Is there a way to make the Menu defined in the root folder.metadata appear when viewing a subfolder?
I defined a menu in the root folder.metadata file, I would like for
that menu to be visible regardless of what sub-folder the user is
looking at. Is this possible? I can't find any references to this in
docs or previously in the mailing list.

I am not an expert but don't you have simply another menu defined in
folder.metadata of Public Folders directory which overrides menu
defined in root folder ?

David,
Also note that the "MyStuff" string should be enclosed in "text" tags:
<separator>
<text>MyStuff</text>
<metadata name="icon" xml:lang="en">icon.png</metadata>
</separator>
I have seen very odd behavior when there are errors in the menu tag syntax!

RE: Is there a way to make the Menu defined in the root folder.metadata appear when viewing a subfolder?
Posted by David Just <da...@visionsolutions.com>.
I'm not seeing inheritance.
In the root folder.metadata I have:
<menu name="navigations">
<options>/MyOtherFolder/</options>
<separator>MyStuff
<metadata name="icon" xml:lang="en">icon.png</metadata>
</separator>
<options regexp="true">./my*/</options>
<separator>
<text>Public</text>
</separator>
<options regexp="true">./Public*/</options>
</menu>
When I first access Jetspeed at the root level, I'm presented with my
menu as expected, however when I Click on Public Folders link under
Public Jetspeed takes me to the Public Share page, but my menu is no
longer displayed.
I've tried renaming the menu to something other than navigations, and it
still doesn't work.

David,
Yes, menus are inherited by default along the folder/page hierarchy. Are
you seeing problems with this?
