You can put rich:treeNode just inside rich:treeNodesAdaptor. There are examples in documentation.

you mean something like :

<rich:treeNode>
<rich:treeNodesAdaptor nodes="#{project.name}" />
<rich:treeNode>

?

It seems like I did try that already but I dont remember what wouldnt work about it. Ill try again and try to find the examples your talking about (I think I already have found it actually, I seem to remember this same conversation in the past with you. I will have to find that old post)

or wait you probably actually mean:

<rich:treeNodesAdaptor nodes="#{project.name}">
 <rich:treeNode>
 <h:outputText value="#{project.name}" />
 </rich:treeNode>
</rich:treeNodesAdaptor>

from the way you word it there

yes that second version worked...
guess what?

This tree now works as intended after these 3 months of me posting on this forum for help!

There are a few small things, but they are fine for first iteration of this project.

Thanks very much

OK here is the latest version and I do have one other quick question, I think I need to use rich:recursiveTreeNodesAdaptor for value="#{item.devicesList}" because it is a List rather than String value, is this the correct way to use recursiveTreeNodesAdaptor?

<rich:tree>
 <rich:treeNodesAdaptor nodes="#{nodesBean.projects}" var="item">
 <rich:treeNode>
 <h:outputText value="#{item.projectName}" />
 </rich:treeNode>
 <rich:treeNodesAdaptor nodes="#{item.devicesList}">
 <rich:treeNode>
 <h:outputText value="#{item.devicesList}" />
 </rich:treeNode>
 </rich:treeNodesAdaptor>
 </rich:treeNodesAdaptor>
 </rich:tree>

Otherwise, if I expand a node that has more than one device in the list it is going to have all those devices listed on one line right?

[meghiddo]

I believe this should do it right:

<rich:tree>
 <rich:treeNodesAdaptor nodes="#{nodesBean.projects}" var="project">
 <rich:treeNode>
 <h:outputText value="#{project.projectName}" />
 </rich:treeNode>
 <rich:recursiveTreeNodesAdaptor roots="#{project.devicesList}" var="device">
 <rich:treeNode>
 <h:outputText value="#{device}" />
 </rich:treeNode>
 </rich:recursiveTreeNodesAdaptor>
 </rich:treeNodesAdaptor>
 </rich:tree>
