Section - Article = 2 levels, but what if you need more? - Joomla! Forum - community, help and support
hi all, starting @ joomla (very cool far!). "section" , "article" structure great if modeling 1 layer deep. ideal simple structure newspaper: sports -> sports articles, business -> business articles, etc.
but how model multi-level domain following?
industry
- aerospace
- company a
- product a
- assembly 1
- assembly 2
- assembly 3
- product z
- service x
- practice a
- practice b
- service y
- defense
- company level
- product level
- sub level
- sub level
what best practice, how close seeming gap between canned functionality , desired functionality? thank you.

you have "categories" fall under each section...
section->category-> article
unfortunately thats far joomla goes. careful use of structure *does* allow achieve more depth. example, can create 1 section called "animals". can create more sections "birds" , "fish", etc, contain categories , articles... sections called "birds" , "fish" aren't technically "under" section called "animals", end user, result same:
a page displaying "animals" section displays links sections called "fish" , "birds" display links "trout" , "hawks".
hope isn't confusing... suggestion download copy of joomla , mess around dummy site... you'll understand it.
