If my end-user decides to add a page to his site, will the menus and menu states be adjusted automatically? I want him to be able to add a page easily, but I don’t want to have to hand code the CSS every time a page is added.

I’m especially concerned that the current/active state work automatically—so that when somebody visits a page the nav bar is highlighted (or however I designate that style). Most of the simple CMSs (Wordpress etc.) will do this automatically. I consider hand coding menus a royal pain!

Hey Alohashirt,

As long as you are using tags to generate menus, they will display newly added menu items by end-users. Check out this page list tag:

The page list tag automatically adds a class to the current page as well.

In addition, one of the blocks in MojoBlocks is a sub pages block which just gives a little more flexibility when needing so show sub page menus.

So in short, yes - you can definitely have dynamic menus with MojoMotor. No hand-coding needed!
