Question

Url formatting

2

Using the deeplink module it's easy to send deeplinks in your mails and so on. But I think the navigation menu items could also be accessible with deeplink. Somethink like http://localhost/parentitem/submenuitem1 http://localhost/parentitem/submenuitem2 http://localhost/parentitem/submenuitem3 Using url formatting could be a major improvement for the mendix platform. Any ideas about this?

Setting up the links should be easy enough, if you just create a Navigation entity and create an object for each Navigation item. From there the Deeplinking module can pass them to a microflow. The problem there is opening a different form for each object. You could maybe store the form name in the object and open in with a Java action:

this.addOpenFormFeedback();

You can probably handle subitems using a self-reference.

You can connect the menu items to microflows, and create deeplinks to those microflows as well. Thats quite simple to achieve.
