Database design for Magazine website with flexible horizontal menus

Question

I need to design a CMS based website using asp.net web form (c#) and MS SQL Server as backend database for a magazine website which will have weekly issues.

Sample Data

MagazinePages Table
PageID  PageName    LangID  PagePositionNo  PageURL     PageInheritance //PageID

11          SpanishHome 2         10        Default.aspx        0
12          SpanisAboutUs 2       20        Page.aspx   0
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Magazine
MagazineID  MagazineIssueCode   LangID  MagazineTitle   MagazineLiveIssue(CurrentIssue)
1       1           1   Mag Title       0
2       2           1   Mag Title       1
3       1           2   SpanisgMag Title    0
4       2           2   Mag Title       1
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

News Table
NewsID  NewsTitle   NewsCatID   MagazineID  Language    
1   News one    100     1       1
2   News two    100     1       1
3   news three  200     1       1
4   News four   300     1       1
5   News Five   100     2       1
6   News Six    300     2       1
7   News seven  200     2       2

Problem with above approach is that I can create sub menus only if all the records are in MagazinePages based on above example I can create sub menus for “About Us” & Multimedia how can I design my database so that I can pull data from different table such as news by category (Politics, Culture...) & Issue from Magazine Table (Issue 101, Issue 102, Issue 103....)

I am planning to use ASP Menu control for this which may not be very flexible, since I will have over 100 issue of magazine how or which multi column menu I can use with asp.net

My database may have many flows, I would appreciate help in this regard so that I can use this database for this CMS system . Please feel free to ask question if any regarding this.

Added: If I need to pull all the menu name from MagazinePages Table then it is easy but I have been asked to have a menu structure as shown in the example. Problem with this is I can generate menus for AboutUs & Multimedia from MagazinePages Table but I don't have any pages like Politics, Economic, ... Issue 101, 102, 103.. in this Table as that information is stored in different table like News Category in News Table & Issue in Magazine table. I would rather change my table design & make it flexible to read menu information from separate table but I am not sure how

News Table is not show in this Schema.

What I have done is that I have created ps_Pages Table for CMS Pages like, Home, Aboutus, Contact, MediaCentre .....

I store Pages related to Magazine (Which actually are article with different category or tags like culture, politics, sports, people ...) in art_Article table

Answer 1

Why not have a single page deal with the content?

Just call Page.aspx?Issue=4&Page=4

Then in your code you know it's the 4th Issue and they want Page 4, then you can have code in the Page.aspx (.vb or .cs) which translates that and then decides on the layout.

So E.g.

Page.aspx?Issue=4&Style=Article&Content=5

So in the code you could then go, Okay it's issue 4 get the database entries for Issue 4, okay they want Content ID 5 from Issue 4, then put in the style of an Article.

This means you don't have to add extra pages into the database type you can simply just add content as you wish and the item which generates the URLs to access the content just need to show all the content.
