if it's only available on one page, you might need to use a hook to recreate the array on other pages.

Ah, thought menu.tpl was a default one.

It's my sidebar for navigation. And in the submenu of "services" I want to show all productgroups

with {foreach from=$productgroups item=productgroup}.

 

But currently it's only working on the services page.

I have heard of hooks but never really understood. Can u give me an example for this?

I wouldn't mind seeing a screenshot of that menu, or link to your site, because depending on what it is, it could be a navbar (displayed vertically), a sidebar or a HTML menu - any of which might require a different hook to make this work.
