Drupal: automatically add menu items when adding new nodes

Question

Is it possible to automatically add a menu item when I add a node to a page in Drupal?

In other words, is it possible to associate a parent menu item with a node content type and then automatically add children if new nodes are added?

thank

Answer 1

Yes.

I'm sure there is a module for something like that, but you can also create your own.

There are two ways to do this.

hook_menu() . , node, hook_nodeapi().  . , .

hook_nodeapi() menu_link_save().

Edit

hook_menu , , , .

, node, , , .

:

function example_menu() {
  $result = db_query('select * from node where ...'); // put in your own select items and where clause
  $menu = array();
  while ($row = db_fetch_object($result)) {
    $menu['my_path/' . $row->nid;] = array(
      // See hook menu docs for what to put here.
    );
  }
  return $menu;
}

Menu Views is an interesting module for Drupal 7 for automatically creating menu links. It allows you to use the power of Views to create links to menus and can be used out of the box in combination with modules such as Superfish and Nice menus .

(PS: my reputation is not high enough to provide more than two links, so I highlighted the other modules in bold instead of providing hyperlinks)
