Keep secondary navigation alongside the main page content.

  • A page with Bootstrap 5 included. Load its JavaScript for collapse, dropdown, tab or dismiss interactions.

Keep secondary navigation alongside the main page content. This reference describes the inserted template. It contains static sample content and no App Connect data bindings or application event handlers.

Insert the block into a Bootstrap 5 page, then expand it in App Structure. Select the child whose content or styling you want to change; there is no separate block configuration form.

Part How to adapt it
ImagesReplace the 1 image element with your own sources and appropriate alt text. Preserve or deliberately change the crop/aspect ratio. Remote sample image URLs are not bundled project assets.
LinksReview all 9 anchors. Replace placeholder # links and sample routes with working destinations; a sample /login or /signup path does not create that page.
Bootstrap interactionThe template declares collapse behavior through data-bs-toggle. Load the matching Bootstrap 5 JavaScript. Preserve data-bs-target/href targets and unique ids; App Connect data loading is a separate concern.
Application buttonsThe sample includes 1 button without an application event binding. Native submit/reset behavior still applies when those types are used inside forms. Give icon-only buttons an accessible name and connect or remove actions users cannot yet complete.

Replace the sample content with the message, images and destinations for this page. The layout supplies structure and Bootstrap styling; add a data source or application actions only where the intended workflow requires them.

Insert this layout into a Bootstrap 5 page, expand it in App Structure and replace the first visible label or content placeholder with “Workspace navigation”. Preview at narrow and wide widths; verify the chosen layout still leaves room for the main page content. Test every retained navigation/control with the keyboard.

Use the starter-block guide for insertion and adaptation. For live records or user actions, connect the matching App Connect workflow after the static layout is readable.

You can identify the inserted parts, replace sample content and distinguish supplied Bootstrap behavior from application work still to implement.
