Hello hotbullet and welcome to OSTraining! :-)

Have you viewed the list here?

extensions.joomla.org/search?q=article+dropdown

This one is for drop down article menus:
extensions.joomla.org/extensions/news-di...ticles-listing/12523

And this one will put it in a list, but not sure if that is right for you:
extensions.joomla.org/extensions/news-di...s/articles-toc/11573
Warm Regards,

Tessa Mero

hello hotbullet,

Have you tried this one?
www.dmjoomlaextensions.com/pro-extension...ticles-dropdown.html

Seems to be very similar to dropdownTOC.

Hi,

I think I understand what you want now. When you are using page breaks, you want the page-break menu to be a drop down instead of a list of links.

This plugin allows customizations of the display, but I don't know if it has a dropdown as an option. However they have an admin demo and you can try it out online.

extensions.joomla.org/extensions/news-di.../articles-tabs/20479

If it doesn't do what you want, you will need write the code for a dropdown men into the php file that generates the list.

Do you know how to write the code to produce a dropdown box? Let me know if that plugin will work. In the meantime I will figure out which file needs to be changed in case it doesn't.
