January 8th, 2014AWM: How to show/hide menu items
Knowledge Base support case for AllWebMenus, abstracted and stripped of all user’s private info.
Initial Email From: Mike
Initial Email Subject: AllWebMenu, Hide menu item or group from javascript
Support Case Month: July 2013
I assume I am able to hide a menu item or menu group via external javascript function so I can display just the items/groups based on the web page. Can you send me an example of how to do that?
Thank you.
Mike

Hello Mike,
First, thank you for your interest in our Likno products.
I believe that the Server-Side Menus API is what you are looking for:

Thank you.
I don't have a need at the moment to build the menu dynamically. I want to build a complete static menu but then hide parts of it depending on the page the user is on. My hope is that there is a javascript call to hide an item or group by ID?

Hello Mike,
Another way to achieve what you want is to use the "UL/LI" population method (see below). In that case, you can hide/show any UL/LI items (menu submenus and items in other words) you wish. I believe this is the way to go:
