Navigation Tree

The Navigation Tree shows all the pages of your website in the order they appear in the navigation menu.

The tree is made up of branches which represent the different navigation areas of your site. Each branch will have a main/landing page (also called parent) and child pages. The different navigation icons indicate the page type and its visibility on the live site.

A number of functions can be performed by right clicking on the Navigation Tree.

  • Edit page
    • Content
    • Page Properties
    • Source Code
    • History (of changes)
  • View live page
  • Preview (unpublished changes)
  • Include/Exclude in/from Navigation
  • Edit Asset properties
  • Add a new page or redirect
  • Rename (navigation label)
  • Cut, copy and paste a page/branch
  • Delete a page
  • Refresh (navigation tree branch)

Search (11.3+)

Above the tree there is a search box which allows you to search for items in the tree. Clicking a search result (or Find) will select it in the tree, or alternatively click the Edit link to edit the page's content (this will also select it in the tree). The search results display the navigation tree icon (see above), the title of the page (e.g. "Blog" in the below screenshot), and the name of the page (e.g. "blog.htm" in the below screenshot).
