For a very simple site I need to use a left navigation menu, instead of horizontal. I tried simple sidebar navigation, but that means I have( max) 9 widgets with the same name in the left sidebar.
I don't see how to do this in Artisteer. I'd like to have the link in a separate box,
see http://wordpress.mantamedia.nl > like team.
But this is made in simple sidebar navigation, which I don't want to use for all the links. There need to be an easier way!
Does some one know how?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Samantha,

I know this doesn't help you immediately ( and this is a very much requested feature ), but 2.4 ( January sometime ) has vertical menu capability...

I think you wanna display the said link in your sidebar, you can do it adding the text widget to your sidebar and placing that link in text widget.

Thanks for your answers!

@Dave I'm looking forwad to this feature, nice to know it will arrive!

@Garry: It is a workaround solution, but gives also 9 widgets with the same name in the widget sidebar. But thanks for your help!

Happy Holidays!

Fantastic! I'll look forward to 2.4 :-)

Forgive me for asking but I only bought Artisteer yesterday; but do licensed users receive news of updates?

Not sure if the answers were clear, or they worked for you but we use 1 text widget with all the links in it. Not seperate text widgets for each page.

You should have a widget built-in thats called "pages" and I assume you did a layout without any nav at the top, this widget will pick up the pages as you add them. It gets a little hairy if your doing sub-sub-pages.

Set a nice little bullet for your "blocks" and that should hold you over till Artisteer gets us the real vertical nav setup.

@Tony, No you just have to keep monitoring the news here ( although I have a vague recollection of the program being aware of updates !)

You can try a CSS menu ?
