Flexible Pages and Menus

For all of ExpressionEngine’s flexibility and powerful content management, there has not traditionally been a good way to manage stand-alone pages or create flexible menu systems that developers and content managers alike can both use with ease. Construct solves both of these problems.

Each Construct node has the option of both routing to a template, and outputting a menu structure in template tags.

Construct can also have multiple trees to fit many different content, page, and menu scenarios. But Construct doesn’t stop there.

Custom Access and Settings

Construct’s flexible settings allow developers to define member groups that have access to settings, or that are allowed to add trees.

You can also disable routing altogether if you only want to make menus.

And Construct’s master template preferences allow developers to associate ExpressionEngine templates with specific channels so that you can be sure the template chosen will fit the entry fields.

The template preferences also serve the purpose of giving your templates friendlier names so your clients won’t be confused and so you can use ExpressionEngine’s hidden templates feature.

Powerful Template Tags

Construct’s template tags make no assumptions. In true ExpressionEngine style, Construct is purely BYOM (bring your own markup). You determine what your site looks like, not Construct.

The {construct:children} tag ensures that your nested nodes will be placed exactly where they should be.

Construct puts the power in your hands.

Hooks Used

If the add-on is an extension, and ties into ExpressionEngine's core files, it will use ExpressionEngine hooks. We are listing any hooks the add-on uses for developers to have an easier time locating other add-ons that they can reference for their own work.

Best add-on for EE3 so far! Makes building out navigation and template routing super simple.

This IS the successor to Structure. Can’t say enough good things. It really is an amazing add-on. Won’t build another site without it!

Oh, and the support is top-notch too!
