    Change the Subsites and Pages navigation setting by code

    February 27, 2008   11:12


    It took me quite some time to figure out how to change the Subsites and Pages settings by code. I finally manged to change them. The setting “Show subsites” can be altered in 2 ways. I was only able to change the “Show pages” on a publishing site.

    Change the Subsites and Pages navigation setting by code

    Method 1 (”Show subsites” only)
    With this code you will access the AllProperties setting of the Sharepoint Site and change the __IncludeSubSitesInNavigation value. Somehow there is no such property for the “Show pages”.

    SPWeb web = new SPSite(webCollection).OpenWeb();
    web.AllProperties["__IncludeSubSitesInNavigation"] = “False”;
    web.Update();
    web.Close();
    web.Dispose();

    Method 2
    With this code the “Show pages” and “Show subsites” option are disabled. To access these properties your site must be a publishing site.

    SPWeb web = new SPSite(webCollection).OpenWeb();
    PublishingWeb publishingWeb = PublishingWeb.GetPublishingWeb(web);
    publishingWeb.IncludePagesInNavigation = false;
    publishingWeb.IncludeSubSitesInNavigation = false;
    publishingWeb.Update();
    publishingWeb.Close();
    web.Close();
    web.Dispose();
