  • Once the Site Logo element appears, click on it and either upload or browse for the desired logo file.
  • Save your changes when you are done.

Setting up the site title and favicon

  • Click on the Browse all templates button.
  • In the templates screen, select Template parts on the left-hand side and then click on the header.

Creating Classic Menu System

To create classic theme menus, navigate to the “Appearance” section and select “Menus.” Once there, you can easily generate menus that will be utilized in conjunction with templates through the Editor.

If you wish to modify the navigation menu within the Editor, follow these steps:

  • Access the “Appearance” section and choose “Editor.”
  • Within the Site Editor, locate the downward arrow near the template name at the top of the screen.
  • Click on the “Browse all templates” button that appears.
  • On the templates screen, select “Template parts” from the left-hand side menu.
  • Choose the “header” option.
  • Locate the Menu placeholder and click on it.
  • From the floating menu, select “Select Menu.”
  • Finally, remember to save the changes you have made.

Creating a Gutenberg Menu

This guide will demonstrate how to create a new menu from scratch by using Gutenberg.

  • To easily identify the pages you want to include in your menu, it’s recommended to open your Pages in a separate tab. Unfortunately, the new menu system does not provide a comprehensive list of all your pages. However, if you already know which pages you want to add, you can skip this step.
  • Now, return to the menu on the editing site and select “Start Empty” to begin with a blank menu. To create your first menu item, click the plus sign in the menu to add a block. The primary blocks to start with, are your pages . Simply type the name of the page you wish to add into the search bar, and a link to that specific page will be added.
  • To include additional menu items, access the List View. Here, you will find a Navigation block along with your Page block. By selecting the Page block and pressing the “Return” key on your keyboard, you will create a placeholder for your next Custom Link.
  • You can continue adding page links by pressing “Return,” searching for the page title, and selecting it from the dropdown menu.
  • To create a dropdown menu, you can incorporate Post Categories under a menu item. Simply click on the desired menu item, and you will notice a small icon called “Add submenu” in the floating toolbar at the top of the page. This option will automatically insert a submenu placeholder, allowing you to add blocks as you did previously. To search for specific page category links, you can type directly into the toolbar. Additionally, you can use the plus sign to add more links, resulting in multiple dropdown menus for each menu item.
  • To include a search box or search icon in your menu, follow these steps: 1) Select the menu item in your menu where you want the search box/icon to be placed. 2) Press the “Return” key on your keyboard, which will create a designated space for your item. 3) A drop-down menu of links to add will appear. 4) Scroll through the options and click on the “Search” item located at the bottom of the list.

Footer menus

  • To modify the footer of your page template using the Site Editor, click on the down arrow near the template name at the top of the screen.
  • Click on the Browse all templates button.
  • In the templates screen, select Template parts on the left-hand side and then click on the footer.
  • Click on the menu that you wish to replace.
  • Select the previously created menu.
  • Save changes when done.
