[[Wayfinder?
    &startId=`0`
    &level=`2`
    &contexts=`backoffice,web`
    &scheme=`full`
    &outerTpl=`tpl.Wayfinder.outer`
    &parentRowTpl=`tpl.Wayfinder.row.parent`
    &innerRowTpl=`tpl.Wayfinder.row.inner`
    &rowTpl=`tpl.Wayfinder.row`                   
]]

Requirements

This works ONLY if you have done the following:

  • Added a site_url setting in the default system systems pointed to the "web" context domain name : http://www.domain.tld/ (don't forget the slash)
  • Added a site_start setting in each context pointing the context's home page
  • Added a site_url setting in each context with the domain for that context: http://subdomain.domain.tld/ (don't forget the slash)

Comments

The scheme will build a full url for each link based on the context setting site_url, in this way you can have multiple contexts in one menu.
