Hi,

I am currenty working with the new DDR menu. I have a Razor template which outputs every node in an LI. I have two instances of the menu in my skin. One shows all root pages of specified pages (IncludeNodes). The other one should show the children of the current root tab.

The problem is, that the second menu instance shows the children of the Admin and Host tab (and other pages I don't want to show up), even if I specify to not include them (ExcludeNodes="Admin,Host").

How can I configure my menu to

1. only show the subpages with specified parents
2. or don't show the subpages of specified parents

This is my current configuration for the second menu:
<ddr:MENU MenuStyle="Nav/Sub" NodeSelector="+0,0,0" ExcludeNodes="Admin,Host" runat="server" />

Thank you in advance

Thank you for your answer.

I already tried the DUMPXML menustyle. The XML also contains the wrong data.

You can reproduce the error on a standard DNN installation if you add the DDRMenu to the skin (or to the page), configure it to show the subpages of the current root page (NodeSelector="+0,0,0") and set ExcludeNodes to "Admin,Host". If you go to the Admin tab, you will get the admin subpages, although it is configured to not show the Admin tab.

<ddr:MENU MenuStyle="DUMPXML" NodeSelector="+0,0,0" ExcludeNodes="Admin,Host" runat="server" />

Probably, this is not possible with the standard configuration. I think I'll exclude the pages in the razor template.

If you want one top menu and one side menu with the children of the selected main parent item than you keep the menu you already have ( since that will generate a one level uordered list menu

for the sidemenu you use the following

NodeSelector=”+0”
