Hi,

I am currently developing a DNN site for a client, and they wish to have the website split into two sections.  Each section will have it's own unique set of pages.

Each page will then have two seperate menu's each representing one section of the site.

Is this possible in DNN?  I know you can have two menus on a page but can they point to different parts of the site?

Any help would be greatly appreciated

yes you should be able to set that up.

For instance using the HouseMenu or Snapsis menu you should be able to setup a second menu which you configure to display the items from a parent page.

You then add all the elements you want to display in your second menu within the parent page.

You could create several skins each with their own setting for which parent page to pull the second menu from.

Thanks Lee,

Is it possible to set up a menu item that doesn't point to a page but rather acts as a holder for sub pages, like the "admin" or "host" menu items do?
