<h4>Update</h4>
<p><strong>Our new plugin, <a href="http://wpml.org" rel="nofollow ugc">WPML</a>, includes the functionality of <em>CMS Navigation</em> and is recommended for new designs.</strong></p>
<p>It features much cleaner and simpler HTML and customization via the admin screen.</p>
<p>Additionally, we recommend you checkout our new CMS enabling plugins <strong>Types</strong> and <strong>Views</strong>.</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://wp-types.com/home/types-manage-post-types-taxonomy-and-custom-fields/" rel="nofollow ugc">Types – The Custom Types and Custom Fields Plugin</a> – manages custom content type, including post types, taxonomy and custom fields.</li>
<li><a href="http://wp-types.com/" rel="nofollow ugc">Views – The Custom Content Display Plugin</a> – displays custom content types in whatever way you choose.</li>
</ul>
<p>With Types and Fields, you can achieve the functionality of this plugin yourself and customize it in whatever way you like.</p>
<h4>Legacy Stuff</h4>
<p>Do you want to use WordPress to create a full website, with easy navigation and menus?<br />
This plugin will let you add essential navigation functions to your template, including:</p>
<ul>
<li>Top navigation bar, listing the top-level pages and their children (as drop-down items).</li>
<li>Breadcrumbs trail navigation that shows the path to the current page all the way from the home page.</li>
<li>Left navigation that shows where the visitor is next to the page’s parent and nearby pages.</li>
</ul>
<p>No configuration is required. To use, add the calls that create each navigation element to your template.<br />
These calls can be added to any WP template</p>
<p>There are three template functions that can be used for displaying the navigation sections</p>
<h4>Drop down top menu</h4>
<p>Function:<br />
    cms_navigation_menu_nav($order=’menu_order’, $show_cat_menu=false, $catmenu_title=’News’)</p>
<p>This will display the top navigation – the top level pages with their sub pages as drop down elements.<br />
Additionally – if specified – the menu will include the top level post categories at the end.</p>
<p>Normally, this function is added to your header.php file, so that it applies to the entire website.</p>
<p>Examples:</p>
<ul>
<li><code><?php cms_navigation_menu_nav() ?></code> – include without the categories menu.</li>
<li><code><?php cms_navigation_menu_nav('post_title') ?></code> – sort items by title.</li>
<li><code><?php cms_navigation_menu_nav('menu_order',true,'News') ?></code> – sort items according to the ‘order’ field.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Breadcrumbs trail navigation</h4>
<p>Function:<br />
    cms_navigation_breadcrumb()</p>
<p>This will display a path from the current page all the way to the home page.<br />
It’s useful for visitors who land in your website to know where they are and be able to navigate to relevant pages.</p>
<p><strong>For posts</strong></p>
<pre><code>Home >> CATEGORY-NAME >> Post title
</code></pre>
<p><strong>For pages</strong></p>
<pre><code>Home >> Parent pages... >> Page title
</code></pre>
<p>All the items back to the home page will be clickable.</p>
<p>You can add this function to single.php and page.php so that it will produce trail navigation for every page or post.</p>
<h4>Sidebar navigation</h4>
<p>Function:<br />
    cms_navigation_page_navigation($order=’menu_order’)</p>
<p>This will display the sidebar navigation for pages.<br />
It will show a tree created the page parents and it’s ‘brother’ pages (other children to the same parent).</p>
<p>This function should be added to page.php, as it provides local navigation between pages.</p>
<h4>Live example using this plugin</h4>
<p><a href="http://www.baripedia.com" title="Tourist resource site for the city of Bariloche" rel="nofollow ugc">Baripedia</a> is using this plugin (and other CMS related plugins we’ve written).</p>
