1.6. The bottom menu

Oups. I just forgot the bottom menu. This menu appears on all pages and links to pages which are kind of "outside" the ordinary tree-structure of the site.

But don't worry, we can create a menu for those also. Looking in the GoLive template file, you'll see the HTML-comment ###BOTTOM_MENU### which should be substituted. The only thing left is to figure out which pages should appear here. And to do this, we need to decide on a page, which should "hold" these pages. Looking in the tree structure, we can take the pages from the "Another site in ..." in the testsite. The only thing you need to do is to find the uid-number of this page, which is shown, if you hold your mousepointer still over the page-icon. It says "id=10".

Now add this code to the other menus:

  subparts.BOTTOM_MENU = HMENU
  subparts.BOTTOM_MENU.special = directory
  subparts.BOTTOM_MENU.special.value = 10
  subparts.BOTTOM_MENU.1 = TMENU
  subparts.BOTTOM_MENU.1.wrap = <center> | </center>
  subparts.BOTTOM_MENU.1.NO {
    before = &nbsp;|&nbsp;
    after = |*||*| &nbsp;|&nbsp;
  }

That's it!
