  We are developing a site that will have navigation across both the top and down the left.  How do we specify certain pages to only display in the tab menu and other pages to only display in the panel bar? 
  
  Please advise and thanks in advance.

  Hello Andy Smith,
  
  The SiteMenu has a property called StartingNodeUrl which you can use to select the starting node from where the RadMenu binding will start. You can add the code below to the SitePanelBar or your custom control to expose  the same functionality for the RadPanel bar control
  
  

  [WebEditor("Telerik.Cms.Web.UI.UrlEditorWrapper, Telerik.Cms")]

     [Browsable(true)]

     [Category("Navigation")]

     public string StartingNodeUrl

     {

         get

         {

             return this.SiteMapDataSource1.StartingNodeUrl;

         }

         set

         {

             this.SiteMapDataSource1.StartingNodeUrl = value;

         }

     }

  
  Another option is creating a custom controls and bind them to the pages you want.
  
  

  • RadMenu DataBinding
  • RadPanelBar DataBinding

  I've tried adding the code above to the PanelBar control but I am geeting the following errors:
  
  Description: An error occurred during the compilation of a resource required to service this request. Please review the following specific error details and modify your source code appropriately.
  
  Compiler Error Message: CS0246: The type or namespace name 'WebEditor' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
  
  Source Error:

  what can I do to get this working?

  Hi shae,
  
  You have to add reference to Telerik.Cms.Web.UI.WebEditorAttribute

  How do I add the reference to this? I tried adding
  using Telerik.Cms.Web.UI.WebEditorAttribute;
  
  But I get the error:
  

  c:\Program Files\Telerik\Sitefinity3.7\WebSites\HCE2\Sitefinity\UserControls\Navigation35\SitePanelbar.ascx.cs(18): error CS0138: A using namespace directive can only be applied to namespaces; 'Telerik.Cms.Web.UI.WebEditorAttribute' is a type not a namespace

  I figured it out, it should be:
  [Telerik.Cms.Web.UI.WebEditor("Telerik.Cms.Web.UI.UrlEditorWrapper, Telerik.Cms")]
