The menu is pulled in based on where closest the NavRoot is set on the current branch above the current section. The menu displays a link to the NavRoot, followed by child pages and grandchild pages of the NavRoot (2 levels of the Site Structure).
The NavRoot is set by an administrator adding the NavRoot content type to a section (the content item must be called NavRoot).
See in the following annotated screenshot of a left menu where the Education Abroad section has been set as the NavRoot where:
- Green is the link to the NavRoot
- Blue are the children of the NavRoot
- Orange is a child with children
- Red is not shown as section contains no approved content items
- Purple is a section where child pages are not shown as there is a single child section set to not shown in navigation
