List bar based on navigation structure

M

Michael

I've made a LIST BAR based on the navigation structure which works just fine.
It lists all the daughter pages of the current page. However, I'd like to
make a new LIST BAR listing the daughter pages of a DIFFERENT page. Can I
choose a target page for the list bar reference?

No - unless the other page is the Home Page, or the current page's
grandparent.

FrontPage navigation bars are based on:

the current page (same level, child level, parent level)
Home Page (Children under Home, child level [same as children under
home], Global level [pages alongside the Home page in navigation view])

Thanks for your quick reply, Ron. I think I may have figured out a way
(though I admit I don't understand it as I don't understand html code). I
did some copying and pasting and adapting and ended up inserting this:

<!--webbot bot="Navigation" S-Type="children"
S-Orientation="vertical" S-Rendering="text" B-Include-Home="FALSE"
B-Include-Up="FALSE" U-Page="../../folder/subfolder/index.html" S-Target -->

Where folder and subfolder point to the location of the page whose
"children" I want to list. Seems to have worked!

We all learn something new every day - well done for this.

One method I had forgotten is the custom link bar - but yours is so much
easier to do. The custom link bar enables you to make up link bars
using pages from anywhere in the navigation structure.

I'd always found the custom link bars easier to deal with.
