Main Menu

Add Menu Link

To avoid duplicate content on your site, you can add a link to the same content from multiple sections. This allows you to reference the content without repetition. Another common use for adding a menu link is when you need a section heading in the main navigation but don't have content for that page. In this case, the link directs visitors to the first child page in that section.

1. Click the Add link button at the top right of the page.
2. Add a Menu link title.
3. Add a Link.
   1. If existing content: Start typing the title of a piece of content to select it. You can also enter an internal path such as /about.
   2. If external URL: Type in the full URL, such as https://www.colorado.edu.
   3. If Homepage: Enter <front> to link to the homepage.
4. Click First Child: When enabled, the menu link will redirect to the first child item.
5. Select a Parent Link. The default is the Main Menu.
6. Click Save.
