This doesn't sound like default behavior.  Do you have any idea what version of DNN this is running?  If it's not a current version, are you able to upgrade?  That's always going to be something that is suggested first. "Fixing" an issue in an older version of DNN isn't generally possible, unless it's a configuration or third-party extension issue.  

If I understood correctly, you want to have an option in your menu that doesn't have a link, then you need to mark "disable this page" in the page properties at "advanced -> more" if you don't see this option that's because you DNN version it's old and you should upgrade to the latest version.

If you want to redirect to another page you have to define which one.

If you want a (parent) menu not to be clickable or that opens only the submenu when clicked (which makes very much sense, esp. for mobile devices, because these do not have a "hover" event) you have to disable the page as described by Marco above.

Happy DNNing!

I did exactly what Marco said. I disabled the page in Settings > Advanced.

After this deactivation. When I click on the page, nothing happens, but the current page I'm browsing updates automatically.

Look at the video I recorded of the screen: I deactivated the "Services" page and saved it. Later I navigate to the "Courses" page and when I click on the "Services" page, the page where I have courses updates automatically.

I'm using the version below:

• DNN PLATFORM v. 09.10.02 (0)
• LATEST VERSION v. 09.13.02
• .NET FRAMEWORK 4.8

Look in the page settings for both settings.  When looking at the page settings, go to <code>Advanced</code> > <code>SEO</code>. Look at the URLs each page is responding to.  I'm guessing that one of them is responding to a URL you're not expecting.  🤔 

Also, it'll be nice to try to clear cache and restart the application; also at the server level, try to restart the application pool; at last, if you're using Cloudflare or any other CDN, make sure you "purge everything"; then, try it again.

In Advanced > S.E.O, I don't have any URL redirecting. should it include any?

The behaviour may depend on the menu system/template used. Is this happening on the default theme?

Hmmm... Usually, there's at least one entry there, but it's not necessarily the root cause, yet.  Have you checked your theme as Daniel suggested as well? Does the page name on the first page settings tab match the URL you expect?
