New feature for hosted microblogs: you can now hide a page from the main navigation. There’s a checkbox for it when adding or editing a page. Useful if you need some standalone pages (not blog posts) that you can link to as-needed but don’t want to crowd the navigation. Enjoy!
@chet You should be able to grab on the right side of the list to drag to re-order them. (Might take a minute to update on your site. Also, likely easier on the desktop than mobile.)
@manton this is a really nice small feature! Don’t need it most of the time, but when you do, it’s great to have!
@manton Thankyou again ... seperate but related question ... any chance of ability to add a nav link to a page that is NOT in MicroBlog?
@manton I'm in the same situation as @chet. The archive has never appeared as an editable page, even just to move it. So I just created a new page of the same name, thinking the 'About' trick might work; whilst the new 'Archive' page does indeed have the archive function on it, the old one has remained so now there are two of that page in my nav.
@simonwoods @chet Oh, sorry I misunderstood. I think that might be an oversight... I'm rolling out a couple page improvements tonight so I'll look into it.
@JohnPhilpin Sort of. If you create a page with the content as just a URL, it will automatically redirect there.
@manton oohh - got excited there … thankyou but micro blog seems to be rewriting the URL ..
On john.philpin.com I have added a page ‘Blottings’ - which is: blottings.philpin.com
so that is the URL I added on the page.
It redirects to : john.philpin.com/blottings/
Any ideas?
@JohnPhilpin It's redirecting for me when I click on the link. (It's not a direct link... It sends it to your blog briefly and then redirects out.)
@manton - oh wait - cancel that - just saw the page that @simonwoods pointed to ... so I removed the s to just be http and all is working fine - WOW.
filed under ‘gems you keep discovering about mico blog' - though that will soon need its own filing cabinet - not just the two drawers.
@manton thankyou - you were too quick - there was an https ref in there causing the problem - now working - per earlier.
