socceronly Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 It would be really great if you could use a Database Category menu on the sidebar .... Would be a great way for people to discover things. Is there anything like that in the Marketplace anyone has come across? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opentype Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 Not sure I understand the question. You can put the Database Category widget in the sidebar. But you want to put it somewhere else, like the forums for example? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meddysong Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 I suspect he means "on any other sidebar and not only the page which features the database itself". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opentype Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 It sounds somewhat confusing. After all, it is a submenu, not a content discovery tool. And it’s a global feature, which also appears as submenu in other areas, e.g. here: https://invisioncommunity.com/files/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
socceronly Posted April 18, 2019 Author Share Posted April 18, 2019 I can't see why you wouldn't want a block on the forum sidebar with a menu that took you to the Articles by category. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ibaker Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 Did you ever resolve this as it is exactly what I need as well. I have so many sections that I have grouped some of them together so my main menu item for say "Resources" goes to a Resources page which is the landing page (home page) for 4 different sub sections of my site - for example the Files section, a Tools and Calculators database, a Tutorial database and another database. On my Resources landing page I also have widgets showing the last few entries of each of the different 4 sections to show a taste of each of them. So it would be good to have a category menu block in the right column for each of these database sections and 1 for the Files section as a type of menu for the user to go straight to a category. Each of the 4 sections do come up as a sub menu of the landing page as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
