Ed Hillmann commented on MSITE-345: ----------------------------------- Yes, that worked. When I update my child projects to include a src/site/site.xml that looks like this {code:xml} <project> <version position="right"/> <body> <menu ref="reports"/> </body> </project>{code} then it works the way I want it. This does the same thing as your suggestion of an empty <body> block, except that it generates the reports (which is good, as I would like to have those). So, it seems that once actual named menus are created (<menu name="something"/>), the inheritance gets mucked up. However, this is doing as I want, so I'm happy to reduce the priority of this issue. > Generated site page for child module inherits items from parent site all the > time > --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MSITE-345 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MSITE-345 > Project: Maven 2.x Site Plugin > Issue Type: Bug > Components: inheritance > Affects Versions: 2.0-beta-7 > Environment: Windows XP, Solaris 5.9 > Reporter: Ed Hillmann > > I have a Maven project that consists of a parent project and two child > projects.
