CMS Menus and collections

Is it possible to use the CMS functionality to build my site menus. I have a menu item for “Services”. Under that there will be things such as Painting, deck repair, concrete, etc. i have md files set up for each of those. Can i populate the menu with a collection so if we want to add a new service?

Also is it possible to have a collection within a collection. For example our concrete page will have 4 or 5 different this we can do with concrete. I would like to have a md file for each concrete services we do and have those listed on the main concrete page. This would also apply to the other service pages. I would like to be able to manage the content with the cms.

Not with the current built-in Component, but it probably is something you could build with a custom component… but that would be very complex :thinking:

@dan thanks for the quick response. I was hoping I could put a collection within an item and the use that to populate the folder for the collection by using the plain text option but no luck.

@Mark_Woolwine Sorry, If you wanted to have main services and sub services, this would be possible, but maybe just separate them out into two different collections; Services, and Concrete Services.

Each item in Concrete Services could include a tag like: concrete

Then on the Concrete page, show a Collection filtered to just items where the tag is concrete.

It’s a little more manual, but in theory, this should work…

I did this this morning dropdown or normal menu, just got home from work, mixed both normal menu and CMS, as far as I got

Happy :shortcake: day @upssjw :partying_face:

not sure what this is for

wow nice thanks, that extra level of support

ok this is the project from the video above, I did not get around to sorting out the mobile menu, it was just proof of concept challenge, not what you probably need

@dan thanks or the info. I was going down this direction. It helps if I create each of the services pages individually. There doesnt seem to be a way to pull in the tag since my services pages are being created using a template.
