    • Location: The designated place in the frontend theme where this menu appears (e.g., header, footer-1).
    • Description: An optional internal note explaining what this menu is for.
    • Active: Check this box to make the menu active on the site.
  4. Click "Save".

Once a menu group is created, you need to add the actual clickable links.

  1. Click on the menu group you want to edit from the list.
  2. At the top right, click the "Menu Items" button to open the link management interface.
  3. Press the "Add Link" button on the opened tree interface.
  4. Select the properties of the link you will add:
    • Label: The text the user will see on the site (e.g., "About Us").

      • Page: You can directly select a static Page (from the Pages module) you created in the system.
      • Category: You can redirect to a specific product, blog, or news category.
      • Custom URL: You can enter a completely different external link or relative path (https://... or /contact).
  5. Drag & Drop: You can easily change the order of menu items by dragging them with your mouse.
  6. Hierarchy (Dropdowns): Create a sub-menu (dropdown) by sliding an item to the right directly below another parent item.
