changing get_navigation

[scrawler]

Hi guys,

I'm a newbie just trying out getsimple for the first time. So far so good.

I want to use

Code:

<?php get_navigation(return_page_slug()); ?>

But I'd rather have it return plain links than list items and links. How can I change this?

thanks!

Well you would have to make your own function to do that.
You could always simply style the list to look the same as links.

Anyway...

1. Create a text file named mynavigation.php and paste this (a slightly modified version of GS's get_navigation) into it:

PHP Code:

<?php

// register plugin
$thisfile = basename(__FILE__, ".php");
register_plugin(
    $thisfile,
    'My Navigation','0.1','...','#','...'
);

function get_my_navigation($currentpage) {
    $menu = '';
    global $pagesArray;
    $pagesSorted = subval_sort($pagesArray,'menuOrder');
    if (count($pagesSorted) != 0) { 
        foreach ($pagesSorted as $page) {
            $sel = ''; $classes = '';
            $url_nav = $page['url'];
            if ($page['menuStatus'] == 'Y') { 
                if ("$currentpage" == "$url_nav") { $classes = "current active ". $page['parent'] ." ". $url_nav; } else { $classes = trim($page['parent'] ." ". $url_nav); }
                if ($page['menu'] == '') { $page['menu'] = $page['title']; }
                if ($page['title'] == '') { $page['title'] = $page['menu']; }
                $menu .= '<div class="'. $classes .'"><a href="'. find_url($page['url'],$page['parent']) . '" title="'. encode_quotes(cl($page['title'])) .'">'.strip_decode($page['menu']).'</a></div>'."\n";
            }
        }
        
    }
    echo exec_filter('menuitems',$menu);
}
// end of file 


2. Upload the file to your plugins folder. Activate it.

3. Edit your template and replace:

Code:

<ul>
<?php get_navigation(return_page_slug()); ?>
</code>
[/php]

by:

[code]
<?php get_my_navigation(return_page_slug()); ?>

I'm not sure if I understood well. It reders div tags instead of li's. If it's not what you want, it's easy to customize.

Thank you, that did the trick.

I tried to find GS's get_navigation so tha I could modify it or at least look at it, but I couldn't find it.

For future reference, where is it?

You could also use mvlcek's i18n plugin and custom render the navigation with a component (which saves you needing to create your own plugin whilst giving you all of the benefits of i18n).
