How do I add a toggle side navigation bar to an article?

I already have a sidebar on the article page that shows only categories. As you can see:

But I need to toggle categories, sections and articles. As in this example:

https://lotus-one-theme.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360014146220-What-is-Lotus-Themes-

I've been trying for a long time and the tutorials I've seen so far aren't working. Does anybody know how to solve this?

    Hey Isabel,

    Are you using a Lotus theme currently in your Help Center? If so, you may want to reach out to their support team so they can help point you in the right direction.

    Let me know!Hey Customer Care Team,

    Hey Isabel,

    Thanks for the update! I would recommend reaching out to Diziana's team directly as they should be able to take a look at your theme and assist further.

    I'll leave this post open in case others ran into a similar issue with their theme and they can offer some guidance.

    Cheers!

    Hey Isabel,

    You want to add a Multilevel sidebar, that's our plugin in which you will get this given hierarchy:

    Category 1

        Section 1

               Article 1

               Article 2

              Article 3 

        Section 2

              Article 1

              Article 2

              Article 3     

     

    When you click on the category all sections would be shown of that Category and when you click on any of that section then all articles would be shown of that section, the same as you want.

    Currently, you have the Category sidebar, in this case, only shows categories in the sidebar. 

     

    Please Contact To Diziana 

     

    Thanks

    Team

    I'm actually looking to do this as well, with the free Copenhagen theme. Any thoughts on how to achieve this, or can someone maybe point me in the direction of where I might find the info? Thanks!

    Hi Nicole,
     
    I found this method that requires HTML, CSS, and jQuery -- I haven't tried it myself, so I can't vouch for it: How to Create an Expandable Sidebar Navigation Links
     
    In order to user jQuery, you must first install it into your theme: Importing or upgrading jQuery

    Thanks, Dave! Regrouping on this, I'm only looking to show the sections in the current category you're in on the sidebar. Can even just list them, doesn't need to be a dropdown/interactive. Now, we have agent facing categories as well as end user categories. I can't figure out how to make the connection on a section page to check the category and display those sections under it. Any thoughts?

    Hi Nicole - it looks like our amazing Community Moderator Ifra Saqlain answered your question here, is that correct? How to add a list of Sections in the sidebar on a sections page?
