Vivienne van Velzen	Thursday 24 April 2003 5:24:51 am After ploughing through the forum and not finding a solution I decided to ask for help ;) My situation is as follows. I've placed a navigation menu on the left side of my site, that shows the top-folders and one level lower (i.e. mycompany, mycompany->news, etc). The top-folders all have a different section assigned to them with their own template (primarily colorscheme changes here). The subfolders have the same section assigned as their parent, so they have the same colorscheme. Now I want to hide the mycompany->news link. I can't limit my fetch on section, because there are more folders with this section that I DO want to show. Same with classes. This also excludes the possibility to use roles to hide the folder (which I didn't want to do anyway). Quite a long story to lead to my question: Isn't there some checkbox with which you can hide certain elements from the visitors to your site (sort of an active/non-active option)? Or an attribute that can be checked on? TIA, Vivienne

You may need to extend the classes with such an attribute. hth Paul eZ Publish, eZ Find, Solr expert consulting and training http://twitter.com/paulborgermans

Yes, you can check on attributes, not the directly in the fetch function, but in a loop on the fetch results and display or do something else with it. You may need to extend the classes with such an attribute.

Thanks Paul,
