[support] Dynamically display menu items?

[toon severijns]

Hey Joel,

I tried your way but using the view as a context (the context would display
or not display a menu block). No luck so far ( i can't seem to get context
working properly).
Going to let that method rest for a while. Thank you so much for all the
help!

Best,


Toon
