    When navigating a site, menus are often used. In SiteBuilder, the tags <navigation>, <sb-menu> and <sb-output> make adding navigation menus easy. The content of the navigation menus can be provided by special menu files or by listing directories or files.

    Menu files
    The menu file can be used to show a navigation menu in an order specified in the menu file. A menu file is recognized by its content type, which is sitebuilder/menu. Creating a new file with the extension .menu that file type will automatically be chosen for the file. To edit a menu file, focus on the file and select Edit contents.

    For the editor, menu files are a nice way to easily control the navigation design. In the menu file wizard, you choose which pages to be added to the navigation menu. After you have entered the files needed, you can change the order they will be presented on the site by clicking on the arrows.

    Title
    The title is the text that will be shown in the navigation menu. If a title is not specified in the menu file, it will be taken from the meta data title. If no title is specified in the meta data either, the filename will be shown.

    Rows may also be deleted by selecting the red X to the right of each row. Save the changes of the menu file by clicking Ok.

    Directories and files
    The navigation menus can also be created by listing directories or files from a specified directory. When listing files it is possible to list only a certain type of files or files with a certain extension.
