Modifying Site Navigation
The Primary and Secondary Navigation Menus are linked. Adding a page to the Primary Navigation Menu automatically adds it to the Secondary Navigation Menu.
Follow the steps below to add, move, or delete entries from either the Primary or Secondary Navigation.
STEP 2: Select Site
Select the website to edit by using the Site Selector.
The Site Selector field works as both a dropdown list and a search bar.
STEP 3: Select Page
Select a webpage to edit by clicking it in the Explorer Pane.
Cascade remembers previous user sessions. Even if a page or other asset is highlighted, it may not actually be selected. Always make sure to select the correct asset.
STEP 4: Click the Edit Tab
Click the Edit Tab on the Asset Action Bar.
The Edit Window will display in the Workspace.
STEP 5: Select Preferred "Display in Navigation" Option
Click the Yes radial button to display the page in navigation.
Alternatively, click the No radial button to remove the page from navigation.
STEP 6: Send to Workflow
Click the Send to Workflow button to begin the Workflow process.
STEP 7: Submit
Click Submit to begin the Workflow.
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."
- Were the steps above followed correctly?
- Did a Developer publish the page?
- Is the Display in Navigation setting for the page's parent folder set to Yes?
- 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."
- 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 assistance. Make sure to clearly state the issue, and to provide a link to the page that isn't displaying correctly.
