New navbar for qmd files within a subfolder

[bsureshkrishna]

Hi,

Newbie question. I am building a lab website. For individual lab member webpages, I want to use a different navbar. So I have put the lab member pages into a subfolder, then added this to _metadata.yml as well as to labmember1.qmd - but it does not change the navbar at all. Also since the metadata is merged with that in _quarto.yml, if I want to delete the navbar links defined there and only use the ones defined for the .qmd files in this subfolder, I dont see how I can do that. Thanks !

Right now, navbars are global - there isn't a way to override them on a per page basis. Could you use a sidebar for this instead?

Thank you for the clarification. Yes, I will have to figure out another way. Perhaps by hosting individual pages on a second site with a different navbar..

Hi,
are there any plans to make navbars (especially sidebars) not global? So I can have different sidebars for different pages?
Thanks!

it seems what I was looking for is already possible with hybrid navigation. at least to some extend :-)
