I posted this on the DNN forums, but I thought I would see if Child Links can handle this:

I have 1 top level menu that has 5 root level items ,plus admin and host menu. Those five items link to pages that have a further navigation structure. For instance, one of the root menu items is named "Tools". When you get the tools page, I want to see all the child links, two levels down, in the page's content pane.


Communication Tools (1 level down from tools)
----------------------
page a  page b (2 levels down)
page c  page d
page f  page g

Operation Tools (1 level down from tools)
----------------------
Page x  page y (2 levels down)
page z

 Here is a better example of the concept (not to scale)

You can set child links to use another page's children, this would allow you to select any page on your site.

It only displays 1 level down though, did you want the links indented or something?

I think the module will work Scott. What I will do is create a root level item called tools, with three pages under that : ToolGroup1, ToolGroup2, ToolGroup3. Each of those will have children pages under them.

When you click on the root Tools page, it will have three child links module set like the image above. The only thing that i am curious about is if the parent can be a link too. In the example above I would like to have the ToolGroups text as a link. Possible?
