Navigation is a fundamental aspect of structuring a Meeds site. Properly configuring navigation ensures that users can efficiently access relevant content, navigate between sections, and maintain a logical flow throughout the platform. This guide details how administrators can edit and manage site navigation, including adding, removing, and organizing navigation items.
Administrators can edit all platform's navigation
Space Administrators can only edit navigation of their space
To modify the site navigation, there are two primary methods:
From Any Page on the Site:
From the Administration Interface:
Click on the Administration icon in the top bar (⚙️).
In the Administration menu, navigate to Development > Sites (see Customizing Sites).
Clicking the navigation icon opens the Site Navigation drawer, where navigation can be edited similarly to the page-level editor.
From there, you will be able to:
Add Item – Allows you to add a page.
Copy Link – copy the url of the page in the clipboard
Edit Layout – Edit the layout of the page (see Editing Page Layout)
Edit Properties – Modify the page's details.
Cut Item / Copy Item – Move or duplicate navigation items.
Permissions – Manage access rights for the navigation entry.
Delete – Remove the item from the navigation menu.
Continue on Adding a Page
When selecting the Permissions option for a navigation item, a permissions drawer opens, divided into two main sections:
This section defines who has the right to modify the page layout, appearance, and properties. There are two options:
Administrators – Only global administrators can edit this page.
Group Members – Allows specifying a group that will have editing permissions. When selected, an autocomplete field appears where you can enter the name of a group.
This section controls who has access to view the page. Options include:
Administrators – Always have access to view all pages (this cannot be deselected).
Users – Authenticated users with an account on the platform.
Guests – Allows guest users without an account to view the page.
Any – Grants access to all visitors, even unidentified ones.
Group Members – Allows restricting access to specific groups, with an autocomplete field to select the group.
By configuring these options, administrators can ensure proper access control and visibility management for different types of users.
To modify access permissions:
Select the navigation item.
Open the Permissions tab.
Assign visibility settings based on user roles.
Click Save to enforce the new permissions.
If you have the appropriate permissions, you will see a "Site Navigation" icon in the top bar next to the site name.
In the Navigation column, find the same navigation edit icon
Additionally you can expand the drawer to see a full page interface :
