Hi,

I have nodes of a custom cck kind. I would like a menu to the left with the last 5 elements of those nodes for instance. With just the title, and when we click on the title we have the node displayed.

Is this possible?

Perhaps I can create a view with the node title, but then I should be able to add this view as a menu and dunno if this is possible.

Thanks

You can make a list view as a block and then style to look like other menus.

Thanks I'll do that. Is there a way to have those block items look like as they are in a menu, so as they are submenus of a main menu, which is collapsed by default and open when we click on it ?

Not than I am aware of. I was thinking in terms of a separate standalone menu.

That's what I'm doing right now: created a view with a block style display to output a list of links.
That works quite nice, with one obvious exception: there's no way to mark currently active menu items with a special class like ".active-trails".
I can't think of a way to change this but, as hope dies last, maybe someone can come up with a suggestion to solve this?

Hi I have the same problem.
In my project I have 2 coloumns:
users (a view)
nodes created by the selected user (views with arg)

Does anybody know how to create an active-trails for this "menus"?
