Quicknav only showing on Sub-menu pages

Hi everyone

 

I have a problem with the Quicknav extension (https://github.com/cgkineo/adapt-quicknav).

Unless I'm doing it wrong the navigation-bar only shows on pages that are sub-pages of a sub-menu, and not on pages that are sub-pages of the main menu.

Why is that?

Is there anyone else that have had the same problem?

 

Thanks Henrik

Sorry I've never used it in that kind of configuration before

I've found the same thing too. The quicknav seems to work on pages at the same level.

So if you have only pages and no sub-menus it works as expected.Or if you have pages all at the same level of sub-menu it traverses between them all too.

There is a branch of the plug-in on github that provides a fix.

This branch in my testing places the quicknav on all pages as expected but seems traverse between submenus but only up. So with structure:

Page 1

Section 1 - page 2

Section 2 - page 3

Page 4

The Quicknav next button goes from Page 1 -> Page 2 -> Page 3 then cycles between Page 2 and Page 3

But, you can use the global manual setting in contentObjects.json to get from page 3 to page 4: eg

 "_global": { //change the flow for global continuous
        "_pageNext":"co-10", // remove if to follow normal flow set to id of page 4 in our example
        "_pagePrevious": "co-10" // remove if to follow normal flow
},

But, i don't think these options are available in the authoring tool.

Hope this helps

Joe
