The Navigation overview lists each menu with its links, plus the Manage redirects and Add menu buttons. (Interface shown in Dutch.)

Outcome

You will know which screen to open before you make a change.

Choose the right place

  • Use Navigation when you need to add, remove, or change a link that visitors see in a menu.
  • Use Manage redirects when an old web address should send visitors somewhere else.

Open Navigation

  1. Open Website in the left navigation.
  2. Choose Navigation. Your labels may be in Dutch; look for Navigatie if needed.
  3. Select the site language before checking or changing a menu.

If Navigation is missing, check that you selected the right site. If it is still missing, ask an administrator for access to Navigation.

Warning: Changing a redirect can affect visitors immediately. Deleting a redirect is permanent. Check the old and new web addresses before you save, and do not test redirects on a live or shared page.
