Customizing Left Menu and Footer

The left navigation menu and footer displayed on every page can be customized by editing two special pages: left-menu-content and footer-content. Changes take effect immediately without restarting the server.

This applies to users with the Editor or Admin role.

Left Menu Content

The left menu is rendered from the page with slug left-menu-content.

To edit it:

1. Navigate to /view/left-menu-content
2. Click Edit
3. Update the navigation links using standard markup or HTML anchors
4. Save — the new menu appears on all pages immediately

If no left-menu-content page exists, the system falls back to the built-in LeftMenu required page.

Footer Content

The footer is rendered from the page with slug footer-content.

To edit it:

1. Navigate to /view/footer-content
2. Click Edit
3. Update the footer text, links, or variables (see below)
4. Save — the new footer appears on all pages immediately

If no footer-content page exists, the system falls back to the built-in Footer required page.

Available Variables

You can use the following system variables inside either page:

Plugin directives such as [{CurrentTimePlugin}] and [{UptimePlugin}] are also supported.

Notes

• These pages are ordinary pages — they appear in search results and the page index.
• Only users with Editor or Admin role can edit them.
• To reset to defaults, delete the page and the system will fall back to the built-in required page.
