Can I create a 2 tier drop down menu system? If so how do I link the sub categories to the main categories and the pages to the sub categories?
Can I create something in Admin so a Manager account can create new single pages which will also appear on the menu system?
Hope this makes sense.
Thanks for a great product.

it prints all pages in on one line but not as a tree
please correct me if i'am wrong, your software is promising, and what about any additions of adding such
a option where you have a menu system that controls your navigation as i saw this a missing point in a lot of cms why not become the better than the others and do that or a least output the code in a list format just like wordpress, i will wait your reply i would but 10 licenses if you are willing to add this option

You can create a tree menu structure with CMS Builder. Each menu link in the tree links to a separate page and the end-user can add pages and change the menu.
Hope that helps. Let me know if you need anything else.

be it single ,multi ,or any other be added to the main navigation in a auto format so that the system outputs
a link my vision is that my customer to be able to create a new page and it will add it to the navigation with out coming back to me to make any mods thats my business model if you could call that were once they setup their cms no need to comeback to me , i will be willing to pay an additional fee to include such an option thank you again

I don't know how we'd build that for you. It might sound simple but there's actually a lot of complexity to it and features and requirements that would come up building it.
Currently customers can add a single page for each menu item. And you could hard code it to have a multi record section for a certain menu item.
Hope that helps!

Hi Dave,
I have created a menu system as in this post which creates a page with links like categoryList.php Cat1-1. How do I create these pages?

You probably just need to change it so it links to your viewer file instead of categoryList.php. Usually you can do this under: Admin > Section Editors > Your Section > Viewer Urls.
Usually for category sections you just need one file.
Hope that helps!
