Global element separate from Master Page

Xway
1

Hello,

I am trying to figure out how to use Xway. I need multiple menus on a page and two of three should be vertical. If need be I can manual curate them. However, the website will eventually grow to hundreds of pages and I don’t want to hand build and then copy and paste every time. Anyone have a suggestion on how to accomplish this?

Hi Mark,

Not a complete answer, but a few points:

  1. It’s not possible to have more than one Xway menu (created via Insert > Menu) on a page.
  2. Built-in menus are always horizontal, so you would need to create your own vertical menus.
  3. The normal way to add elements that are used on multiple pages is to add them to a master page. You can also have master pages that depend on other master pages. This might be useful if you want to have different menus (or submenus) on different groups of pages.

Also: if you’re new to Xway, you might find it helpful to look at the various written and video tutorials. Xway’s support for Flexbox layout is useful if you want to create flexible pages with side-by-side boxes on wider devices.

Thanks @Jeremy ! The embedded master pages might be the way I need to go. Let me look harder at everything. Still looking at the ARIA and/or accessibility features or at least ways I can add them. So far so good. :blush:
