Updating your website menu

Menu's can be displayed differently depending on your desired choice. Two examples listed below; 

Standard Menu 

Hamburger menu (yes, it's a real thing!) with 3 horizontal lines like this:

Both can be edited by going to Menus > Main Menu

MAIN MENUS AND SUB MENUS

In this article we will refer to main menus and sub menus.

Main Menu - This is the top level menu such as Home, Visiting etc. 
Sub menu - A sub menu sits below a main menu 

You can also have sub sub menus however we do not advise this for best practice as you could potentially be hiding important content from the visitor. 

ADDING A NEW MENU ITEM

There are two ways of adding a menu:

1. Click on ADD MENU ITEM, this can be found in the top right-hand corner.

Give your menu a name. This will appear on the actual menu. Try not to make it too long but also make it obvious for visitors. Short and sweet is always recommended. 

Once you have created your menu, you will then need to select where you want to link it to from the drop down.

MOVING MENU ITEMS

You can easily move menu items by simply dragging and dropping. You can move them from one sub menu to another and also convert a sub menu to a main menu and vice versa.

Head back to your list of menu items Menus > Main Menu

1. Place your mouse over the cross to the left of the menu item. You cursor will change from a pointer to a cross as well.

2. Hold down your left mouse button and simply drag the menu item to it's new location. You may have to use some finger gymnastics if your screen needs to scroll up or down.

3. Let go when it's where you want it.

That's it, done! Just refresh your browser and it's now moved.

DELETE A MENU ITEM

This one is easy. Just hover over the downward facing arrow next to the 'Add Sub Menu Item' button and choose delete. This is just a menu item, no content will be deleted.
