You will need this information when you have added an Navigation tile, and wish to populate it for the first time, or edit it.

What is the Navigation tile?

The navigation tile is for listing a number of items of content from the same section, to allow a user to navigate to sub content of a section.

Adding content in the Navigation tile:

  1. In the 'Compose' view, you will see that your Navigation tile is empty (unless you are coming back to edit it!). To populate the Navigation tile, you will need to hover over the tile until you see the blue 'Edit' button in the top left, and then click on it.
  2. There are three fields in the Navigation tile edit interface:
    1. Title
      1. This will be situated above the items in the navigation.
    2. Use root path title as a header
      1. If this box is checked, it will use the title of the section that the root path of the navigation is linked to, as the title of the navigation.
    3. 'Root path of the navigation'
      1. Define the root path of the folder that you would like to show the content from. This should be inout as so; '..../***section***   - You only require the part of the URL that is listed after (and including) the first '/'.
    4. 'Navigation style'
      1. This menu gives you the option to choose between 4 different navigation styles.
    5. 'Show item descriptions'
      1. If this box is checked the description (if present) of the item of content will be displayed under the title.
    6. 'Top level limit'
      1. This is used if you are listing a section that is updated constantly and you wish to give a dynamic menu.
    7. 'Read more link text'
      1. This is the text that will be displayed on a button beneath the items in the navigation, if there are more than are being displayed.

Editing content in the Navigation tile:

  1. Go to the 'Compose' view of the Cover page, navigate to the Navigation tile, and hover your cursor over it, the blue 'Edit' button will appear in the top left, click this and edit any of the fields you would like to.

Removing the Navigation tile:

  1. If you wish to remove the Navigation tile, navigate to the 'Layout' view of the cover page, and click 'x' in the top left of the tile. When deleting a tile, the tile you are selecting has a red border.
