Is it possible to publish the navigation HTML in a separate file with navigation manager? I know it makes it easier for users to manage site navigation themselves but if you have a large site and the HTML for navigation is embedded on each page and you change the navigation you'll have to republish alot of pages.
Also can you use different publication pages with navigation manager for example on your left navigation you might have 2 sections boats and cars can you have boats publish to /boats/index.html and cars publish to /cars/index.html ? -Brian On Feb 10, 6:23 am, kimdezen <[email protected]> wrote: > Definately use Nav Manager if your site will end up being quite > large.. > > I've had performance issues within a project i worked on a few years > back using the nested UL's approach.. where the site had become > extremely large (3000-4000+ pages).. pages would take betwen 30-60 > seconds render. > > Once you get the hang of using Nav Manager (especially Render Tags) - > it is very flexible and can save you a lot of development time in the > long run. > > Nav Manager will work for ANY project - no matter how simple or > complex..
