The main navigation in the Business templates is handled by a PCF. Modify the PCF here:

  • /_resources/includes/business/main-nav.pcf and publish your changes. By default all pages will load /_resources/includes/business/main-nav.aspx until the user overrides this using the directory variable main-nav-include for a specific section.
    • Publish the PCF and view the changes on the production server.
    • You get a live preview of the changes while editing the main-nav.pcf.
    • Note: All pages will use the include /_resources/includes/business/_staging/main-nav.inc within the staging environment.
  • Editable regions - The PCF consists of three editable regions and one table transformation snippet.
    • Department Links - An editable region containing li nodes, only li nodes will be copied from this region and rendered into the first column of the drop down menu. Content is the same for all drop downs.
    • Description - The content for the fourth column of the drop do wn. Content is the same for all drop downs.
    • Main Nav - A table transformation snippet consisting of two columns and as many rows and menu items are needed.
      • Column 1 - Menu item titles.
      • Column 2 - A list of links that XSL will split into two columns to render in the second and third columns of the drop downs.
    • Note: The "Stay Connected" content is being pulled from the include located at /_resources/includes/business/stay-connected.inc, unless otherwise specified using a directory variable.
