modifying menu in site assist

I want to modify the menu as I have about 30 different product categories and the flyout menu would be all over the site as you click on it.

I'd like to create individual category buttons so when you click on that button you would open that product category. I tried renaming the categories in Site Assist and moving them to the left so they would fall into the main menu but it did not work.

Any assistance or advise would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I think an example of what you are currently experiencing and the result that you get with the update that you made would be helpful. You should be able to edit the menu in whatever way you see fit, I'm just not sure exactly about the edit that you are trying to make.

When I modify the menu in Site Assist the changes do not appear in Dreamweaver when I open the pages changed nor do the changes show on my local test server. They do however show up in the Site Assist Program if you click on the preview window below such as preview home page & content pages.

What I'd like to accomplish is rather than have a fly out menu for my products I rather have each product category listed separately and when these menu buttons are clicked it would take you to the products in that category.......no fly out just content pages with actual products.

I have tried many times to get this to work but every time I preview these changes hitting F12 or view them in Dreamweaver the changes don't show. I also noticed that when I created another menu category a folder was not created in the root folder of Dreamweaver..........I noticed folders 1-4 which is predetermined/established in Site Assist but no folder for Category 5 I created......do I need to create separate folders for each category I create or should Site Assist do this as I use the wizard?

Thanks

Whatever structural changes to make to the site within the wizard should be generated when you finish the wizard. If you are modifying an existing site you must select this option from the site menu.

If your SiteAssist Pro is not doing this for you there may be a problem with the configuration. Please try the steps listed here to see if you can overcome this problem. If not let us know and I will look into this further with you.
