How to hide a page link from the navigation

You may want to hide a page’s link from navigation to allow only certain visitors to see it, for example, when displaying a special event or a limited-time offer.  With Sitebuilder, you can opt out from adding the page’s link to the navigation menu during its creation as well as hide an existing page’s link. 

Let’s explore both options in detail.

Opting out during the page creation

If you want to create a page that will not appear in the navigation menu, follow these steps:

1. Click Pages on the Topbar to open the Page manager.
2. Click the (+) Plus button to open the Add page window.
3. While adding a page, uncheck the Display in navigation option.
   
   
4. Click Submit to save.

Note: This page will remain accessible to your visitors via a direct URL.

Hiding an existing page’s link from the navigation menu

You can remove your existing page link from the navigation menu in two ways: 

• through the Page manager
• through the Navigation menu settings.

Removing the page link from the navigation through the Page manager 

To remove the existing page link from the site navigation using the Page manager, follow these steps: 

1. Click Pages on the Topbar to open the Page manager.
2. Find the target page in the list and click the Settings icon near it to open Page Settings.
3. In the General tab, untick the Display in navigation checkbox.
   
   
4. Click Submit to save the changes.

Note: To bring this page URL back to navigation, go to Page Settings again and tick the checkbox next to Display in navigation, then click Submit. You can also use the undo button to reverse the action. 

Removing the existing page link through the Navigation settings

To hide an existing page from the navigation menu through the Navigation settings, follow these instructions:

1. Click the header navigation area to activate the Navigation settings menu.
2. Click the folder tree icon to open the Navigation settings.  
3. Find the page link you want to remove from the navigation and click the trash bin icon near it.
   
   
4. Click Submit to save. 

Note: Remember, you can reverse this action in the Sitebuilder until you’ve published the site.
