These chapters are written for power users and package contributors. If you're just looking to get a site up and running,
you can safely skip this section. The documentation here will cover advanced topics under the presumption that
the reader has a basic to intermediate understanding of programming, as well as PHP, object-oriented design,
and to some extent Laravel, as the articles are heavily driven by code examples.

When Hyde references files, especially when passing filenames between components, the file path is almost always
relative to the root of the project. Specifying absolute paths yourself will likely lead to unforeseen problems.

### Navigation Menu & Sidebar

One of my favourite features with Hyde is its automatic navigation menu and documentation sidebar generator.
A great time-saving feature of HydePHP is the automatic navigation menu and documentation sidebar generation.
Hyde is designed to automatically configure these menus for you based on the content you have in your project.

#### How it works:
Still, you will likely want to customize some parts of these menus, and thankfully, Hyde makes it easy to do so.

The sidebar works by creating a list of all the documentation pages.
#### Customizing the navigation menu

The navigation menu is a bit more sophisticated, it adds all the top-level Blade and Markdown pages.
It also adds an automatic link to the docs if there is an `index.md` in the `_docs` directory.
- To customize the navigation menu, use the setting `navigation.order` in the `hyde.php` config.
- When customizing the navigation menu, you should use the [route key](core-concepts#route-keys) of the page.

#### Reordering Sidebar Items
Learn more in the [Navigation Menu](navigation-menus) documentation.

Sadly, Hyde is not intelligent enough to determine what order items should be in (blame Dr Jekyll for this),
so you will probably want to set a custom order.
#### Customizing the documentation sidebar

Reordering items in the documentation sidebar is as easy as can be. In the `docs` config, there is an array just for this.
If a page identifier is found here it will get priority calculated according to its position in the list,
plus an offset of 500. This offset allows you to pages earlier in the list using front matter.
- To customize the sidebar, use the setting `sidebar_order` in the `docs.php` config.
- When customizing the sidebar, can use the route key, or just the [page identifier](core-concepts#page-identifiers) of the page.

If a page does not exist in the list they get priority 999, which puts them last.
You can also use front matter to set a priority for a page.
The front matter value will always take precedence.
Learn more in the [Documentation Pages](documentation-pages) documentation.

Let's see an example:
>info Tip: When using subdirectory-based dropdowns, you can set their priority using the directory name as the array key.
### Primer on priorities

All navigation menu items have an internal priority value that determines its order in the navigation.
Lower values means that the item will be higher up in the menu. The default for pages is `999` which puts them last.
However, some pages are autoconfigured to have a lower priority, for example, the `index` page defaults to a priority of `0`,

#### Basic syntax for changing the priorities

The cleanest way is to use the list-style syntax where each item will get the priority calculated according to its position in the list, plus an offset of `500`.
The offset is added to make it easier to place pages earlier in the list using front matter or with explicit priority settings.

```php
// filepath: config/docs.php
// These are the default values in the config. It puts the readme.md first in order.
'sidebar_order' => [
'readme', // This is the first entry, so it gets the priority 500 + 0
'installation', // This gets priority 500 + 1
'getting-started', // And this gets priority 500 + 2
// Any other pages not listed will get priority 999
[
'readme', // Gets priority 500
'installation', // Gets priority 501
'getting-started', // Gets priority 502
]
```

#### Reordering Navigation Menu Items
#### Explicit syntax for changing the priorities

As Hyde makes an effort to organize the menu items in a sensible way, your project comes preconfigured to put what it thinks are your most
important pages first. This may of course not always match what you want, so thankfully it's easy to reorder the menu items!
You can also specify explicit priorities by adding a value to the array key:

```php
[
'readme' => 10, // Gets priority 10
'installation' => 15, // Gets priority 15
'getting-started' => 20, // Gets priority 20
]
```

Simply update the `navigation.order` array in the Hyde config! The priorities set will determine the order of the menu items.
Lower values are higher in the menu, and any pages not listed will get priority 999, which puts them last.
You can also combine these options if you want:

```php
// filepath config/hyde.php
'navigation' => [
'order' => [
'index' => 0, // _pages/index.md (or .blade.php)
'posts' => 10, // _pages/posts.md (or .blade.php)
'docs/index' => 100, // _docs/index.md
]
[
'readme' => 10, // Gets priority 10
'installation', // Gets priority 500
'getting-started', // Gets priority 501
]
```

#### Adding Custom Navigation Menu Links
#### Changing the menu item labels

You can easily add custom navigation menu links similar how we add Authors. Simply add a `NavItem` model to the `navigation.custom` array.
Hyde makes a few attempts to find a suitable label for the navigation menu items to automatically create helpful titles.
You can override the label using the `navigation.label` front matter property.

When linking to an external site, you should use the `NavItem::forLink()` method facade. The first two arguments are the
destination and label, both required. Third argument is the priority, which is optional, and defaults to 500.
From the Hyde config you can also override the label of navigation links using the by mapping the route key
to the desired title. Note that the front matter property will take precedence over the config property.

```php
// filepath config/hyde.php
use Hyde\Framework\Features\Navigation\NavItem;

'navigation' => [
'custom' => [
NavItem::forLink('https://github.com/hydephp/hyde', 'GitHub', 200),
'labels' => [
'index' => 'Start',
'docs/index' => 'Documentation',
]
]
```

Simplified, this will then be rendered as follows:

```html
<a href="https://github.com/hydephp/hyde">GitHub</a>
```

#### Excluding Items (Blacklist)

Sometimes, especially if you have a lot of pages, you may want to prevent links from showing up in the main navigation menu.
To remove items from being automatically added, simply add the page's route key to the blacklist.
As you can see, the `404` page has already been filled in for you.

```php
// filepath config/hyde.php
'navigation' => [
