Change Page Content from Sidebar Menu
PermalinkI know how to do this with autonav and individual pages for each category. I was wondering how one would do the same thing on a single page. If someone could point me in the right direction I'd appreciate it. As it is now I have no idea where to start, look, or read ... or if it's even possible.
Thanks all ...
I'm not quite up to making my own blocks etc but hope to get there one day. I take it from your comments that this functionality can't be achieved using C5 standard blocks. If so I'll just make separate pages for each category for now and make a future enhancement when I am more knowledgeable.

"List Files from Set"

Perhaps you could create a different set for each category. It still probably involves some coding, but probably a lot less than a new block from scratch. I'd suggest experimenting with it.
By paying a small amount, you could try using this one with a lot of options including attribute integration.http://webli.us/add-ons/file-list...
Sometimes the support from a paid add-on can help.
I would probably approach this by creating a File Attribute (select, single value only). Then in the single page controller get all the values for that Attribute and output them in your sidebar as links to this page along with a value to be passed into the view function. In the view function do a FileList filtered by that attribute and the value passed in from the sidebar link and then pass the files found to the view and output them in the main area.
