One can add them to the site root and then they'll possibly show on every page below the root, but one can also add or block them on any level in the tree.\r\n\r\nSee https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4JsJreMEKo8 for soem examples.\r\n\r\nIs something like this suitable for wagtail? Im a bit afraid of the db hits if I'd try to implement this. Any thoughts or pointer for me?"}}
