Working example of how to use the navigation as sitemap:
The navigation code:
<!--- sitemap navigation --->
<skin:genericNav navID="E689D721-B6C9-605B-DE1D813E4CDA3339"
depth="2"
id="sitemap"
bActive="true"
bIncludeHome="true">
Here you see a static id, that is the id of the homepage, you can
check it by going to the admin site tab and click home, or you can
use:
<cfdump var="#request.navid#">
<cfabort>
above the navigation code you want to use.
I used depth="2" as i only need that depth, adjust when needed.
Further you see that the id is set to sitemap, that points to this
CSS:
/* ============================= sitemap ====================== */
#sitemap li.active { font-weight:bold; decoration:none}
#sitemap li.active li {font-weight:bold}
Of course you can do whatever you want with the CSS, i just used it
like this.
Kept bActive="true" and bIncludeHome="true" as also in the sitemap i
want to show visitors where they are and show the entire navigation
hierarchy inclusive the home item.
Many thanks to all that helped!
Cheers
