IDX Blogger has an available widget called “Pages”. The Pages widget will display all of the pages that are published in your IDX Blogger site. This can be useful if you would like to add a set of navigation links to your sidebar (the same set of links that makes up your upper navigational links).

Your pages widget will appear similar to the one displayed below:

Managing Site Navigation

Tyler — Fri, 27 Feb 2009 23:17:31 +0000

Each link in the navigation header of your website represents a page in your WordPress site. In order to keep a clean header, you may “hide” pages from the navigation bar. A hidden page is still fully functional, and you can link to it, but it will not appear as a link in the top bar. The Site Navigation panel also allows you to drag and drop reorder the pages that appear in your navigation bar of links up top. Follow the instructions below to hide a page from your navigation. Please note that the same set of instructions can be used to “unhide” a page.

Step 1: From the “Manage” menu, select “Site Navigation”.

Step 2: Hover your mouse over the small arrows ( >> ) next to the page that you wish to hide. The hide link will automatically appear. Click the link and the page name will become partially transparent. Click the “Update” button to apply these changes to your website.

The page has now been hidden from the navigation bar and will no longer appear.

Naming Pages and Site Navigation

Hey Folks,

Just wanted to give you a bit of advice when creating new pages. Remember, each new page you create will be displayed in your sites top level navigation bar (unless you specify otherwise via the site naviagtion editor under the manage menu). When naming pages please take this into account, naming a page: “About me and what I do for a living” is great but it will take up almost half of your navigation bar and is way to informative for a text link to an information page, The best way to represent that link would be: “About me”

If you would like to get creative with page titles, remember to use the site navigation editor to change the display title used within your navigation. To access the navigation editor enter your dashboard and navigate to manage > site navigation.
