Adding Top-level menu items
Overview
This shows you how to add a new Page or Signposting Page to your top-level menu for your website.
Advice
Whilst there is no limit to adding new menu items,
it is strongly advised to keep the number of links at the top-level menu as low as possible.
Top menus can get overwhelming to the visitor, and whilst you may think you're making things easier to see, you're actually hiding content in a big list.
Before adding a new top-level menu, consider:
- Adding a link to the "Popular Links" section. This highlights pages in the Search and Footer.
- Adding a link to the "Quick Links" section. This puts the page link on the homepage, making it easy to find.
Adding a new Top-level menu link
To add a new link:
- Log into your website admin panel
- Go to 'General'
- Scroll down to the "Services and Information Links" section
- Click "Add Links"
- Click "Select Link"
- Choose an existing page then click "Add Link"
- Click Update on the General page
Reordering Top-level menu links
