Displaying only child menu items of parent menu items in sidebar
3 replies · Started by Mike on June 29, 2017
This is a bit tricky. Has anybody experimented with or found an easy way to display only the child menu items of a given parent menu item in sidebars?
I have a preference on hard-coding than using a plugin to limit bloat. But if hard-coding is complicated then a plugin will have to do.
Here's a visual presentation of what I'm trying to achieve:
This is the normal navigation menu structure. We are focusing on the RENTING & BUYING > BUYING IN LONDON structure here:
When you click on the Aquisitions Case Studies submenu item, this is what comes up on that page's sidebar:
As you can see, it shows all the child menu items of RENTING & BUYING as tabs/nested menu within the sidebar.
Can this be achieved easily?
Hi there,
I believe this user was looking for the same thing but unfortunately it's not easily achievable.

Thank you for the reference Leo. I managed to get it to work the way I wanted using the hard-coded method as per link Tom suggested. I'm not sure why Les was not able to implement it.
Here's a screenshot of what I achieved after some CSS tweaks:
