NavigationItem.HTML

[dybs]

Hi
I have worked out that NavigationItem.HTML contains each navigational button, but where do you select which buttons you want to display and where to put them.

I want to put the Products button on an image in the middle of the home page and label it "Enter Site".

Also in the starter guide it talks about -

if you are working on a store overall layout template

what does this mean ?

Thanks again
Andy

Hi Andy

where do you select which buttons you want to display and where to put them.

The brochure navigation buttons are found in the individual borchure pages (apart from 'Products' which is in Design Options | Brochure), whereas the catalog navigation buttons are found in Design Options | Navigation.

I want to put the Products button on an image in the middle of the home page and label it "Enter Site".

You can do this using a brochure fragment and linking it to:
[CGI Bin URL]/ssxxxxxx.pl?SECTIONID=[page name]&NOLOGIN=1 where [CGI Bin URL] can be found in your network settings, xxxxxx is the script ID in the network settings (must be 6 digits) and [page name] is the base page name in Design Options | Site Defaults.

if you are working on a store overall layout template

what does this mean ?

This is the Primary template (typically Act_Primary.html). Actinic uses nested templates to lay out the design and the Primary template is the parent template that holds placeholders for the other templates.
