WSS 3.0 : Adding links to the quick launch bar

  • [アーティクル]

Microsoft.SharePoint.Navigation API allow us to add new link to the quick launch bar of your site. The sample code in the SDK is as follows.

 

SPSite siteCollection = SPControl.GetContextSite(Context);

SPWeb site = siteCollection.AllWebs["TestSite"];

SPWeb subSite = site.Webs["SubTestSite"];

 

SPNavigationNodeCollection nodes = subSite.Navigation.QuickLaunch;

SPNavigationNode navNode = new SPNavigationNode("New Link", "https://www.msn.com", true);

nodes.AddAsFirst(navNode);

 

 

Question #1 : How can I add links to my subsites?

 

                You can add the links to your subsites for your site as below.

SPNavigationNode navNode = new SPNavigationNode("New Link", "subsite1/subsite2", true);

 

                The result will be https://<server>/sites/ TestSite/Subsite1/subsite2

 

Question #2: How can I add links to the external site?

 

SPNavigationNode navNode = new SPNavigationNode("New Link", "https://www.msn.com", true);

 

Note : Its mandatory that you have to use “http” (or any other protocol specifier) in the url parameter to specify the external url. Other wise it will be treated as a relative path. Say if you pass, “www.msn.com”, then the result will be TestSite/www.msn.com. so the protocol specifier should be used in the URL.
