Hello Karl, I've tried to show all my submenu in my gallery

http://gallery.kog.it

but it seems that the initial gallery load is a bit slower.

Can you tell me if showing all the year's submenu can make the site slower when you go there for the first time? It's a good solution?

Thanks!

Yes, it will take much more processing when processing pages the first time after you make an edit. This is because it has to loop through all folders and collect data. It will be fine once the menu gets cached once though.

Not sure. Your menu is quite crowded now and it's hard to navigate and find anything ... Especially on small mobile devices. In my opinion, you should "hide children" for the YEAR categories ... It is probably more functional to find specific events directly from within page listings.

That was before but all my members asked to have such a navigation so I've modified it...

Maybe I can hide childres and publish a page with a sort of gallery map so anyone can find what searched fast...

I won't argue that. It would perhaps be easier to find items if you used the mega menu LIST feature?

Yes, perhaps. There is no native function for that currently in X3, although a "searchable sitemap" could be an interesting feature to add later.

I'm doing manually a thing like that one

If there would be such a feature, would be very interesting

Karl in that page when I click on a link it open in a new window. There a mean to avoid that?

All the link are in this way

Yes. Use root-absolute links, so X3 understands you are trying to open internal X3 links. If you use HTTP, X3 will think it's an external URL.
