Navigation and Sub-Navigation Links

Melody Jaimon • January 13, 2023

Add the Navigation Links widget to your site to generate an all-inclusive navigation menu with links to all of your site's pages, or create your own menu with only the most useful links. A well-structured navigation system guides your site visitors and assists them in quickly finding the information they seek.


To include the widget:


  1. Click Widgets in the left panel.
  2. Drag the Navigation Links widget into your website.


See
Add Widgets for more information on how to add widgets to your site.


Navigation can have up to three levels.


See the following video to learn more about the navigation menu and sub-pages:

Content Editor

To contact the content editor, follow these steps:


  1. Click Edit Content by right-clicking it. Choose one of the following:
  2. Site pages. Fill the navigation links' content with site pages, navigation folders, and anchors. This menu will be generated automatically based on the pages of the website. This is a quick method for adding basic navigation to your website. Go to Pages to edit the pages on your site.
  3. Custom links. Create your own menu with customised links. This option gives you flexibility when it comes to adding inner page navigation, footer navigation with only the most useful links, a social accounts menu, and more.
  4. If you choose to create navigation with Custom links, the editor will prompt you to add custom elements to the list of links. Add folders and items to link to external, internal, and anchor pages.
