Node

Created by Contensis product team, last updated 09 Jul 2020

A node represents a location within the navigational structure of a website. The linking of nodes as parent-child relationships forms the hierarchical structure of a website, with a node having a single parent and (optionally) multiple child nodes.

A single entry can be assigned to a node, separating the responsibility of navigation management from content editing.
