This document contains answers to the most frequently asked questions about the organization of the menu in Wayfinder. Newcomers recommended!

Simple call option

[[Wayfinder? & startId = `15`]], where 15 is the folder from which
we need to display documents in the menu

Using

When the menu is displayed for a specific section. For the main
menu site is used exactly this option.

The resulting menu code

Unnumbered list.
')

Notes

• The level parameter defaults to 0 (show all published
  documents).
• To display all documents starting with
  first level, you must specify & startId = `0`.

Child documents

[[Wayfinder?
& startId = `[* id *]`]], where [* id *] is automatically replaced
on the current document ID.

Using

When displaying internal subsections of the current section
site. Can be used inside the page content.

The resulting menu code

In the form of an unordered list.

Note

If the current page does not contain child documents, then
the menu is not displayed (including the code of the opening list)

Neighboring documents / sections

[[Wayfinder?
& startId = `[* parent *]`]], where [* parent *] is automatically replaced
Parent ID
current document.

Using

When displaying documents that are in the same
section as the current document.

The resulting menu code

Unnumbered list.

Note

[* parent *]
at the main page is 0.

Site Map

[[Wayfinder? & startId = `0`]]

Using

To display all documents of the site that are marked for
output in the menu.

The resulting menu code

Multi-level unnumbered list.

Note

Check the results for documents that are not
displayed in the main menu, but can get into the site map. Since the tick
“Show in menu” is on by default, you can accidentally skip
official documents (search results, page 404, RSS, etc.)

Menu icons

In the & rowTpl template
add code where [+ wf.docid +] after processing
replaced by ID
document. Thus, for each specific document we can specify
your icon.

Notes

• This method does not contain a preliminary check.
  the presence of a picture, so if it is absent, the site will be shown
  "Broken" picture.
• To exclude broken pictures you can do
  connection through the CSS class, but you have to register it for each
  item.
