Security trimming with hide parent with taghelpers?

[Bill]

I define my menu using taghelpers.  I see that the HTML helpers allow security trimming with the HideParent feature, but it appears that the taghelpers only support a boolean for security trimming and hence no way to enable the HideParent feature.  Is that true? Or is there a way to enable it?

Additionally, is there any server-side hook that can be used with the taghelper where I can perform custom filtering after the security trimming has been run but before the menu has been rendered to HTML?   This would be a workaround if HideParent is not available, as well as allow for custom filtering such as removing extra menu separators, etc.

Hi Bill,

 

Thank you for writing to us.

I have escalated this question to our Development Team and they have responded that the TagHelpers don't provide such configuration. Furthermore, there is no way to plug it with some workaround.

Thus, their suggestion is that you could use the HtmlHelpers syntax if this requirement is important to you.

I understand this is not good news, but at least I hope this information was clear and concise.
