Display section names on article page

Answered

  • Hi Meghan, in order to display Other Sections from the same category automatically, you need to create a script that uses Zendesk API. You can do it on your own, if you are familiar with this.

    We can also help you with this customization, but we don't customize standard themes or themes made by other developers. So it's important that you use one of our Zendesk themes

    Hey @Meghan Mahar,

    Go to your article template and replace the code from line no. 8 with the code below,

    <div class="article-container" id="article-container">
    <section class="article-sidebar">
    <section class="section-articles collapsible-sidebar">
    <h3 class="collapsible-sidebar-title sidenav-title">{{t 'articles_in_section'}}</h3>
    <ul>
    {{#each section.articles}}
    <li>
    <a href="{{url}}" class="sidenav-item {{#is id ../article.id}}current-article{{/is}}">{{title}}</a>
    </li>
    {{/each}}
    </ul>
    {{#if section.more_articles}}
    <a href="{{section.url}}" class="article-sidebar-item">{{t 'see_more'}}</a>
    {{/if}}
    </section>
    <section id="sections-list" class="sections-list collapsible-sidebar">
    <h3 class="collapsible-sidebar-title sidenav-title">
    Other Sections
    </h3>
    </section>
    </section>

    <script>
    var catID = $('.breadcrumbs li:nth-child(2) a').attr('href').match(/[0-9]+/);

    $.getJSON('/api/v2/help_center/en-us/categories/'+catID+'/sections.json', function(data){
    //console.log(data.sections);
    var output = "";

    $.each(data.sections, function(idx, itm){
    output += '<li>';
    output += '<a href="'+itm.html_url+'">'+itm.name+'</a>';
    output += '</li>';
    });

    $('#sections-list').append('<ul>'+output+'</ul>')
    });
    </script>

    Let me know if you face any issue.

    Credit for the above code goes to Vladan. He has posted the code here and I tweaked it a bit to make it work for you.

    Thanks

    Thank you, Trapta (and Vladan wherever you are)! This worked great. Now to see if I can tweak the CSS of the list. Thanks again!

    @Trapta or @Meghan Mahar, any chance you could share how to tweak the CSS to match the "Articles in this section" list? Thanks!

    Hello,

    I am trying to use this code, but how can I make the script to work? It does not seem to be recognized inside the article_page.hbs: Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 ().

    Also, can you please let me know if I am editing the correct page? I am adding this code inside the article_page.hbs and replacing the block <div class="article-container" id="article-container"> with this code.

    Thank you for your help.

    Emil

    Hello @...,

     

    Thanks for replying.

    I am leaving here the page where I added the code, unfortunately we are running a restricted Zendesk Help Center so I cannot share the URL with you directly.

    I added Jquery by following an article found on the community and I attached a screenshot showing where it's placed.

    I added the code inside the article_page.hbs like bellow.

    <div class="container-divider"></div>
    <div class="container">
    <nav class="sub-nav">
    {{breadcrumbs}}
    <!--<div class="search-container">

    <path stroke="currentColor" stroke-linecap="round" d="M11 11L7.5 7.5"/>
    </svg>
    {{search scoped=settings.scoped_kb_search submit=false}}
    </div> -->
    </nav>

    <div class="article-container" id="article-container">
    <!-- code for adding sections at the side of artcle content -->
    <section class="article-sidebar">
    <section class="section-articles collapsible-sidebar">

    <ul>
    {{#each section.articles}}
    <li>
    <a href="{{url}}" class="sidenav-item {{#is id ../article.id}}current-article{{/is}}">{{title}}</a>
    </li>
    {{/each}}

    Hi @...,

    Apologies for the late reply. The information you have provided is too much which is rather confusing than being helpful. Please simply provide the screenshot of your browser console screen where it is showing the error.

    Thanks
