Navigation tag help

Ruby Apps Radiant CMS
1

Just joined the list. Let me first say what a great app Radiant seems
to be. Good job.

I’m using the following navigation tag snippet:

The problem is that “home” is always being classified as ‘here’. All
other urls work properly.

Do I have the syntax wrong?

Thanks,

Steve

No. This is a limitation of the navigation tag. You can work around the
problem by using a set of navigation tags:

<r:navigation urls=“home: /”>
<r:normal>

  • <r:title />
    • </r:normal>
    <r:here>
  • <r:title />
    • </r:here>
    <r:selected>
  • <r:title
    />
    • </r:selected>
    <r:between></r:between>
    </r:navigation>
    <r:navigation urls="learn: /learn/; news: /news/; join: /

    join/; about: /about/">
    <r:normal>

  • <r:title />
    • </r:normal>
    <r:here>
  • <r:title />
    • </r:here>
    <r:selected>
  • <r:title />
    • </r:selected>
    <r:between></r:between>
    </r:navigation>

    Way too verbose, I know. If someone has a better idea for a set of tags
    for this let me know.

    Don’t know if it’s any better, but I use if_url and unless_url for
    the home page link:

    <r:navigation urls="Products: /products/; Services: /services/;

    Contact Us: /contact-us/;">
    <r:normal>

  • <r:title />
    • </r:normal>
    <r:here>
  • <r:title />
    • </r:here>
    <r:selected>
  • <r:title /

    • </r:selected>
    </r:navigation>
