Hi Ping,
	The ability to "add" items is controlled by the project =
definition and=20
the user's permissions.  In the sample project you should be able to=20
add pages if you are logged in as author or admin.  The sample project=20=

is not configured to allow you to add a main menu option; you can only=20=

add specific document types like news items, documentation books and=20
chapters, gallery pages, etc., which are then automatically added to=20
the site navigation according to the project's information=20
architecture.  Some other HyperContent sites are configured to allow=20
the user to add more generic main menu options; HyperContent allows you=20=

to implement very flexible or very rigid architectures according to=20
your requirements.  To become more familiar with how projects are=20
configured in HyperContent, please read the "Developing Sites" section=20=

of the HyperContent 1.4 manual, available online at

http://hypercontent.sourceforge.net/docs/manual/develop/index.html

Or you can download the entire HC1.4 manual as a PDF at

http://hypercontent.sourceforge.net/docs/manual/index.pdf

While it is out-of-date with regards to new features in 2.0, the HC1.4=20=

documentation is still very useful.  In HC2.0 the project definition=20
file is now located in the project repository at=20
"/config/project-definition.xml".  This is where a project's=20
information architecture (file types, locations and relationships) are=20=

defined.

If you have questions about how to set up sites to meet your specific=20
design requirements, please join the hypercontent-users mailing list at
