Programmatically enable Show Subsites and Show Pages for Current navigation in SharePoint

In this blog we will be seeing how to enable Show subsites and Show Pages for Current navigation using object model in SharePoint 2010

I have a site collection with the SharePoint Server Publishing Infrastructure feature enabled on the site collection and sites with the SharePoint Server Publishing site feature activated.

Go to Site Actions => Site Settings => Look and Feel => Navigation => Current Navigation.




In the current navigation section  you could see the following options



Programmatically Enable/Disable Current Navigation Settings



using (SPSite siteCollection = new SPSite("http://servername:1111/sites/sample"))
{
using (SPWeb web = siteCollection.RootWeb)
{
PublishingWeb publishingWeb = PublishingWeb.GetPublishingWeb(web);
// Current navigation
//Show Subsites
publishingWeb.Navigation.CurrentIncludeSubSites = false;
//Show Pages
publishingWeb.Navigation.CurrentIncludePages = false;
// Maximum number of dynamic items to show within this level of navigation:
publishingWeb.Navigation.CurrentDynamicChildLimit = 50;

//Update the changes
publishingWeb.Update();
}
}
