Managing Navigation Bar Lists

Applications using newer themes, such as Universal Theme - 42, include navigation bar lists.

About Navigation Bars

A navigation bar list displays with a list template in the #NAVIGATION_BAR# position on your page template.

Editing Navigation Bar Lists

Since a navigation bar is a list, you create and edit in the same way as any other list.

You can access navigation bars in Shared Components in the Navigation region in two ways:

• Select the application and then click Shared Components.

• Under Navigation and Search, select one of the following:

  • Navigation Bar List

  • Lists

Once you select the navigation bar list, you edit it as you would any other list.
