C# - Menu Displaying Different Menu Items Depending On Access Level
Jul 9, 2010
I'm trying to create an asp menu for a website. The site will have 2 levels of user Master users (which will have more options) and Sub users which will have limited menu options.
I was wonder does anyone knows if a way to hide menu items? I've tried google but I can't really find much.
Here's the Asp code
[Code]....
I have worked out how to hide the whole menu when the user is not logged in
I do not have much experience with asp:menus. How would I be able to make visible or invisible certian pages depending on a factor that I get from a session varaible? I plan on doing this on the backend in VB.net.
my menu control is bound to a sitemap. I would like to be able to customize the second level of the menu (the dynamic level), so that I can insert an item image, link and text. An example is the top menu in [URL]
Is it possible to achieve using asp.net menu and sitemap ? maybe using the dynamic item template of the menu ?
Since I can search any of those categories, I'm looking for a more user-friendly way of displaying it as is without using a combobox and with no javascript. With the combobox, the deeper the menu, the more leading spaces it'll have. As seen above, that's exactly how it'd look like in a combobox.
I have a master page with an unordered list that contains items like, Home, Messages etc.
Now I am working on an EditProfile.aspx page and I want the menu to change and have items like Basic Information, Profile Picture etc. Sort of like facebook. What is the best way to accomplish this...
I am trying to style the menu control to allow the menu items to float to the right of the container, however I am unable to do so as whenever I am styling the a, ul or li it keeps getting overidded by asp.net and floats everything left.
What I want is to show menu items Administrator or show user menu items.Show menu items using login...How I can do it with role provider, control menu and siteMap in masterpage?
I need a help in creating a vertical oriented Menu control with dynamic url's set in there Navigate Url property.Also i need to set the menu items as enable/disable in two different modes say edit/new.
i'm working with asp.net visual studio 2008 c#i'm using Menu and i added items . the first item has like sub-items ...now when i run the website, the Menu wont open the sub-items menu ... this is the code :
I'm using asp.net and css to style a master page with navigation at the top. I was hoping to add the login status control in as a menu item but it is not allowed. Can someone point me in the right direction? When I post my code on this forum do I have to include tags?
I want to create a three level menu, I have got a recursive function today that works with three levels. But the thing is how do i output the third lever? Using two repeaters i have managed to get a hold of the first two levels through the ChildNodes property. But that only gives me the second level. What if a want the third level? Example code below. How do i get the third level? :)
I am looking for multi-level accordion menu (drill down to few levels deeper) (expand and collapsible) for my website. Is there a sample anywhere I can use? it will be nice if I can dock it to the left by clicking on an icon and slide back when I click on the icon again.
I am trying to make TreeView menu with three level deep. I have problems, and can't figure it out how to save TreeView position in third level, when I click it. When I click it in second level, It saves position(expanded), but when I click third level, the whole menu collapses into root level :In my example I search for selected node name, expand it with node.Expand(); .. that is for masternode, but how to expand childnodes of masternode with selectednode name? Just cant figure it out..my code:
I have a Menu control in MasterPage based on web.sitemap file. My website has roles enabled (AspNetWindowsTokenRoleProvider) and uses Windows authentication mode. So, user has to be in a specific Windows Group to be able to access the site. I need to allow some users to see all menu nodes and some restricted set of nodes. How do I do that?
I would like to be able to create, say following Windows groups:
I want to apply a css class to the level 1 menu item (parent) when it or any or it's children are selected. I've looked at MSDN documentation and any number of examples and walkthroughs but I haven't come up with a way of managing this. I was thinking something like this might work but the style is not being applied to the parent. To further complicate matters, if I try to apply a css style to StaticSelectedStyle it doesn't pick it up at all.
I have this control on a page. The selections are static. The "maximumlevels" is set to 6. When I click on an item at the 4th level, I can see the postback occur but the "click" event doesn't fire! I'm totally baffeled. I've tested this in the Page Load event. At this point the PRIOR menu selected value shows. On the next menu_click, the previous selection shows. The first menu item is "selected" and has a value of "Overview". The fourth level item has a value of "Child". No matter how many times I selected that item, my check in the Page Load shows the value to be "Overview". I've tested the 3rd level items and on click, I can see the prior menu item value. When I click a 4th level item, the value never changes from the last 3rd level or higher item selected.
Using an ASP.NET 3.5 menu control set to horizontal, is there a way to specify that only a certain node of the menu displays? For example, let's say I have a vertical menu on the left side of the master page that is tied to a sitemap and displays these nodes. The submenus would be dynamic and only display when the root node is hovered.
Main Page Second Page Sub Menu 1 Page 1 Page 2 Page 3 Sub Menu 2 Page 1 Page 2 Page 3
A certain (powerful) group of my users will always be going straight to the pages in Sub Menu 1 and pretty much never touching the other pages. They would like a sub-master page that is based on the parent master page so that the primary vertical menu and the sitemappath are all still there but the sub-master page will contain a horizontal menu control that only displays the the Sub Menu 1 node, like this:
Sub Menu 1 Page 1 Page 2 Page 3
Is there a way to set up the menu control to start displaying at a certain node level so the parent nodes and sibling nodes aren't displayed or would this require maintaining a separate sitemap file? I hope this makes sense.
I have role assignments on both the first and second level of my menus within my sitemap file. The first level works fine, and I only see items assigned to my role. But roles assignments seem to have no effect on the second level. It seems like if you have access to the first level, you have access to everything on the second level. Is this correct?
From my sitemap (either a SalesRep or an Administrator can see everything underneath): <siteMapNode title="Administration" roles="SalesRep,Administrator" description="Admin" > <siteMapNode title="CompanyMaintenance" roles="SalesRep" url="~/Admin/CompanyManagement.aspx" /> <siteMapNode title="Initialize Roles" roles="Administrator" url="~/Admin/Roles.aspx"/> </siteMapNode>
I need to create 2 level deep menu. The first level is static and horizontal. And i need the second dynamic level to be horizontal. Is there any oprion for dynamic menu item or it can be done by css somehow?
I have a fairly complex web app which has two levels of master page. The top level provides a nav bar constructed from a Menu control across the top of the page. Second level master pages provide menus down the side. It all works well.
On both Menu controls, I need to handle the MenuItemClick event. This works fine on the Menu controls on the second-level master pages. However, the Menu on the top level master does not raise the event at all.
This web site makes extensive use of Ajax and the top-level master page contains the ScriptManager. Before I go to all the work of creating a much simpler test site, why the Menu control is not raising the MenuItemClick event?
Here is the markup for the Menu in the top-level master:
[Code]....
Here is the MenuItemClick event handler:
[Code]....
The logging call in the event handler never gets called. Equivalent code in the Menu on the second-level master does get called.
