Components are a great way to re-use content you have already added to your site elsewhere. The Submenu Component will output navigation links into your content area.
Inserting the Component
- Select Components in the Edit tab:
- Select Website Content > Submenu.
- The Add Component window opens:
- By default, the current page is set as the item to output the menu items for. To change this, select Browse to open a tree view of your site. Select the item that you want to embed the menu links for, then select Select.
- Select the Levels of menu item to display. By default this is set to 1. Set as 2 or more to display sub-pages nested beneath the selected page.
- Select OK.
The template options are only relevant if you have bespoke/custom styling set up for your components.
Example of submenus
If you have a Curriculum page with individual subject pages beneath it as shown below:
- Setting the Level to 1 will display only the Curriculum page link.
- Setting the Level to 2 will include links for both the Curriculum and the Subject pages.
Saving Your Changes
Select Save on the Edit tab and choose the desired save option:
- Save & Publish
- If you see this option, you can save and publish your item immediately to make it live on the website.
- If you have purchased our School News Mobile App, Administrators or Publishers can select the option to send a notification to subscribed app users.
- Save Draft
- This will allow you to save your item without publishing it, and return to continue editing via Drafts on the Home tab
- Send for Approval
- This option enables you to send an item to be reviewed and approved by either an Administrator or Publisher. Once approved this item will be made live on the site.
