Modifying 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 1: Login

Log into Cascade by using a browser to navigate to cms.sandiego.edu.



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 the Desired Display in Navigation Option

Select the asset to change.

Edit the asset and confirm or change its Display in Navigation option.

This step must be done individually for all assets whose Display in Navigation option you wish to change.



STEP 4: Reorder Navigation

If the order that pages are displaying in the navigation need to be reordered, then follow the steps to change the order in which they display.


STEP 5: Nightly Website Publish

The last step involves the site you are working on to publish. This happens daily at midnight. If this process has run and you are still not seeing your change live, please try submitting a ticket to http://www.sandiego.edu/web-requests/. The form will require that you include the URL for the page or site.




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 the 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 submit 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.
