My website has the main categories listed in the header area on each page in the site. When you click on a main category link, a page is opened that lists the subcategory menus in the rh menu, the category description and five most recent articles.
When you click on one of the subcategories in the rh list, you're brought to a page that lists the six most recent articles, but to find out the other articles, you have to scroll through the articles by clicking 1, 2, 3, etc.
That is, unless you happen to click on the same subcategory link in the rh column on this second page. If you do, there is finally a drop down list of each article in the subcategory.
I think the navigation is poor and that the drop down menu/list should appear sooner.
I was told by my web developer that with the large number of pages in my site you can't have direct links to everything.
I just think when someone comes into a site, you shouldn't have to squirrel down several levels before discovering all the articles in a subcategory.
Am I wrong about this?
