Path & Sitemap

?view=page&help=goldfish4&language=en

Show a sitemap or the path back to the start page. This works with a path & sitemap item that you can drag from the items to the website.

You can add a path & sitemap item to each area, slider area and area template. To add a path & sitemap item, edit the content of an area, slider or area template and drag a path & sitemap item from the items to the editor.

A path & sitemap item shows either the path back to the start page or an overview of all pages and subpages of the website (sitemap).

Select which of the two options you want to be displayed on the page at Path & Sitemap > Type in the properties.

Path

Path shows the path back to start page. Each entry can be clicked as a link to go to the corresponding page.

Sitemap

Sitemap shows an overview of all pages and subpages of the website (sitemap). Each entry can be clicked as a link to go to the corresponding page. Pages, with the deactivated property Page > Menu Title, will not appear in the sitemap.

By default, the path & sitemap item begins in the top hierarchy level of the website with the Start Page. The Start Page with sub pages will be displayed in the path & sitemap item.

If you want to display a different section of the page hierarchy as the path or sitemap, you can change the base folder in the properties at Path & Sitemap > Base Folder. So you can display only the mobile Start Page with sub pages as the path or sitemap for example.
