Hi all
I have 2 separated navigations, one in the header and one in the footer. 'Til now, i had two Subfolders in the root, one for the pages in the header and one for the pages in the footer. Something like this:
- Root
+-TopNavigation
++-Home
++-Products
+-BottomNavigation
++-Disclaimer
++-Contact

So its easy to use control <% control ChildrenOf(topnavigation) %> and <% control ChildrenOf(bottomnavigation) %> in templates.

With Hirachical URLs, the URL for Products is now TopNavigation/Products. But i don't want to have the Navigation-Pages listed in the nested URL (only "/Products").
Has anyone an idea, how to hide an page in the hirarchical url or has a sugest to improve the structur.
Thank for your help.

you could add a checkbox to page to note whether it is to be shown in the footer or not, and then check that when you're doing the menus

You could put the pages into the Root and turn off "Show in Menus", then, under the TopNavigation and BottomNavigation trees create virtual pages (or redirectors) to the correct real pages.

It's a bit messy - you might like to create a new tree called something nice ("info" maybe) that you can but them under just so it's 'namespaced' and you can keep them out of the way.

Thanks for your Ideas. There are possible ways to solve my problem, but none of them is really easy to use for customers. The solution with different Subtrees-Folders in root was really intuitive and visual.
@Hamish: I don't understand your suggestion with the "info"-tree. Should this tree be in root and which pages should it contain? Woulldn't there be the same problem with the hirarchical-Link (/info/)?

yes.. but that was just to hide everything away so they don't clutter the root node - purely optional.
