Is there any way to manage a long list in the tree? I have a website with a lot of news items that are shown in the tree. Is there some kind of solution to display for example the 10 newest items in the tree with the option at the bottom of that 10 items (Show more) to see all of them? So that you have a collapsed view with 10 items that you can expand to show all of them in the tree?
Sounds like you should try enabling list views on your "News container" document type. In the settings section you can go to your document type and under structure there is an "Enable list view" option.
This is made so that there is an option of having many items stored under a node but without getting that awful long tree.
Long list in tree
Hi,
Is there any way to manage a long list in the tree? I have a website with a lot of news items that are shown in the tree. Is there some kind of solution to display for example the 10 newest items in the tree with the option at the bottom of that 10 items (Show more) to see all of them? So that you have a collapsed view with 10 items that you can expand to show all of them in the tree?
Kind regards, Robert

Hello again - Can't remember of list views are active on versions lower then 7 though - V7 is required for this kind of functionality.

Hey Robert,
What version of umbraco are you running? If it's 7 you might be able to use the List view for child nodes which you can find more information on here http://umbraco.com/follow-us/blog-archive/2014/10/28/umbraco-720-beta-out-now
Other than that, you might be able to use the backoffice node rendering events, https://our.umbraco.org/wiki/reference/api-cheatsheet/using-applicationbase-to-register-events/event-examples/remove-context-menu-items but rather than manipulating the content items, you may be able to remove items completely, although i'm not 100% on this.
Cheers Stephen
Thanks for the quick answers, i'm using 7.1.4 at the moment
Hi Robert
Ok, then enabling list views is the way to go :)
