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.
