Hi all,
I want to create a menu using the CMSCuilder Category menu type and Smarty.
Was trying to do this for a while but without the result I am looking for. Is there somebody who has done this before.
In HTML it must look like :
I also created this structure in CMSBuilder but cannot create the smarty template code to do this.
Thanks for helping!
Kind regards,

Hi Jerry,
I'm not familiar with the smarty template system (I've seen it but don't use it), but I can tell you how to generate the SQL.
There's no method to add class="empty" to certain elements though. You'd need a checkbox or something to indicate that.
What are you trying to create? Like what would the actually menu items be?

We created the menu in PHP code now and pass the complete string to smarty. This works well.
Thanks for yr quick support.
