 Hi,

Can anyone advise as to how I can add parameters to the page URL that is called by a menu item?  I want to have a reusable page that can be called by several menu items that provide different parameter values e.g. display_team.aspx?Team=1

Where do I find the URL to be called by the menu, how to modify?  I'm hoping to be able to do this via configuration rather than coding

.Many thanks,

Steve

You can redirect a page to any URL you want, it's in the page settings at the bottom (Page link)

Please don't use Solpart, it's legacy and not developed anymore, use NAV with the DNNMEnuProvider...

Hi Timo,

Many thanks for that - will try it out.  Also happy to try DNN NAV.  However, I am using DNN 5.1 as it came 'out of the box' and I believe it has defaulted to SolPart menu.  Could you please point me any documentation / post etc that explains how to enable NAV?

Many thanks for your help,

Steve

The navigationprovider that are default is set in web.config. It is set to SolpartNavigationProvider. This is done because a lot of old installation use skin made for that provider and dont have the provider set in the skin. However all new skins set the provider in the skin. This is also done in alll new installations.

So you can change in web.config or change/add the provider in your skiin/container. The code below is from the standard Minimalextropy skin.

 <dnn:NAV runat="server" id="dnnNAV"  ProviderName="DNNMenuNavigationProvider" IndicateChildren="false" 
  ControlOrientation="Horizontal" CSSControl="mainMenu" />

Used method suggested - add page and include redirect URL specifying parameters - works fine.
