    Sub-Site Navigation issue

     
    Yet another navigation issue. 

    So, I've got a site collection with a top level site of Human Resources.  I've also got a sub-site of Human Resources called Recruitment. 


    The issue:

    When navigating to the Human Resources page the page title correctly displays as "Human Resources"

    However, when navigating to the Recruitment sub-site the page title still continues to display "Human Resources" although the breadcrumb trail in the content page displays "Human Resources > Recruitment"

    I've checked the pages out in SharePoint Designer and noticed that the page title is an AspMenu control that has an attribute of DataSourceID with a value of SiteMapDataSourceRoot.  The content page on the other hand uses a asp SiteMapPath control with an attribute of SiteMapProvider and a value of CurrentNavSiteMapProviderNoEncode. 

    Since the problem is displaying the current sub-site name on the AspMenu control that is part of the MasterPage do I need to modify the SiteMapDatasourceRoot xml file to include the list of sub-sites? 

    Or

    Create an actual sitemap and have the AspMenu control point to the sitemap?

    Brandon: Which title are you referring to? Is it the one above the site collection navigation or the one below the breadcrumb? And what type of site template did you use in the sub-site?
