Sidebar with Categories & Posts
3 replies · Started by Rick on March 23, 2023
Hi there! I have a generatepress website that has 600+ pages explaining how functions work in a programming language.
Currently those are presented as posts but don't have a clear navigation. To improve user experience I would really like to add a sidebar that shows a collapsed overview of all Categories. Then when people click on a category, I'd like it to open up and show the post name.
Some inspiration
Microsoft does this in a great way: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powerquery-m/table-lastn
Also DAX guide has a great presentation of this: https://dax.guide/
Do you have a suggestion on how to achieve something similar?
Hi Rick,
I don't think there's an easy way to achieve this layout, especially when URL changes, the accordion in the sidebar stays at the same place.
It will require custom development.
I'll see if I can find a developer :)
Thanks Ying.
Hi there,
as a basis you can use the snippet and CSS i have in one of my own GISTS:
