    Navigation Menu in Umbraco 5.0.1

    Can some one please explain how to mdify the default navigation menu in the umbraco 5.0.1 source code.

    I need to change the DynamicModel so that it accepts the custom navigation menu.Need to modify the @DynamicModel in the navigation.cshtml,so that i can have my own navigation menu

    @inherits RenderViewPage
    @using Umbraco.Cms.Web;

     @{
         var Homepage = @DynamicModel;
         while (Homepage.ContentType.Alias != "homePage")
         {
             Homepage = Homepage.Parent;
         }
     }
      <ul>
      <li><a href="@Homepage.Url">Home</a></li>
      @foreach (var item in Homepage.Children)
      {
          if (@item.CurrentTemplate != null)
          {
              var childName = item.Name ?? "(No name yet)";
              <li><a href="@item.Url">@childName </a></li>
          }
      }
      </ul>

    Thanks in advance

                                                    }

                                            </ul>

                                    </li>

                          }

                        }

                </ul>

            </li>

          

            

          }

      }

    </ul>

     

    </div>

     

     

    I have made the modifications to the default code as above,Now I can see Child menus and 3rd level child menus too.Hope would be useful to someone.And to change DynamicModel we have to modify it from the backoffice,I was ignorant.

    I am trying out your code.  Thanks for that.

    What performance issues are you seeing?  Also, have you found a solution to the "Hide in Navigation" problem.  I don't want every single page showing up in my navigation.

    Thanks,

    Doug
