There are some circumstances where you may need to add an item located in another folder to the navigation. Adding items from other folders to the navigation requires a Reference.

A Reference is a special type of asset that points to an existing asset in the system. Using references makes content appear to be in two different locations within a site, without the need to duplicate content.

When using a Reference, the original item must have Display in Navigation set to Yes in order to appear in the menu.

• Select the original file from the Navigation Pane.
• Check to see if Display in Navigation is set to Yes.
  • Right-click on the asset and select > Properties to view the information for Display in Navigation.
  • If Display in Navigation is set to No, Edit the page and update the selection to Yes. Changing the Display in Navigation field to Yes will set the page to display in the navigation at the actual location as well. For landing pages, create an External Link.

• If Display in Navigation is already set to Yes, no edits to the original page are needed to continue.

• Click More and choose Reference.
  
  

• If the original file is named index, update the Reference Name. Otherwise, you can use the default Reference Name. Select the Placement Folder to select where to place the reference.
  
   
   

• References can be quickly identified from the Explorer.
  
  
   

 Remember, the entire site will need to be published following any navigation changes. If you do not have access to republish your site, submit a ticket to http://www.sandiego.edu/web-requests/The entire USD website publishes daily at midnight.
