(from source I see it points to specific nodes but how is that generated?) How do you make other nodes to be part of the e.g. Kelly tree (like Cats, Interests etc.)? Is it a book or?What I did was I created a new menu (I also created new menus for admin
is this the menu you later trim? or is this just top level menu?
tasks, but thats a different matter really). Then under admin -> build -> menu I went to settings and selected the new menu instead of primary links. Voila navigation menu at top where primary links should be.
I should mention a gotcha with this however. You need to check compatibility with themes, as not all themes provide enough room for a menu instead of primary links. I did previously have a seconday menu instead of secondary links, but theme issues prevented it from working correctly.
You then need the Menu Trim module. Select the menu you wish to trim, trim it (should be self-explanitary really) and then edit the menu
ok, almost self explanatory except of: what menu do you trim? Is it automatically generated from taxonomy or from relationship of nodes or do you create the whole thing manually?
thanks for the info, I'll look into menu trim module,
