Hello Drupalers,

Please, I need your help on a problem.

I try to create in my Drupal site a dynamic menu (Where Item's links change depending on pages).

Here is the idea :

I try to put in my site a range of vehicles, each page of vehicle has its own menu, the menu contains the following items :

  • General Presentation
  • Photo Gallery
  • Prices

There are several models of vehicles, it would mean that each vehicle must have its own page and its own menu.

That would be silly of course to create a menu for each vehicle, it would be a waste of time and updates will be a real burden!

Is there a Drupal module to do this ?
Can views module helps to create this dynamic menu ?.

Thanks a lot for your help !

Hi quicksand,

try this concept :

in your hook_menu add url with something like this :

/vehicle/%/% -> ex url: /vehicle/honda/civic

for this menu item specify the page callback and page arguments something like this :

'page callback' => 'vehicle_page_render',
'page arguments' => array(2,3), -> explained : argument 2 for type (honda), and argument 3 for model (civic)

in your function vehicle_page_render will be this one :

function vehicle_page_render($type, $model) {
........ code here to render the page per vehicle model depend on the parameters.
}

Please let me know if you have questions : michael@project-ekimo.com
