select="$currentPage/ancestor-or-self::node [@level=$level]/node 
        [string(data [@alias='umbracoNaviHide']) != '1']"

selects the nodes based on the $level variable. You should select the nodes from lvl 1

<!-- Input the documenttype you want here -->
<xsl:variable name="level" select="1"/>

Hello Bert,

Thank you for your answer, I have this XSLT, where the code should go?

umbraco.library">

<xsl:output method="xml" omit-xml-declaration="yes"/>

<xsl:param name="currentPage"/>

<!-- update this variable on how deep your navigation should be -->
<xsl:variable name="maxLevel" select="5"/>
<xsl:variable name="menuSection" select="//PL_MenuSection" />

<xsl:template match="/">

<ul id="{$menuSection}">
<xsl:call-template name="drawNodes">

Can't test this atm but it should work:

play a bit with the startlvl variable to fit your structure and needs

handle multilingual menu items - Xslt

we have a multi-lingual site with following structure supported by umbraco. 

 

Content

 USA Site: 

         index page

         item1...

         ... 

 Canadian Site: 

    English

          index page in English...

         item1...

         ...  

    French

         index page in French...

         item1...

         ...  

 

I know the better way is to put the Canadian Site as a separate site, but our client only wants a single login for admin account.  So we have an xslt navigation file to load the menu for the US site,  another xslt navigation file to load the menu for Canadian site English version, and the third xslt navigation file to load the menu for Canadian site English version.  Now it works well for the US site. But this only works for the index pages on Canadian site. Once we go the sub pages, the menu doesn't show up.

 

The xslt for French version of Canadian site is below. Please note I hard code id 1795 and 1884 and 1885 for the specific reason noted. I appreciate any suggestions.

 Below is the xslt for french section. We know the problem is that the submenu is never reached,  but don't knwo why,

 

 

  <xsl:output method="xml" omit-xml-declaration="yes"/>

 

  <xsl:param name="currentPage"/>

  <xsl:param name="level" select="1"/>

 

  <!-- 1795 is the home page for Canadian Site, we start from this node to display the menu item in order to skip the ones for the US site -->
