Advanced template tags

SiteTree introduces two advanced template tags which you have to deal with in case you override the built-in sitetree templates.

sitetree_children

Implements down the tree traversal with rendering.

Example

1
{% sitetree_children of someitem for menu template "sitetree/mychildren.html" %}

Used to render child items of specific sitetree item someitem for menu navigation type, using template sitetree/mychildren.html.

Allowed navigation types:

  1. menu
  2. sitetree

Basically template argument should contain path to current template itself.

sitetree_url

Resolves site tree item's url or url pattern.

Example

1
{% sitetree_url for someitem params %}

This tag is much the same as Django built-in url tag. The difference is that after for it should get site tree item object.

It can cast the resolved URL into a context variable when using as clause just like url tag.
