I'm trying to figure out how to display custom menus in my layout file. We use both Dynamic Menus and Guides and would like to display them in a given area, the same way that the default layout does. I'm not sure the markup for it.

I know it should be something along the lines of <!-- System:Menu:Guides --> or something, but that does not seem to work, or rather I should say it places a menu called Guides, however it's not populated with the guides we have set up.

Any suggestions?

You're very close. What you'll want to do, is actualy specify <!--System:Menu:MenuCategory-->

So, if you have your Guide Categories are called, say "Class Guides", you'd specify it as <!--System:Menu:Class Guides-->

Hopefully that helps you out.

Well that makes sense

Now, I tried to do this before. The thing is, the name of the section I was trying to display had a slash (/) in it. When I would preview the site with the layout, it would be horribly broken (as if the layout file was not even applied). I figured I was doing something wrong. I've since chosen to not use slashes as my section names so that works...

Thanks for the quick response!
