Nautilus menus - articles - blogs

[xmanhattan]

Hello all,

First: The new docs are terrific looking and very helpful.  You guys are doing a fantastic job.

First is I created a category named blog and added an article, then I created a top menu item called My Blog and entered blog/ into the Elxis link.
When I click on My Blog I see what I have entered into the category description area but nothing else.
I read the How do I create a blog? but did not understand where to find the blog style mentioned in the docs.
Where is the  blog style that the docs refer to?

Second: I added a submenu item on the top menu by adding content: before the category name.
I believe from what I am seeing, that Nautilus can deliver html5 and data using the new elxis efactory parameters and so, I would like to ask how to create a menu like this?  In other words, I assume that the menu is created in the template files but which parameters would be used to display the following in the menu:

• get a category name
  get an image
  get some content description
  

as shown in the image below.



Third:  I created a article but did not assign a category.  It appears that the article then becomes the category and is only found when clicking on the content - > categories and which is editable from there.  This is fine as I am considering using it a front page and set it as such in the home menus.
My question regards the parameters tab.  Specifically the Page Style Layout.  There are 4 choices: global, flat, left-right-bottom, and top-left-right.
I tried them but did not see any difference regarding the page after refreshing.  How is the feature used?

Thanks
