Your BPD website features two types of menus:

  • the navigation menu - for products and categories
  • the section menu menus - for content

Whilst a standard website will generally only have one main product menu, you might have several content menus appearing in various places.Your site's footer probably has at least one section menu on it already.

 

...

Once the feature is enabled, you'll see a new item 'Navigation' option in your CMS menu: Navigation.  Here's where both the classic menu editor and new Section Menu editor Editor now live (previouslyif the feature is not enabled, the menu editor sat will still sit under the 'Advanced Content' menu).

...

  1. In the CMS, select Navigation → Section Menu Editor.

  2. Click Create New Menu.

  3. Give your menu a description / label.
  4. Save.

  5. Add Item to Menu.
