To define sitemaps (navigation items)
In the Site Designer tool, select Manage sitemaps and from the drop-down list at the top of the document tree area, select the sitemap that you want to define. In the sitemap tree, select the navigation item beneath which you want to create the new navigation item. From the toolbar, choose New > Website Navigation Item to create a new navigation item, choose Edit to change an existing navigation item, or choose Organize > Delete to delete a navigation item. Define the navigation item’s Properties, Workflow Management, Options, and Access Settings.
To publish navigation items
When you first create a navigation item, or when you make changes to an existing Published navigation item, the navigation item has a status of Working and that particular version of the navigation item is not yet visible on the associated CM website.
To publish this version of the navigation item and make it visible on its sitemap's associated CM website, select the navigation item, then from the toolbar choose Publish.
To reorganize navigation items within the sitemap hierarchy
You reorganize the sitemap hierarchy by dragging and dropping navigation items into new positions:
■ Drop navigation item A onto navigation item B to make A subordinate to B (A becomes a child of B, and B is the parent of A).
■ Drop navigation item A into the space below navigation item B (a dotted line appears below B) to make A follow B at the same level of the hierarchy (A becomes a sibling of B).
Troubleshooting
■ You must have one or both of the following content authority group (CAG) permissions in at least one CAG to which you belong:
□ To create new navigation items, you must have Navigation Creator CAG permissions.
□ To modify the properties of a navigation item, you must have Navigation Editor CAG permissions.
■ To edit existing navigation items, you must have both Read and Edit Document System permissions on each navigation item. To delete existing navigation items, you must have Delete Document System permissions on each navigation item. The Document System permissions from the parent navigation item are copied into each newly created navigation item, but can later be changed.
■ If you click the rendered link from a navigation item in a CM website and you receive a message that The requested content could not be loaded, this means that the navigation item's target content record has been deleted. To fix the navigation item, you must take one of the following actions:
□ Point the navigation item at a different content record.
□ Remove the navigation item from the sitemap.
Caution! The sitemaps for Core Sites and Sample Sites are protected for use by iMIS. The default Document System permissions for these sitemaps permit editing by SysAdmins only.
