Main Menu Item of the Link List Type

IN PROGRESS

1 Initial Problem

In the main menu, there is a predefined option to create link lists that are displayed in the slate as fold-out items. The administration currently has such link lists in use. However, users cannot create such lists themselves.

The aim of this feature is for administrators to be able to create their own link lists with items in the main menu, so that users of the main menu can choose from a selection of related links before the link opens the content page and they are referred from there.

current situation in ILIAS 7

2 Conceptual Summary

When creating items, a new type "Link List" should be available. If this type is selected, further items can be added to this link list.
