Create Menu Items from Directory Structure

Hi Folks,

Can anyone tell me, or supply code, that can dynamically populate an existing Milonic menu with sub-menus based on the contents of a specific directory, with each sub-directory being a new submenu. The last submenu in any cascade needs to show the contents of the sub-directory. (Without file extensions would be great, but not critical)

It is a very complicated directory structure containing all the Company documentation required by the users, and as this documentation changes constantly, trying to hard-code menu items will be a never ending process.

Our Milonic licence no is 201460, and the company is Park Resorts.

Any help would really be appreciated, as without this functionality the menu is of no value to us.

Hi

one option is
you need to get the directory/file structure loaded into a SQL database. From there you create the js menu, please see:

Hi

another option


Your hint



is not really acceptable, considering that requirements for updating for instance the treemenu/collapsable menu which is recommended for this type of application, is really done in a comfortable and quick way, more or less by copy and paste code and editiing the relevant url(s).
