As a website operator with a deep understanding and rich experience of AnQiCMS, I know well the importance of the navigation system for user experience and website structure.Under the AnQiCMS framework, we can build clear and efficient website navigation to meet various operational needs.About the sub-menu level supported by the security CMS navigation list, I can provide detailed explanations.

The navigation list function design of AnQi CMS aims to provide a simple and practical structure to ensure the usability and management efficiency of the website. Based on our understanding of the AnQi CMS functional modules and practical operating experience, especially by consulting the built-in 'website navigation settings' help document of the system, it can be clearly understood that the navigation list system of AnQi CMS supports最多两级子菜单。这意味着，您可以在主导航项下创建一层下拉菜单或子菜单。

In the AnQiCMS backend "Website Navigation Settings" interface, we manage the website's frontend navigation links.The core design philosophy of this module is to balance the flexibility of functions and the intuitiveness of user experience.When you configure navigation links, each main navigation item (level 1 menu) can choose whether to have a sub-navigation link.If a main navigation item is set to include sub-links, then these sub-links form the second-level menu, which is also referred to as the first-level dropdown navigation in the document.The system allows you to nest these secondary menu items under their respective primary menus, forming a clearly structured hierarchy.

在模板设计层面，AnQiCMS通过内置的navListLabels are used to render navigation lists. This label can iterate through the navigation data you set up in the background and output in HTML format.navListLabels can identify whether navigation items contain submenu items (viaitem.NavListProperty judgment), and generate the corresponding nested structure.This means that as long as you have correctly configured the secondary navigation items in the background, the frontend template can accurately present these two levels of menus through simple loop logic.

In short, AnQiCMS's navigation list feature, with its 'main menu + first-level submenu' design, provides a clear and easy-to-manage navigation solution for the website, fully supporting efficient content display and user guidance.

Common Questions (FAQ)

  • Q1：Can I create a three-level or even more hierarchical navigation menu in the Anqi CMS?

    • The official design of AnQi CMS clearly states that the navigation list supports up to two levels of menus, meaning that only one level of submenus can be under a main navigation item.This design aims to simplify the navigation structure, enhance user experience and website management efficiency, and avoid user confusion caused by too deep navigation levels.

  • Q2：How to set different navigation menus for different areas of the website (such as header and footer)?

    • The CMS supports the "Navigation Category Management" feature.In addition to the default navigation categories, you can customize and create multiple navigation categories in the background, such as 'Header Navigation', 'Footer Navigation', or 'Sidebar Navigation'.Thus, you can independently set a set of navigation links for each navigation category and call the corresponding navigation list in different template areas.

  • Q3：What types of content does the navigation link of the Safe CMS support?

    • The navigation links of Anqi CMS support three main types: built-in links (such as the home page, model home page), category page links (pointing to created document categories or single pages), and external links (can point to any internal URL or other external websites).This provides great flexibility, allowing you to seamlessly integrate a variety of content and external resources into the navigation system.
