The navigation function of AnQi CMS is the core of website content presentation, which is not only the guidance of the user's browsing path, but also a direct reflection of the site's information architecture.As website operators, we fully understand the importance of a flexible and efficient navigation system for enhancing user experience and website usability.AnQiCMS provides various types of navigation links to meet the needs of different website structures and operational strategies.
Firstly, the built-in link options provided by the security CMS are convenient and quick, these links directly point to the core function pages of the website.For example, the "home link" of the website is an indispensable part of the basic navigation, ensuring that users can always return to the starting point.In addition, the system also supports setting the home page of the content model as a navigation item, such as "Article Model Home Page" or "Product Model Home Page.This means that if you have a blog module dedicated to displaying articles or an e-commerce module for selling goods, you can easily set up an entry for it in the main navigation.For custom content models, AnQiCMS also supports creating built-in navigation links for the homepage, greatly enhancing the flexibility of content management and display.
Next, in AnQiCMS, the core of content organization lies in categories and independent single pages.Therefore, the "Category Page Link" allows us to directly add any created article category, product category, or other custom model category under it to the navigation.This is crucial for guiding users to delve deeper into specific topics or product lines.At the same time, the "single-page" content created in the system, such as "About Us", "Contact Information", and so on, can also be directly referenced as navigation links.This method ensures that all key information on the website can be effectively integrated into the navigation structure, making it convenient for users to quickly locate and access.
Finally, AnQiCMS's navigation system is not limited to in-site content, we can introduce any valid URL address through the "external link" feature.This link type provides great flexibility, whether it is pointing to a specific page within the site, or directing to external cooperative websites, social media homepages, or any other relevant resources, it can be easily achieved.Users can use external links to expand website functions, enhance user engagement, or provide users with more comprehensive information services without being restricted by the page structure of the CMS itself.
AnQiCMS through built-in links, category page links, and external links, provides a diversified navigation support, building a comprehensive and highly customizable navigation solution for website operators.Whether it is to build a clear corporate website or a content-rich self-media platform, these link types can provide a solid foundation, ensuring the smooth flow of website information, thus optimizing the user's path to visit and enhancing the overall value of the website.
Common Questions and Answers (FAQ)
How to create a multi-level dropdown menu in navigation?The navigation list of AnQi CMS supports up to two levels of navigation links, which means it can implement a first-level dropdown menu.You can select an existing navigation item as the parent navigation in the navigation settings on the backend, and then set the new navigation item as its child.Thus, when the user hovers over or clicks on the main navigation item, the sub-navigation list below it can be seen.
Navigation link can be controlled to open in a new tab?Yes, in the navigation link settings of Anqi CMS, there is usually an option to control the way links are opened.For external links or internal links you want users to access without leaving the current page, you can choose to open them in a new tab (or window).

If I update the URL alias of a category or a single page, will the link pointing to it in the navigation be updated automatically?When you update the category or single-page URL alias in the AnQi CMS backend, if the navigation link is created by system internal reference (such as selecting category ID or page ID) rather than manually entering the complete URL, the link in the navigation will usually be automatically updated to match the new URL alias.But if it is an external link you entered manually, it needs to be modified manually.
