##Installation

  1. Clone or download Navee
  2. Move entire folder into craft/plugins folder. If you used the download zip option, your folder may be named "navee-master". Rename it "navee".
  3. In the CMS, navigate to Settings > Plugins.
  4. Click the Install button for Navee.

##Creating your first navigation

  1. Click on the new Navee section in the CMS.

  2. Enter a Name and a Handle for your navigation. Click Save. You can ignore the field layout section for now. Information on leveraging these fields in your navigation can be found here.

  3. Click the Navigations tab. Your new navigation should already be selected.

  4. Use the New Node button to add nodes to your navigation. The New Node screen allows you to link to an entry or add a custom Uri. There are a number of attribute options available by default. If you need more, add custom fields in the navigation edit screen from step 2. You can use the Parent Node selector on the right to nest nodes or drag and drop them in the Navigations tab at any time.

  5. In your template, use a navee tag to render your navigation like so: {{ craft.navee.nav('navHandleHere') }}. This is the most simple implementation. The Tags section of this wiki explores the many available options.
