Hi List,

I am trying to create a GMENU, where menu-items that represent shortcut-pages are visible, but with their links disabled.

I found several threads that provided some clues, but I haven't succeeded yet. I have tried following:

1) The stdWrap-approach

NO {
nolink = 1
stdWrap.cObject = CASE
stdWrap.cObject {
key.field = doktype
4 = TEXT
default = TEXT
default {
field = nav_title
typolink.parameter.field = uid
typolink.extTarget.field = target
}
}

This disables all links.


2) The globalVar-approach

[globalVar = TSFEage|doktype = 4]
lib.menu_2.1.NO {
noLink = 1
}
[global]

This has no effect.


I would appreciate any help.

cheers,

Mark.

Your first approach looks generally ok. You can probably accomplish
what you want using a CASE cObject [1]. It's like a php switch
statement; you set up options for rendering based on some value--in
this case the value of the doktype field in the page record).

But the first approach wont work with a GMENU since there is no stdWrap
available like in TMENU.

There are allWrap+stdWrap and allstdWrap
Since it's about creating a link for the whole item I guess allStdWrap will
do.

Very cool, guys!

the allStdWrap hint worked – regarding the links. However, now my graphical titles are not rendered anymore...

I guess I would have to add something to allStdWrap to re-enable the rendering of the bitmaps. But how?

Would you be so kind and help me once again? I would really appreciate.

cheers,

Mark.

Here's my code:

NO {
stdWrap.htmlSpecialChars = -1
allStdWrap.cObject = CASE
allStdWrap.cObject {
key.field = doktype
4 = TEXT
4 {
field = nav_title
wrap = <div class="menuL1inactive"> | </div>
}
default = TEXT
default {
field = nav_title
typolink.parameter.field = uid
typolink.extTarget.field = target
wrap = <div class="menuL1off"> | </div>
}
}

XY = 145, 20
backColor = #ffffff
10 = TEXT
10.text.field = title
10.text.crop = 25 | ... | 1
10.fontColor = #333333
10.fontFile = fileadmin/fonts/TheSansRegular.ttf
10.fontSize = 12
10.niceText = 1
10.niceText.sharpen = 0
10.niceText.scaleFactor = 5
10.offset = 0, 16
}

Well - allStdWrap will work, but not if you are using a cObject here, since
this will replace the original cObject, which is a GIFBUILDER element.
It will work, if you use allStdWrap to assign just the typolink and a wrap
to the images generated by the GIFBUILDER.

Something like this:

allStdWrap {
typolink {
parameter {
field = uid
if {
value = 4
equals.field = doktype
negate = 1
# enables typolink only
# if doktype != 4
}
}
}
outerWrap.cObject = CASE
outerWrap.cObject {
key.field = doktype
default = TEXT
default.value = <div class="menuL1off"> | </div>
4 = TEXT
4.value = <div class="menuL1inactive"> | </div>
}
}

Thank you for your suggestion, but unfortunately I can't get it to work. The outerWrap works like a charm, but the links are still active for the shortcut menu-items.

Please correct me if i am wrong: If I understand correctly, the function first checks if the doktype is 4. Through 'negate', the function returns 'false' and the typolink.parameter.field then equals false and the link should not be rendered. Sorry if this sounds silly, but it helps me learn.
So why doesn't this work then?

Mark.
