How to rename a folder's "Overview" link in the navigation

| By

When browsing the navigation of your website, you'll find sections with more than one page include an Overview link in the dropdown that allows you to navigate to the top-level page of that section.

There are times when the default "Overview" text can either confuse the user or fail to give the whole picture of what's contained on the page.

Using the Overview Label Field, you can modify this link text without affecting the folder title, page title or breadcrumb titles.

Follow the steps below to update your Overview page link text.

1. Edit the parent folder
