Can I add a hyperlink to a brochure page/fragment

[demonlooper]

I know I can add a link WITHIN a fragment page, but is there anyway to add a hyperlink to the title of the Brochure page / Fragment page in the Menu system. This would remove an extra page for me.

I want the Contact button on the left menu system to link to the Contact page (same as the button at the top of the page)

No, there is no way currently in Actinic to just put a Link into the menu structure.

It also depends on which design template you're using too I think, as some use javascript to generate the sidebar menu and others don't.

It's certainly possible to do what you want with the javascript menus, but you would need to modify the code in the layout. On neatwholesale.co.uk I have stopped it adding a hyperlink to certain section names and made others display as a new separator (i.e. the 'other items' one which is just a standard section inside Actinic.

Create your contact us page as a section with fragments, it will be auto added into the department menu for you and you can then manually link to the page from your other link.

Thanks guys, have put a link in the fragment directing you to the Contact page. Not exactly what I wanted but the only solution it seems.

[leehack]

Certainly not the only solution, perhaps the only one you think can happen despite recommendations.

[demonlooper]

Don't think so, I need the button in the left menu to link to the actinic Contact Us page, I think your solution was linking in the other direction. Gladly listen to direction if I'm wrong though.

To see my problem look at www.intershoot.co.uk - I want the CONTACT button on the left menu to link to the built-in Actinic Contact page

If you add:

<a class="menuitem" href="<actinic:variable name="SendMailPageLink" />">Contact Us</a>

onto the end of the menu

it will add the link as you need.

Lee, thanks for the code, where exactly do I add it?

[leehack]

Onto the end of the menu where you want it, i presume your left hand menu is the standard brochure page menu, if so, just add it at the end of that and it join up as though part of it. If it's not the standard menu and is a manual one, then just tag on that code after the last link in the said menu.

Thanks Lee, sorted now
