im a bit confused from your example... there ISNT products in your top nav...

there's really several ways to go about making navs..

use the auto-nav block, check out the preview tab, realize that your whole site is a hierarchy (like your file system) so its just a matter of telling the autonav where to start and how much to show...

use the page list block.. its just gonna make a flat list of pages from a particular spot, or a particular type..

just make a content block.. the hot spots.. nav at the bottom of this site is just a content block i can edit in one place which will show up everywhere..

I reinstall fresh Concrete.

I want have one header menu:

Home I About I Contact


and Sidebar menu:

# Examples A
* Image Slideshow A
* YouTube Video A
* Interactive Form A
* Survey A
* Guestbook/Comments

# Examples B
* Image Slideshow B
* YouTube Video B
* Interactive Form B
* Survey B
* Guestbook/Comments

The problems come when I try with add Auto-Nav for Sidebar menu. When mix Display Pages, Sub pages to Display, Sub-Pages level i got in preview full tree - sitemap or just main root or nothing ...

Page list in this point is not elegant solution. I beliave that i must use Auto_Nav but with what settings?

Thank you very much for helping.

Okay,

every page in concrete5 is the child of another page.. It's a tree.

to do what you're talking about above.. you'd have to have an examples page (or examples A and examples B) that all the A and B sub pages lived under. so really your tree would be:

Home
About
Contact
Examples A
Yadda A
Examples B
Yadda B

then what you can do is set a custom attribute from page details on examples A and examples B to "exclude them from navigation." That will get your primary nav looking the way you want, while still giving your child places a spot to live.

then to make your secondary navs you would either make an auto-nav block and use the settings to start a level below, or more likely use the page list block (Which is no less elegant than anything else) and point it to the specific spot: example A and example B...
