<div dir="ltr" align="left"><span><font color="#0000ff" face="Arial" size="2">Yep this works. I've done similar things to make
blocks appear on specific pages. You don't technically need path_auto to
accomplish this. If you use the path module, you can manually set up each
page with a path (e.g. news/todaysnews). What pathauto does for you is to
automatically set the "path" alias names based on content type and/or taxonomy
term plus the page title. You can always override a particular page by
specifically setting its path, provided you have the path module enabled.

If so how....? <br>><br></span></div><div><span>> You can use a custom block with php if-then

make separate<br>> blocks with the menu links in them and only set their
visibility in <br>> block admin pages, otherwise you can make one block
with different PHP<br>> conditions to display the links as they should be
per page.<br>><br><br>If you use pathauto to create your paths for you then
you could set up <br>a system that splits your "different sections" into
different URLs on<br>the site such
as:<br><br>forum/<br>blog/<br>news/<br><br>And then create blocks appropriate
for those sections and in the block<br>visibility settings set the blocks to
only show on forum/* pages or <br>blog/* pages as appropriate.<br><br>With
pathauto it's possible to separate by either node type (as shown<br>above) or
by the lowest weighted taxonomy term in the lowest
weighted<br>taxonomy.<br><br>Regards,<br>Greg<br><br><br>--<br>Greg Knaddison
