Hi,

As the title says, does anyone know how to make a page that will not automatically hang out of the built in Menu.

I want to have a few summary pages of a mix and match of the main services, that link directly from the Home Page.

Many thanks
Paul

In Joomla!, just create a new category for these summaries and install a 'news' or 'popular items' module to drop onto the home page that is directed toward the articles in your new summary category. You can rename the module to suit your needs and the 'popular' one wil dynamically change as people click on the pages (ie the order of the articles will find its own level soon enough".

It is a great way to get more info up without bloating the menus.

I assume most CMS's would use this same, basic logic.

Many thanks RecOn!

You are right with that! But I'm trying to see if it can be done within the Artisteer project and not later on when the site is uploaded (sorry, I should have mentioned that).

It looks like your suggestion may be the only way - or some other HTML editor outside of Joomla!

Found it!

1. Make new page as normal and it appears in the menu.
2. Go to Menu and/or Vertical Menu Tab.
3. Click on Pages on the right and all pages will appear,
4. Unclick the Page you do not want to appear in your Menu.

Cheers
Paul
