Top Navigation

The top of every Community Central page includes navigation to the main sections of the Community Central Home site. The top navigation is configured using Bamboo SharePoint Navigators, and includes links to the Community Central Home page, the Forums Home page, and the Blogs Home page. Click a navigation link to go to that area of the site.

NOTE: Navigation changes will apply to all pages in the Community Central Home site, but not pages in individual forum and blog sites. Top navigation must be changed separately for each site. For details, see Customizing the Forum Site Top Navigation and Customizing the Blog Site Top Navigation.
