4 min read
Your site menu is the main menu on your website and allows your visitors to navigate around it. Add a variety of items to the menu to ensure your visitors can get to all the information and content that they need.
In this article, learn more about:
Adding new pages to your site menu
When you add a new page, a new item is automatically added to your site menu and has the name of the page. You can add a new page to your site from the Pages & Menu panel.
To add a new page to your menu:
- Go to your editor.
- Click Pages & Menu on the left side of the editor.
- Click Add Page at the top of the panel.
- Choose the page template from the options or click + Blank Page.
- Enter the new page name.
- Click Done.
Tip:
If you rename the page in the Pages & Menu panel, it automatically updates on your site menu. It also goes the other way around – if you rename the item on your site menu, it automatically updates the Pages & Menu panel.
Adding a link to your site menu
Add any link you need to your site menu, whether it's an external URL, an email address, a document, etc. The link looks like a regular item on your site menu, but when your visitors click it, the link destination opens. Choose whether it opens in the same window or a new window.
To add a link to your menu:
- Go to your editor.
- Click Pages & Menu on the left side of the editor.
- Click the Add Menu Item at the bottom of the panel.
- Click Link.
- Select the link type and enter the link details.
- Choose whether your link opens in a new window or the current window.
- Click Done.
- Enter the name for the menu item.
- Click Done.
Adding a subpage dropdown menu
Create a dropdown subpage menu within your site navigation to keep it organized and user-friendly. Choose between two options: turn an existing menu item into a clickable title for your dropdown, or add a new non-clickable menu title to organize your subitems beneath it.
To add a dropdown menu:
- Go to your editor.
- Click Pages & Menu on the left side of the editor.
- Choose what to do next:
Clickable title (i.e. menu item)
Non-clickable title
Adding a page section to your site menu
Sections are a great way to divide and organize your page content. Link to sections from your site menu so your visitors can be directed there with one click.
To add a section to your site menu:
- Go to your editor.
- Click Pages & Menu on the left side of the editor.
- Click Add Menu Item at the bottom of the pages panel.
- Click Section.
- Select the page the section is on from the dropdown menu.
- Select the section from the dropdown menu.
- Click Done.
