Hi there,
I experimented a bit with the new Folder option in the navigation structure, and observed the following:
1. Pages inside a folder are always place in the root, regardless of the folder structure.
2. Pages inside a folder not the folder itself show up by default in the Navigation XML.
3. When explicitly pointing to a folder using parentid in a dwnavigation, the pages in that folder do show up in the navigation XML.
4. You can't create folders under regular pages; only inside the root, or as a sub folder to another folder.
Is this by design? A lot of it makes sense to me, but how would you use it in multi-language sites? A folder doesn't have a navigation tag, so how would you have a menu (say, a Footer region) that shows pages from a Footer folder in multiple languages without duplication the layout to point to different IDs? And is this the intended use case for the Folder concept?
Thanks,
Imar
