Hi
I am currently fighting with my TW to change site navigation away from beeing displayed on left, because this consumes permanent space.

I did some experiments which does not satisfy me so I searched for a while find lots of pages which shows my future design intend (TiddlyWikis and conventional WEB-Pages).

Here is a TiddlyWiki page which show my intension very good but it has too much features: http://twt-treeview-executive.tiddlyspot.com/

This here is a simple but good conventional WEB-page: http://www.lapis.de/, which show most of that what I am thinking about.

I hope there a simple way of implementing, may be a single PLUGIN or a colletion of them?
 
Thanks for feedback.
HansG

Hi Hans,
You could start with MPTW http://mptw.tiddlyspot.com/ which has a top
menu and some more interesting stuff.

Hi Mario,
 
thank you for your response and link.
I have downloaded this TW already. As I started the TW I did not fond the naviagtion seen on the WEB-Link.
Beacuse I did not found any documentation how to setup this, I have no idea how start with.
 
To illustrate the navigation I attached a screenshot of an example WEB-Site (attached).
 
Kind regards

The top menu is in a tiddler named: MainMenu. If you edit this one
you'll get your own links.

Hi PMario,
many thanks for your link to Tobias Beers Macro.
This page is shows most of that what I want to implement in my TW.
I just imported this Plugin but finally I did not find a way or documentation how to setup/configure this function. -Very frustrating.
Have you any idea or an example to setup Menus using this Plugin?
 
Thank you in advance.

Nope not really.
Just can have a look at: http://tobibeer.tiddlyspace.com/#MainMenu
text.

eg: one element in MainMenu is:
<<popup Plugins [[<<tiddler Plugins$))]] arrow:''>>

====

The "Plugins" tiddler contains a transclusion
<<tiddler Latest with: Plugins modified>>

and a "title formatted" tiddler link element.
{{title{[[List of all plugins...|All Plugins]]}}}

====

the "Latest" tiddler contains a <<tiddlerList ..>> macro call.
<<tiddlerList tags:"$1" top:"10" dateFormat:"0DD.mmm:"
itemTemplate:"*[[%$2 %title|%title]] \n" order:"-$2">>

The parameters of this macro can be seen in the "Documentation Link".
See the macro header.

====
Since the different "top menu" items are created with the help of
different "list type" macros, you'll need to investigate.
It's a bit like following the bread crumbs ... sry about that ;)

Some more info about << tiddler xxx with: abc>> can be found here:
http://tiddlywiki.org/#%5b%5btiddler%20macro%5d%5d


@Tobias can you jump in ??

Hi Hans,

The DropDownMenuPlugin from Saq Imtiaz [1] may be of interest for you.
Very easy to implement.

Cheers,

Ton
