Configure the Navigation Menu

Previous Step

Configure the About page

After setting up the home, news, and about pages, update the navigation menu to reflect these changes. By default, the menu includes a "content" item that does not match your current site structure, and it does not include the About page.

Update the Menu in Experience Manager

  1. In Bloomreach Content, open the Experience manager and select your website.

  2. Click Edit menu. If you do not see this button, click the Show components icon (second from the right in the top right corner).
