Weird Navigation

[wrems]

I created a view that only pulls in one of my import paths. The one for home videos. Here's the code that I used:

            <view name="wr_home_videos_only" label="WR Movies - Home Videos" flat="false">
                  <option name="bookmark" value="/Home Videos and Pics/"/>
                  <option name="children-only" value="true"/>
                  <description>Display Home Videos Only</description>
                  <tag value="video"/>
                  <view-source name="sagevideoimportsv7"/>
                  <presentation>
                        <sort by="title">
                              <option name="folders-first" value="false"/>
                        </sort>
                  </presentation>
            </view>

I've used this same block of code for other lookups without any issues. Rather than try to explain what I'm seeing I made a short video demonstrating what I'm seeing:

I'm not sure if the problem is with the view that I created or something else. Any ideas? Is my approach at limiting to a specific import path appropriate or is there a better way?

I can't look at the video right now... (since it's an .exe ) but, a view can have a "bookmark" or a "root". Visually they do the same thing, but in navigation, they behave differently.

"bookmark" means that you want the entire view, but you want to start it at the given folder (ie, it's bookmarked within the view).

"root" means that the given folder now becomes the "root" of the view and you cannot navigate outside of it.

So, you'd use "bookmark" in cases where you want the user to be able to nagivate back up the view to another location, but you;d use "root" in cases where you want the user to be ONLY allowed to see that portion of the view (and it's children), but they cannot navigate back up of the view.

So, I'm not sure if your navigation issue is a result of using "bookmark" when you really want to use "root".

Root fixed it!
