Contao Sidebar Navigation
=========================

[](#contao-sidebar-navigation)

This module contains the template and the css/sass/js source for a multilevel drop-down/slide-down sidebar navigation. No jQuery required!

[![sidebar navigation](https://github.com/markocupic/markocupic/raw/main/contao-sidebar-navigation/contao-sidebar-navigation.gif)](https://github.com/markocupic/markocupic/blob/main/contao-sidebar-navigation/contao-sidebar-navigation.gif)

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Go to the Contao Backend and select the **mod\_navigation\_sidebar.html5** template.

Pages with subpages
-------------------

[](#pages-with-subpages)

If you click on a page in the navigation that has subpages, you will not be linked to the corresponding page. Instead, the submenu opens with the corresponding subpages.

Notice!
-------

[](#notice)

This extension contains only a minimal style sheet.

This extension replaces the no more maintained extension [markocupic/sidebar\_navigation](https://github.com/markocupic/sidebar_navigation).
