   I agree with you  that it would be a good addition.
It's not in my hands though as I'm unnonnected with EarlyImpact.
I was just showing that it can be done through product admin already in a different way.
cheers

	Mark, This is too complex. it should be pretty simple to work on from the "Manage Content pages" itself. It can handy for the non-technical users, who manage their own store. Regards,

	Sure In fact thinking about it a bit more - this could be done now.... 1. Define a master category 'help pages' or similar, 2. define sub-categories 'buyers guide' 'our product range'. 3. Create sub-categories underneath them, each being a page of content. 3. Put the text into the long description fields of these level 3 sub-categories. 4. Don't define any products underneath.... 5. Re-generate navigation (v3). Using v3 of ProductCart you can show categories in a pull down list-box set at the category in addition to the level, rather than as links in a page. So that would give a dynamic menu based approach to content pages. It's not how it was intended, but it would work. cheers Mark Edited by MarkCoyle - 08-August-2006 at 8:44am

	Hi, Nice suggestion, this will be easy if the sub-category pages are displayed within the page, and not some DHTML menu. What do you say?

	Hi all, I find the Content Pages capability very helpful. A very useful enhancement to this in all kinds of ways is to have 'categories' that Content Pages can be attached to. Then when displayed on the dynamic navigation this would automatically appear. So you could have a 'Service Guides' category and link your content pages to it and a 'Reward Scheme' category etc etc. It's a comparatively simple addition but brings very flexible, powerful features. cheers Mark
