Raw

Navigate for Craft CMS

Menu's & navigations made easy.

Easy Address Field

Requirements

This plugin works with Craft CMS 3.x, 4.x and 5.x

Installation

To install the plugin, follow these instructions.

    cd /path/to/project
    composer require studioespresso/craft-navigate
    ./craft install/plugin navigate

Templating

craft.navigate.raw

craft.navigate.raw will give you an array of the items you added to the navigation, with children for each if you have those. For each node you will have access to:

{% set nav = craft.navigate.raw('navHandle') %}
{% for node in nav %}
	{{ node.name }}
	{{ node.url }}
	{{ node.classes }}
	{{ node.blank }}
	{{ node.children }}
{% endfor %}

This gives you complete control over the HTML & CSS used to display your navigation.

Here's an example of how to show a navigation and it's possible children using a twig macro:

{% import _self as macros %}
{% macro renderNode(node) %}
    {% import _self as macros %}
    <li class="{% if node.classes|length %}{{ node.classes }}{% endif %}">
        <a  href="{{ node.url }}" class="{% if node.active %}active{% endif %}" 
        {% if node.blank %}target="_blank" rel="noopener"{% endif %}>{{ node.name }}
        </a>
        {% if node.children|length %}
            <ul>
            {% for child in node.children %}
                {{ macros.renderNode(child) }}
            {% endfor %}
            </ul>
        {% endif %}
    </li>
{% endmacro %}

<div>
    <ul>
    {% for node in nodes %}
        {{ macros.renderNode(node) }}
    {% endfor %}
    </ul>
</div>

Headings

Since 2.3.0, headings can be added to make it easier to build larger navigations with mulitple sections or columns. To make full use of this you check check node.type == "heading" and add the html you need in the condition.

These only work on multiple levels (eg: 3 headings on the top level, each with navigation items on deeper levels).

Configuration

You can create a file called navigate.php in the config directory (you can copy this one to start) to manage these settings in your code. The ones listed here are not available through the CP.

Disabling caching

Out of the box, the plugin will cache the querries it makes when devMode is not enabled.

If you want to disable caching within the plugin entirely, you can do so by setting disableCaching to true in the plugin's configuration file. (see example here)

CSS class option list

Instead of the "Classes" field being a plain text field, you can also change it to a predefined dropdown with class that you want to make available for the user. The nodeClasses setting takes an array where that contains "Class to be applied" => "Label to be shown in the cp".

"nodeClasses" => [
    '' => '---',
    'nav nav-primary' => "Primary",
    'nav nav-highlight' => 'Highlight'
]

Make sure to also include an empty option in case you don't want the the first item to be selected by default
