Hi,

In my app, I need to hide the channels so that they don't
appear in the normal navigation, however, I need to view
the channels in summary navigation in the body of my page.

When I use the hide when published, I can see them in my
main navigation and summary navigation when I am logged
in as a channel admin. When I log in as a subscriber, I
can't see them in main navigation (which is what I want)
but I can't see them in summary either (not what I want).

To get my channels, I am using a..

foreach(Channel c in ch)

(or foreach(ChannelItem ci in c))

These foreach are to build my summary navigation.

How can I view the channels?

I am using CMS2002

Thanks.
Dave Colliver.

Hi Dave,

you need to set the following setting before retrieving the hidden items.

CmsHttpContext.SessionSettings.AutoFilterHidden = false;

After you finished you need to switch it back (don't forget this!) using

CmsHttpContext.SessionSettings.AutoFilterHidden = true;

Cheers,
Stefan.

Hi Stefan,

Thanks for this. Just after I posted this question, I found this and tried
it, however, it is working wierd...

I turn it on immediately before I need it and it doesn't want to work. If I
don't turn it off, just the first level of channels appears, the second
level doesn't and it ONLY appears in the main navigation menu, NOT the
summary where I turned it on. If I turn it off immediately after where I
want it to work, then I get nothing. Really wierd.

I will have another play with it in the morning.

BTW. My other issue, trying to get a default page to appear using that
GetAuthoringNewUrl function. What I didn't know was that I needed to pass
the output of that into a string, however, this still was not what I needed.
I effectively had to create a posting, using the template, and approve it.

Best regards,
Dave.
