Cant use pages_navigation outside of cms pages

[rosscdh]

Hi there, great cms variation btw. Keen to use it.

I have a problem where; when outside of any cms page, I cannot use the pages_navigation templatetag

is this desired behaviour? should I write a custom template tag to work around it or have a missed something?

Have you used the {% load_pages %} template tag inside your template?
This is needed so some fundamental variables are loaded in the current context:

https://github.com/batiste/django-page-cms/blob/master/pages/templatetags/pages_tags.py#L358

In short pages_navigation and current_page are the 2 context variables that are expected to be present in the context if you want to use navigation template tag. You can also decide to set those variables by yourself if you need to.

Ah Morning sorry I just noticed this message.

I found exactly that looking through the template_tags code, fantastic :) thanks for the tip!

            {% load_pages %}
            {% for page in pages_navigation %}

works a charm :)
