Converting ul menu into autonav

Permalink
I have a jquery-driven menu using the standard unordered list coding with nested li tags.

How do I convert this into an autonav?

Create your menu structure by adding pages in your Sitemap via the Dashboard, something to the effect of:

Home
-> About
---> Experience
---> Portfolio
-> Services
---> Design
---> Coding
-> Contact

And then you'll need to have an area on your page type for your menu such as "Header Nav" or "Navigation".

You will add an AutoNav block to that area and it will guide you through creating the proper list structure.

Your jquery should handle the rest, just make sure it's called on your template.

The basics section of the documentation would be a great help here.

Thanks Lucas.

I keep thinking in conventional web development ways rather working from the Dashboard!
