Preventing a webpage from appearing in the navigation menu

As you add pages to your website, iWeb updates your site’s navigation menu to include links to those new pages.

However, you can prevent a page from appearing in the navigation menu. This is useful if, for example, a page is not ready to be viewed when you publish your site.

To prevent a page from appearing in the navigation menu:

  1. Select the page you don’t want to appear in the navigation menu by clicking it in the sidebar on the left of the iWeb window.

  2. If the Page inspector isn’t open, click the Inspector button in the toolbar at the bottom of the iWeb window (or choose View > Show Inspector), and then click the Page button.

  3. Image of Page Inspector Page pane.
  4. In the Page pane, deselect “Include page in navigation menu.”

If you prevent a page from appearing in the navigation menu, you can create a link to it from another page in your site so that visitors can access it.

If you prevent your site’s homepage from appearing in the navigation menu, the page is still visible to visitors who go to your website by entering its web address (URL) into a browser.
