Menu files
Menu files can be used to determine what will be show in the
navigation interface. A menu file has the file type Menu and
might have the extension .menu, if extensions are used on
the site.
A menu file is edited by focusing on the file and selecting the
Edit button. A special web-based editor is used. A menu
item consists of a URL to the page and a title that should be used in
the navigation interface.
The menu editor
After entering the items it is possible to change the order they will
be presented on the site by clicking on the arrows. Menu items may
also be deleted by selecting the red X to the right of each row. Save
the changes of the menu file by clicking on the Ok button.
In case the URL is a relative URL to a file on the site it is not
necessary to fill in the title field. The title from that file's meta
data will be used instead. That way the title need only be changed
once, in the meta data, and the change will take effect on every
place in the navigation interface.
Note that access control will be used to filter all menu items
using relative URLs. That way the no navigation interface will contain
links to any pages the current user does not have access to, nor any
broken links to pages that does not exist. If the menu file is created
before the files in the menu they won't show, until the files have
been created.
Only relative URLs are filtered by access control. Absolute URLs
will always be shown, regardless of permissions.
