How to create a Mega Menu (full customizable dropdown)
Create a new Block
Blocks can be titled anything, but we'll use the next once as an example and prefix them with CML (custom menu layout).
- Location: Dashboard → Blocks → Add new
- Create a new empty block 'CML - Mega 1'
Enable the custom menu layout
- Location: Appearance → Menus
- Add a menu item or use an already existing one (you don't need to add a UX Block as the menu item itself, as a UX Block link will navigate to the block, you likely want to use f.ex. a custom link menu item).
- Enable a 'Design' and select the block you just created for the purpose of the custom menu layout.
- Save the menu.
If this menu is also assigned to the menu location 'Main Menu - Mobile', then child menu items are visible in the sidebar navigation.
It is possible to separate main navigation and sidebar (mobile) navigation if you so require.
