====== Multi Level Navigation ======
aka 'Child Menus', 'Page Hierarchies', 'Nested Menus' and a lot of other things
===== Create a Page Hierarchy of Parents and Children =====
In Page Options you can choose a 'Parent' to mark a page as the 'Child' of another. This has the effect of giving the page a url of example.com/parent/child but doesn't alter the navigation menu links. GS supports any number of levels of url hierarchy, but it's native menu function only displays a single, simple list of links.
===== Insert Navigation Links into the Page Template =====
The default ''get_navigation()'' template tag creates a simple, single series of links to pages marked for inclusion in the menu arranged in order as ''<li>'' elements. To generate nested lists (eg for dropdown menus) or to separate different levels for different menus or to display page titles instead of the specified menu text a plugin is used. [[http://get-simple.info/extend/plugin/i18n/69/|I18N]] is the most popular plugin or there are more simple plugins also in extend. Advanced users can create their own custom menu functions.
===== Style the Navigation with CSS =====

Not all GetSimple themes have CSS to display more than a single ''<ul>'' as a nav menu. You can style your own menus or can to choose a theme which supports multi level navigation.
