|
Your BPD website features two types of menus: - the navigation menu - for products and categories
|
, and - the section menu - for content
Whilst a standard website will generally only ever 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 |
, but you may also have others in use elsewhere across your website. Our newly-updated We've recently updated our Section Menu Editor in the CMS makes , so creating and editing your content menus just became much simpler.
- In the CMS, select Navigation → Section Menu Editor.
- Click Create New Menu.
- Give your menu a description / label.
- Save.
- Add Item to Menu.
- Give the new item a label and select the type of menu item you wish to add - page, product, category or link.
