    heya

    i'm designign a menu control panel for MX CSS Menus in Coldfusion as part of a wider CMS i'm building for a client... i've managed to make a way thru which i can reorder and insert root level menu items in between other parent items.

    However is there a way to make the submenu items to be ordered by a specific field?

    I've made a new column called "category_submenu_order" but i got no idea how to edit the actual MX CSS Menu system to pickup that table and use it to order the submenu items...

    any help muchhhh appreciated! :)

     

    thanks in advance

      Hello,

      The order of the menu elements (for both root level and sub-levels) is given by the ORDER BY condition within the Recordset used by the menu (if generated from database), in the front-end page.

      So you could modify the sql query to use a dynamic parameter in the ORDER BY condition. This parameter can take the value from session, GET or from another Recordset (if you save the value of the ordering column into a database table).

      I hope this helps.

      Regards,
      Ionut
