Generally, it contains links to the subsites of the site you are currently in. The site owner however can add links to other pages, content structures or webpages if needed. T OP L INK B AR I NHERITANCE In many cases a you may want to standardize navigation and make it consistent across a site and its subsites. A subsite can inherit its parent site’s Top Link bar. If so, you want to ensure the parent site has a link to its own homepage so user can navigate back to it from the subsite inheriting the Top Link bar.
