  • Designing the Member Menu
The Member Menu appears on every tab of the site's Members Area, allowing members to navigate their account with ease. You can decide which tabs appear on the menu and control its layout and design.

You can quicky access and edit the different tabs that make up your Members Area right from the editor. 
Use the floating dropdown menu to quickly switch between tabs. You can then manage and edit the settings for each tab.

Clicking on tab names in the Manage and Navigate panel also takes you to see the content. From this panel, you can control which tabs appear on the Member Menu, as well as reorder and rename them.

The dropdown will appear at the top of your editor when viewing your Members Area. If you don't see it right away, just scroll down a little. You can click and drag the menu to move it wherever you like.
