Hello experts,

I am building a new skin for a new DNN6.1.1 website. The final hurdle is the menu configuration. This website has a horizontal and a vertical menu. The horizontal menu displays the root pages/nodes (level 0) and the vertical menu the children of the selected root page (level 1).

In the past I used the DNN360 menu which worked well. For this new skin I want use the standard DDR menu, configured as DNN menu. The horizontal menu works fine, but I cannot figure out the correct settings for the vertical  menu.

I use this line to display the level 1 nodes: 

<ddr:VERTICALMENU1 ID="VERTICALMENU1" runat="server" MenuStyle="DNNMenu" NodeSelector="0,0,1">

Works great if there is only one level, but I want at least 2 levels. The children of the level 1 should be displayed as well. I managed to do this but (by using the "current node" in the node selector) but this fails when I select a level 2 node, the menu displays only the level 2 nodes. What I want is that the menu always displays the level-1 sibling nodes and its children.

Please help!

Thanks in advance
Jos Driessens

So if I am getting it correctly in your  vertical menu you want all the children of the root element then you can use this nodeselector

NodeSelector="RootChildren"

Thanks Armand,

I can't believe that it is so simple. Anyway, it works!

Kind regards
