New "Your Links" menu on telerik.com

Sunday, January 25, 2009 by Websites Team | Comments 6

As telerik.com grows bigger, you may start finding it time-consuming to navigate to the deeper pages in the site hierarchy. The increasing number of clicks is getting irritating, especially for regular visitors of the site. 

We tried to tackle this problem by introducing a supplemental navigation tool (you need to be logged in to see it).

The "Your Links" menu is straight-forward to use: bookmark, rearrange and delete your favorite telerik.com pages.

1. Go to the page you want to bookmark and expand the menu. 

2. Bookmark the currently opened page by pressing the "Add Current Page" button.

3. Type in the name of the link, or just leave it with its default name and click "Done".

The link is immediately added to the menu. 
The bullet point indicates the page is currently opened.

Hovering the links reveals options for rearranging and deleting.

We'd like to hear your feedback. Do you find the "Your Links" menu useful?

    great feature, unfortunately I don't seem to be able to add a a link to my favourite telerik demo page ... yet?

    Excellent feature!  Except that I instantly imagined that this would be how I keep track of all those demo pages that I wanted to re-visit or remember existed.  Any chance you could include the bookmark feature on the demo pages? (asp.net ajax)

    And the blog pages for that matter.

    Thank you all for the valuable input. We will certainly consider the suggested enhancements in the future updates to that feature.
    Best!
