## Beschrijving

**Post Hierarchy Nav** is a lightweight Gutenberg block that renders clean, semantic
navigation trees based on your existing post hierarchy. Perfect for documentation
sites, knowledge bases, or any site using hierarchical content.

### ✨ Features

✅ Works with **posts, pages, and any hierarchical custom post type**
 ✅ Three 
display modes: **All**, **Auto (current context)**, or **Custom root** ✅ Live preview
via **ServerSideRender** — see changes instantly in the editor ✅ Optional **child
count** badge (e.g., “Integrations 2”) ✅ Fully customizable CSS classes for root
and active items ✅ Respects WordPress permissions and core data APIs

### 🎯 Use Cases

 * Create **auto-expanding documentation menus**
 * Build **context-aware sidebars** that highlight the current page’s branch
 * Replace hardcoded menus with **dynamic, maintainable trees**

### 🔐 Privacy & Performance

 * **Zero tracking** — no data collected, no external requests
 * **Lightweight** — only loads when the block is used
 * **GDPR compliant** by design

## Installatie

 1. Upload the `post-hierarchy-nav` folder to your `/wp-content/plugins/` directory.
 2. Activate the plugin through the **Plugins** menu in WordPress.
 3. Add the **Post Hierarchy Nav** block to any post or page.
 4. Configure post type, mode, and styling in the block inspector.

## FAQ

### Does it work with custom post types?

Yes! As long as your CPT is registered with `'hierarchical' => true` and `'show_in_rest'
=> true`.

### How is the “Auto” mode determined?

It finds the top-level ancestor of the current page/post and renders its subtree.

### Can I style the active item?

Yes! Use the **“Active item CSS class”** field in the Advanced panel (defaults to`
active`).

### Why require WordPress 6.3+?

The block uses modern Gutenberg APIs (`core-data`, `EntityPicker`, `ServerSideRender`)
that are stable from WP 6.3 onward.
