If you select one of the multi-page themes for your web site you will see a sidebar (sometimes called a "navbar") containing links on the left side of all of your web pages. You can change the names of the links, remove links you don't want, and add new links.
The sidebar links are divided into two groups. The upper group is intended for general links and the lower for links to your classes and related resources. However, the links are completely editable and you can organize them any way you want.
To change your lists of links click on either the upper or lower Edit buttons in the sidebar.
This opens a page that is very similar to the Edit Story page that you use to edit the contents of your home page or one of your other web pages. However, the Text area on this page includes text that goes in the sidebar.
Note that the pre-existing links in the sidebar are created by placing story titles and/or shortcuts in quotations. In other words, the link to Course 1 found in the default Multi-Page theme is created by including the title of the Course 1 story in quotation marks: "Course 1". If you have a story called About Me, you can add a sidebar link by typing "About Me" here.
By the way, your sidebar links are a great place to use shortcuts. For example, you may have created a page about one of your classes and used the course number and name as the title: Music: 8B: Introduction to Electronic Music. However, this may be too long to fit in your sidebar. Instead create a shortcut to this page and call it Music 8B or Intro to Electronic Music and type "Music 8B" or "Intro to Electronic Music" for the sidebar link.
Note that you will probably have to use at least one simple bit of html coding in your sidebar. To format the sidebar so that each link is on a separate line you will use the break tag which looks like this: <BR>. You'll see the <BR> tag in the sidebar text when you click the Edit button. Follow the existing example and add a new <BR> tag if you add more links. Here is an example:
"Course 1" <BR>"Course 2" <BR>"Course 3"
