Navigation
Top navigation
The top navigation entries can be modified in packages/gatsby-theme-docs/src/data/top-menu.yaml.
Side navigation
The left-hand navigation allows you to navigate different pages in the microsite, while the right-hand navigation allows you to navigate within a page. You can organize the pages shown in the left-hand navigation in /src/data/navigation.yaml.
Child section navigation
As the name suggests, it is a navigator within a section that is used to shorten the right-hand navigation. It condenses headings (from level 3 to 6) and displays them within this section, rather than the right-hand navigation. Hierarchy can be represented by adding additional #. It supports one level of hierarchy inside the child section navigator. Deeper nesting is not recommended and rendered as the second level.
This is the syntax <ChildSectionsNav parent="a-section-slug" /> to add the navigation.
<ChildSectionsNav parent="child-section-example" /> is rendered as shown here.
At commercetools, we typically use the child section navigation in Representations and Update Actions of resource pages. As the list can be long in some cases, use navLevels and set to 2 in the frontmatter of the MDX file. This displays only upto level 2 headings in the right-hand index navigation of the page.
Adding the flag removes all level 3 headings in a page from the right-hand index navigation.
