Answers.Text: Zack - I'm also not having much luck with this. I have implemented it and what seems to be happening is that when I click on the menu items it updates the Title but where the content should go, it is just empty, or height: 0 ? I'm wondering If I've set my template up wrong. do i add: {% extends (craft.request.isAjax and not craft.request.isLivePreview) ? "_ajax-layout" : "_layout" %}
   to the _ajax-layout.twig file?

  So I just went through my article step-by-step and I indeed missed adding the new content into `$main`. I think there may have been a versioning mistake in the article's code as I definitely tested it.
  
  Anyways, here's an updated `loadPage` function for you. Which I will be adding to the article tomorrow. I've added a few extra things to ensure that there's no content (like the footer if you include it in `layout.twig`) jumping when the content switches out, so feel free to modify that.
  
  ```
  loadPage = function(href) {
  
    $main.wrapInner('<div class="new-results-div" />');
  
    /* ----- Get height of new container inside results container and to ensure the footer doesn't jump up -----  */
    var newResultsHeight = $('.new-results-div').outerHeight();
    $main.height(newResultsHeight);
  
    $('.js-ajax-wrapper').velocity('transition.fadeOut', {
      /* ----- Upon completion of animating out content put user at top of page. ----- */
      complete: function(){
        $('html').velocity("scroll", {
          duration: 0,
          easing: "ease",
          mobileHA: false
        });
      }
    });
  
    $.ajax({
      type: 'POST',
      url: href,
      data: {},
      success: function(result){
        /* ----- HERE'S WERE THE CONTENT GET'S ADDED ----- */
        $main.html(result);
  
        /* ----- Wrap content in div so we can get it's height ----- */
        $main.wrapInner('<div class="new-results-div" />');
  
        /* ----- Get height of new container inside results container and set $main to it so there's no content jumpage -----  */
        var newResultsHeight = $('.new-results-div').outerHeight();
        $main.height(newResultsHeight);
  
        /* ----- Bring In New Content ----- */
        $('.js-main .js-ajax-wrapper').velocity('transition.fadeIn', {
          visibility: 'visible',
          complete: function() {
            /* ----- Removes the temp height from $main ----- */
            $main.css('height', '');
            ajaxLoad();
          }
        });
      },
      error: function(){
        console.log("error.");
        location.reload();
      }
    });
  
  };
  
  ```
