Display in Navigation

The Top and Side Navigation Menus are linked. Adding a page to the Top Nav automatically adds it to the Side Nav. There are no dropdowns from the Top Nav though, so only the topmost level of the navigation will show in the Top Nav.

Follow the steps below to add, move, or delete entries from either the Top or Side Navs.

STEP 8: Add Comment

Any time Display in Navigation is changed, add the following note to the Comment Field.

Type in Added Page to Navigation or Removed Page from Navigation.

This comment informs Developers to publish the page. Unlike standard content changes approved in Workflow, any navigation change requires a Developer to specifically publish the site. Otherwise, the navigation changes will not appear until the site's normal, once a week, publication.

Troubleshooting Navigation

If the modified page is still not appearing in the navigation menu, or if it is still appearing after being removed, ask these questions. The answer to all of them should be "yes."

  1. Were the steps above followed correctly?
  2. Did a Developer publish the pagethe daily midnight site publish run?
  3. Is the Display in Navigation setting for the page's parent folder set to Yes?
  4. Does the page's parent folder have a page titled index (with a lowercase "i") in it? If the modified page is titled index, then this counts as "yes."
  5. Is the Display in Navigation setting for the index page that shares the same parent holder set to Yes? If the modified page is titled index, then this counts as "yes."

If the answer to all of these questions is "yes," then email web@sandiego.edu for assistancesubmit a ticket to http://www.sandiego.edu/web-requests/. Make sure to clearly state the issue, and to provide a link to the page that isn't displaying correctly.
