I use the Component art vertical menu on a lot of sites because customers love it. I have a new site I am working on that wants to use it but has a couple of categories that are going to contain only webpages.
Is there anything I can do to make the menu display webpages in the dropdown?

Re: Display Webpages in ComponentArt VerticalMenu
We have one that uses the asp treeview and what we did there was to used the CategoryDataSource.LoadForParent(0,true) for the top categories and the CatalogNode.DataSource.LoadForCategory(categorId) for the lower levels. That way you will pick up objects other than categories. We have boolean variables that can be passed to not show webpages, links, or products.
Filtering it that way only works on a site with a few products for performance reasons. You could use a combination of categories and webpages only then combine the resulting sets.
