Configuring Your Mega Menu Dropdown:

Important: You must configure the 'Setup Mega Menu' section so that you can specify which categories in your navigation menu will display the Mega Menu Drop down. By default the menu items will not display the mega menu drop down.��

�

�

2. You'll notice after you clicked 'add' it provided 'item 1' underneath it. Click on Item 1 and it will allow you to specify which category we want to have a Mega Menu drop down by typing in the name of the category in the 'Menu Item Name to apply mega menu to' field. Make sure to include any punctuation marks and to use exact spelling.��


�

3. Repeat this process for every category that you would like to provide the Mega Menu drop down. You can do all of your category menu items or just certain category menu items.�


4. Once you have finished with all of your customizations and adding the Mega Menu items, click the 'Done' button at the bottom of the block settings menu.�

5. If you would like to delete your original menu block, which is called the 'Additional Nav Menu', you can do so by clicking on the original navigation menu within Site Designer, which will open the Block settings for the Additional Nav Menu, and then click the 'trash' can button in the Block Menu Settings to remove it.
