I'd agree with Vincent there on having fixed navigation panels..
Generally, especially when using panels; try to have your visible panels
as lightweight as possible; the entire panel gets reloaded for every
page you view - thus performance will become a growing problem.

        Hi,
        One way to do it is to by default hide pages unless a page
doesn't have a parent or contains a specific tag.
Good point.
Actually I would do it slightly differently. I would add all pages
unless the page has a special "hidden" tag, so that any page created by
the user is visible by default. Then all "technical" pages should be
tagged with that "hidden" tag.
But I still believe the best solution is to have a fixed navigation as
the default Navigation panel doesn't scale when # of pages increase.
Thanks

        Please see attached code.  All spaces defined in
"hiddenPagesSpaces" will get this special treatment. Show a page by
leaving the parent field blank. A page will also be shown if it contains
the tag "showPage".

 If you edit the panel, you will see on the third line

"Blog.Macros", 
"Main.TagsRss",
  "Main.Ouverture",

 just tack the names of the spaces you wish to hide to 
that list or use
  the blacklisted pages list just after that if the
pages always have
  the same name.
 
                Hi,
                actually I realised that, but I am trying to do
something a little
                different. For example, under the Blog heading, I would
avoid listing all
                the blogs and only keep WEB HOME, CATEGORIES and ADD NEW
BLOG. otherwise the
                menu becomes too crowded
