How to create and manage menus in WordPress

There are two ways to create and manage menus in WordPress:

1. Using the built-in menu manager.

The built-in menu manager is the easiest way to create and manage menus in WordPress. To use the built-in menu manager, log in to your WordPress dashboard and click on the “Appearance” tab. Then, click on the “Menus” button.

The menu manager will display a list of your current menus. If you don’t have any menus, you can click on the “Create New Menu” button to create a new menu.

Once you have created a new menu, you can add pages, posts, categories, and other items to the menu. You can also set the location of the menu on your website.

2. Using a third-party plugin.

There are a number of third-party plugins that can help you to create and manage menus in WordPress. Some popular plugins include:

  • UberMenu
  • Kadence Blocks
  • Elementor

These plugins offer a variety of features that allow you to create and manage menus in WordPress.

Which method you choose will depend on your individual needs and preferences. If you are not comfortable with HTML or CSS, then using the built-in menu manager is a good option. If you are comfortable with HTML or CSS, then you can use a third-party plugin to create more complex menus.

Here are some additional tips for creating and managing menus:

  • Use descriptive names for your menus. This will help you to identify your menus when you are editing them.
  • Organize your menus logically. This will make it easier for your visitors to find the content they are looking for.
  • Use a consistent design for your menus. This will help to create a cohesive look and feel for your website.
  • Test your menus regularly. Make sure that your menus are working properly and that they are displaying the correct content.
  • Keep your menus up-to-date. Regularly update your menus to add new content and to remove outdated content.
