Include a Static Page Link in Auto-Navigation Block?

Permalink
Hi guys,

Just wondering if there is any way to do this? I have an autonav working fine, but I need to add a static URL (like a link tohttp://google.com) into the nav, right after the home-page link. Is this possible?

Thanks

Found the solution myself -- for anyone who is interested, go to the Dashboard -> Sitemap. Then, click on your home link, and select "Add External Link" from the contextual menu.

I run into this all the time. Mostly with multiple navigations that need to link to internal and external to some of the same pages. The first attribute I create with all my c5 installs is... external_link

I then duplicate the header_nav template in blocks/auto_nav and add in one check line that over-writes the page link if this attribute is set to true.

True, but most of the time I have to build menus that appear in multiple spots
ie.
top nav is a quick links navigation,
left nav will include most links
bottom nav include main links

I create attributes to assign what nav the pages are associated. If there is an easier way, i'd love to here it!
