I have received recommendations to use both Metadata Hierarchy and
Containers to get around this problem. (Along with extending the SLM). Can
anyone expand on these topics with a basic overview of how they would be
accomplished?
Thank you,
Evan

********************** Macromedia Representative **********************
Evan,
My first thought here is that a dynamic navigation system should be built
using containers and content items. In 1.01 the SLM lives to store logging
and caching properties for Sites, Sections, Pages and Containers. In 1.5
Activities were added into the mix which would allow you to use the SLM as a
navigation repository or even extend the Webtop's Nav system.
I would recommend you switch over to Containers and Content items, I think
this would be the easier path to build dynamic menus in Spectra. Make sure
to use cfa_generatedcontentcache around the nav containers for better
performance.
HTH,
Mike

Subject: Change Order of Sections and Pages in Site Layout Model
I am using the Site Layout Model to create the navigation on a web site,
however it has come up that we need to change the order of the pages and
sections in some places. We are using Spectra 1.01, and I am not finding a
mechanism to specify the ordering anywhere. I have seen some references to
an SLM order attribute in the mailing list archives, but I must assume this
is something new in 1.5. Am I missing something? Are there any suggestions
on a way to do this? Alphabetical sorting is not an option.
Any tips, comments or suggestions are welcomed! Thanks.
