Creating a Main Menu

Create a grid page consisting of one or more tiles, where each tile triggers a specific hyperlink when clicked.

Example of a main menu containing seven tiles.

Implementation:

  1. Click to access the Content Delivery tab.
  2. Click Pages to access the Site Map Inspector.
  3. Click the Site Root node to add a new page to the selected site.
  4. Open the New toolbar menu, and click Main Menu.
  5. Switch to the General Details panel and use it to specify basic information about the main menu page, including its name and unique identity.
  6. Switch to the HTML Page Content panel.
  7. (Optional) With the tile grid syntax already in place, replace the <LINK> tag in the markup with the URL you want the user to be directed to when they click that tile.
  8. (Optional) Replace the tile label text with whatever label you want to appear on the corresponding tile. See the following syntax for an example:

<a href="http://www.google.com/">Google Search</a>

  1. (Optional) In the markup reference a Page Link in place of a literal URL. Replace Page01 in the parenthases of the <LINK> tag, with the name of the page link that will redirect the user to the intended page.
  2. (Optional) Replace the Page 01 tile label text, situated outside of the parentheses, with whatever label you want to appear on the corresponding tile.
  3. (Optional) Add more tiles to your page by copying the <a> tags in the html markup, until you have as many tiles as you need within a single set of div tags.
  4. Click Save to confirm the creation of your new page.
  5. Click to publish the changes to the site.
