How do I get a link to appear in the menu just like content?

I have top level folders and these appear nicely in the automatically generated menus.

I would have thought that if I had put a link (to a virtual url) at the same level in the content tree then this also should appear in the menu.

But it doesn't. All things are possible and I dare say I could delve into the auto menu generation mechanism and find out how it works but I wonder if there is an easy way.

Well, you could check out the templates (flat_top.tpl and flat_left.tpl, I believe). Shouldn't be very hard to get it to fetch/display link objects as well.

nigel,
go into your menu.ini.append.php within the siteaccess being used ( settings/siteaccess/<yourSiteAccess> or in settings/override if you want to make this global ) and add an entry for the appropriate menu like so...
LeftIdentifierList[]=link

or

TopIdentifierList[]=link
