Recent Update mixed up nav bar

**bwood** · 04 August 2023, 08:02 PM

The most recent update for Xara+ didn't do me any favors to the Xara ready made nav bar. Links to pages completely jumbled pointing to other pages. Some pages didn't even appear.

Not the first time this has happened strangely enough. I was able to fix on northeastspca.org - but beware to others with many, many more pages.

I'm almost afraid to make changes on other multi-page sites. Oh well - forward Ho !

Hi Bill, I see you're using .html on your site rather than the previous Xara default .htm extension.

I've no idea but perhaps this messed up when republished. Have you always used .html instead of .htm or is this a recent change?

I went with html if I recall. I had never thought of that actually. Thanks @egg

Thanks Matt I will. Also had a question about incorporating blocks into an existing website. Glad to see blocks now reflect the size of the current website. Great update by the way.

This has also happened to me and I had to spend two days putting them right only to find they're now all messed up again.
I tested adding a block to a non modular website which is what I think has caused it.

Kilo, are the links working correctly if you preview from xara?

No Egg, changed most of the text links to different pages including the nav bar as can be seen on https://www.ruitonmill.co.uk
Some are correct but there's 42 pages on the site with lots text links to other areas of the site so will take me another couple of days to correct but will probably revert back at the next publish - I'm losing the will to liove as I'm not even being paid for this site as I'm one of the charity trustees :-(
I put a block at the bottom of https://www.ruitonmill.co.uk/ellowes.htm page as someone loaned us some old photos taken in the 1950's - I think this is what's caused the problem.
