I did select NAVT too. I want to use it for blocks of external links. With the default “Links” module all categories are displayed below eachother. I do not want that. I want to have one block of external links, then something else, then another block with external links. NAVT can do this. BUT: it is not working properly. When I add another list sometimes one of the other lists disappear.
So my experiences with NAVT are not that positive.
I am also interested in alternatives.
