Menu

A major benefit of the content database is that the site navigation menus are automatically updated from the database . . as new pages are added to the database they can automatically linked into the menu system. Items within the content system can be designated as either Main menu items of Sub menu.

Any content page can be nominated as a

• "Main menu item", meaning it will be displayed on the menu and positioned dependant on the "Sort order"
• Sub menu drop-down item by selecting the required Main page with the "This is a sub menu of . ."

Note that "Main menu items" and their corresponding "Sub menu items" appear at the top of the list of pages in the Content manager, and pages that are neither are listed at the bottom of the list.

Any page can be both a Main menu item and a Sub menu and also a sub menu of multiple main pages. Take care however when you have page nominated as a sub menu of multiple pages, that page will be displayed multiple times in the Content Manager list (ie under each required Main menu item)  . . clicking on any of those entries will edit the page and if the page is deleted, ALL instances is deleted.
