WPC Migration to 7.3 - Navigation

Question

Hi Everyone,
     We are in the process of migrating WPC content originally created in version 7.0 to 7.3.
     After connecting the Area to the Role I haven't been able to set the top level entry points correctly. I need to define the content below the Area as the role entry points. However when I open the connection and set the entry points in the workset it has no effect. Setting the root node of the workset has no effect either.
     Only when I set the entry point at the role level it ha some effect so if I create a folder inside the role and insert the connection I will see the folder as entry point, the second level would be the area name and the content inside the area would appear as the detailed navigation.
    Ideally I would like to define the content below the area as entry points having them appear at the TLN and then using sort priority and merge id combine the area content with the content defined at the role level.
Best regards,
Andrés Acero

Andres,
We had the same problem. Unfortunately there is no standard solution.
You cannot set an area as 1st level navigation.
You have to define an entry point in a role and the area is the 2nd level entry.
