Help! My Menu doesn't work

Normally, the problem is caused by adding 'behaviors'.

So, if you are using a Menu simply use Manage to determine which pages link to what. That's all you need to do.

Note: Adding behaviors ontop of a Menu - such as go to page - will override the Menu links.

These behaviors are for when you would like to turn other objects eg pictures, text and buttons into your navigation .

You can learn more about behaviors here.
