I have to agree David. One place where I worked they had ridicoulous multi-level stuff like this and they wanted to be exactly ported into Liferay that way.  We proposed a redesign to make more usable but they insisted it had to be exactly like the legacy system. Sometimes you just can't win. In those cases a change scenario maybe the right answer.

<p>10 levels?</p> <p>That's rediculous.  Get yourself a UX expert and they can explain why.</p>

The following updates may help with being more responsive and includes a small bug I corrected.

I can control that through css to not display levels 2 and 3 for certain media sizes.

Hi..thank you for fast response...as a suggestion, for mobile you can simply use exactly like level 1 from default liferay navigation..just simple collapse...

gnp present 2017-07-17T20:18:21Z William Gosse https://liferay.dev/c/message_boards/find_message?p_l_id=119785294&messageId=91908525 2017-07-17T19:46:27Z 2017-07-17T19:46:27Z

Yes multi-level menus not really great for mobile. I&#39;m still working on how it can work in mobile. I was thinking of incorporating a simple list display. Definitely open to suggestion on that.

Also some more styling and non browseable nav items, page sets, are no longer selectable.

I updated my attachments with some refinements which include going down to 3 levels deep and dealing with page sets, which are not browseable nav items.

I found where the navigation portlet ADTs were in the source tree:<br />liferay-ce-portal-src-7.0-ga4\modules\apps\web-experience\site-navigation\site-navigation-menu-web\src\main\resources\com\liferay\site\navigation\menu\web\portlet\template\dependencies&gt;C:\Dev4\liferay-ce-portal-src-7.0-ga4\modules\apps\web-experience\site-navigation\site-navigation-menu-web\src\main\resources\com\liferay\site\navigation\menu\web\portlet\template\dependencies<br /><br />This folder contains the following files:<br />06/13/2017 05:53 PM 4,675 portlet-display-templates.xml<br />06/13/2017 05:53 PM 680 portlet_display_template_list_menu.ftl<br />06/13/2017 05:53 PM 3,398 portlet_display_template_navbar_blank.ftl<br />06/13/2017 05:53 PM 3,308 portlet_display_template_navbar_blank_justified.ftl<br />06/13/2017 05:53 PM 3,307 portlet_display_template_navbar_default.ftl<br />06/13/2017 05:53 PM 1,389 portlet_display_template_navigation_menu_macro.ftl<br />06/13/2017 05:53 PM 3,275 portlet_display_template_nav_pills.ftl<br />06/13/2017 05:53 PM 3,290 portlet_display_template_nav_pills_justified.ftl<br />06/13/2017 05:53 PM 3,288 portlet_display_template_nav_pills_stacked.ftl<br />06/13/2017 05:53 PM 3,275 portlet_display_template_nav_tabs.ftl<br />06/13/2017 05:53 PM 3,294 portlet_display_template_nav_tabs_justified.ftl<br />06/13/2017 05:53 PM 2,715 portlet_display_template_split_button_dropdowns.ftl<br /><br />I copied and modified the portlet_display_template_nav_pills.ftl file and then uploaded it using the Manage Display Templates link/editor in the navigation portlet&#39;s configuration dialog. This gave me a new display template that can go down 3 levels deep now.<br /><br />I&#39;ve attached the ftl, css and image of what it looks like in action if anyone is interested. Thanks again for the ADT tip.

I mean, when you create a new instance the database is populated with them, so I&#39;m sure they originate somewhere in the source, but I don&#39;t know if they are in a form that you can just copy from code and paste into ADT editor. Most of the time I just go to the ADTs and pull them up there, then you can use those to copy...<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Come meet me at <a href="https://www.eventbrite.com/e/liferay-devcon-2017-registration-29348597445">Devcon 2017</a> or <a href="https://www.eventbrite.com/e/liferay-symposium-north-america-2017-registration-28398031276">2017 LSNA!</a>

Thanks all for this info. It clears a lot up for me.<br /><br />Again I&#39;m looking to customize the navigation portlet or more specifically one of its existing ADTs. Where can I find the existing ADTs for the navigation portlet in the Liferay source tree. It looks like these are just freemaker templates which is great. I assume these templates are part of the source tree.

Right I see that in the Control Panel that a custom ADT can be loaded. Are these ADTs located in the source tree somewhere? I&#39;m assuming they can be copied and modified and then uploaded.

Yeah, sorry for throwing the acronym at you, but Russell found it for you...<br /><br />Liferay&#39;s moving a lot more towards using ADTs for supporting most of the OOTB portlet displays to reduce need on JSP fragment bundles.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Come meet me at <a href="https://www.eventbrite.com/e/liferay-devcon-2017-registration-29348597445">Devcon 2017</a> or <a href="https://www.eventbrite.com/e/liferay-symposium-north-america-2017-registration-28398031276">2017 LSNA!</a>
