Creating a Drop-Down Menu

Order does matter here.

Subelements for the second level start with an _and elements of the third level, start with two underscores __ For the correct order, you need to put the grandchildren underneath the children and the children below the parent.

go to LAYOUT > MENU > click on Edit link icon. >click on ‘ADD A NEW ITEM’.

Fill out the fields as explained below:

• Page Name – type the title of the tab exactly as you want it to appear in the menu and add one underscore _ in front of it. The underscore will not be visible in the menu.
• Page URL – Add the link (it can be the link to a static page, a label page or to another website).

This is how it should look like after filling out the fields:

Click “Save Link”.

For showing the sub categories or sub labels or sub pages under a specific menu tab (Parent-link) ( such as Categories etc.), all page titles with underscore “_” should be placed under the specific menu tab .

For example, if I want to show the “The Journals” and “Scripts” labels
under the “Categories” drag and drop them below the Categories tab. (shown as below ).

Elements of the third level, start with two underscores __ For the correct order, you need to put the grandchildren underneath the children and the children below the parent.

2 . Adding static pages as drop-down menu tabs

go to LAYOUT > MENU > click on Edit link icon. >click on ‘ADD A NEW ITEM’.

Click on “Page name” then pages you’ve created and its page url’s will be listed .

Choose the page you want to display on Menu Tab as a child menu item and add one underscore _ in front of it .

Elements of the third level, start with two underscores __ For the correct order, you need to put the grandchildren underneath the children and the children below the parent.

If you have finished adding all the child and grandchild pages under the parent menu tab click the ‘Save’ button .
