Mega Menu Zone

If your website uses a Mega Menu (rather than a Navigation Menu), you can edit the content to display around the menu edges here. For example, you may wish to add images to the top of each menu item, links or other content. 

Content editing is available for all four sides (Top, Bottom, Left, Right).  In the example below, we have added an image to the Top zone of the category 'Sports & Outdoors'.
