Additional content element in TYPO3 menu - drop-down-menu

Question

I made a menu in TypoScript in which on drop down section I have list of subpages and list of news. The code of menu is working but it render the list of news after every subpage (subpage1 and list of news, subpage 2 and list of news... etc). I would like to have two
independent element (one list of subpages and one list of news), but i don't know how to achieve that?
here is my menu code:
lib.header_main-menu = COA
lib.header_main-menu {
10 = HMENU
10 {
wrap = <ul class="nav navbar-nav">|</ul>
entryLevel = 0
1 = TMENU
1 {
noBlur = 1
wrap = |
expAll = 1
NO = 1
NO {
ATagTitle.field = title
wrapItemAndSub = <li>|</li>
stdWrap.htmlSpecialChars = 1
}
}
2 = TMENU
2 {
expAll = 1
wrap = <div class="subnav-wrapper"><ul class="subnav">|</ul></div>
NO = 1
NO {
wrapItemAndSub = <li>|</li>
wrapItemAndSub.append = COA
wrapItemAndSub.append {
wrap = |
10 = CONTENT
10 < lib.header_menu_news
}
}
}
}

Answer 1

lib.header_main-menu = COA
lib.header_main-menu {
wrap = <div>|</div>
// this is section 10 of the COA
10 = HMENU
10 {
wrap = <ul class="nav navbar-nav">|</ul>
entryLevel = 0
1 = TMENU
1 {
noBlur = 1
wrap = |
expAll = 1
NO = 1
NO {
ATagTitle.field = title
wrapItemAndSub = <li>|</li>
stdWrap.htmlSpecialChars = 1
}
}
2 = TMENU
2 {
expAll = 1
wrap = <div class="subnav-wrapper"><ul class="subnav">|</ul></div>
NO = 1
NO {
wrapItemAndSub = <li>|</li>
}
}
}
// this is section 20 of the COA
// btw the next line isn't necessary, you do that (define the object type) in lib.header_menu_news already
// 10 (would be 20 now) = CONTENT
20 < lib.header_menu_news
20.wrap = <h3>News</h3>|
}
actually, this comes to the same as putting them into the template separately
<div>###MENU###
<h3>News</h3>
###NEWSMENU###</div>
btw unless you use the lib.object in the Backend somewhere, I would use temp. instead - the latter are unset after building the page object, and my guess would be that this might be better for performance.
