    This is probably a very basic question, but I’ve yet to find a solution for this.

    I am building a navigation system that the client can proactively add and subtract from. The top level nav is actually each category name within the channel. The secondary nav is each channel entry under each category.

    So far, fairly straightforward process. My problem comes in the top level nav. As they are simply category names, I can’t seem to find a way to attach a page/content to it. I’d like to give the client the ability to attach an entry to each category so a page can be displayed if the nav link is clicked.

    Is there any way to do this?

    But using categories for nav is going to have these issues - it’s tough to get entry-level flexibility at the category level.
