Creating Your Main and Footer Navigation

Table of Contents

Every author can edit their page title and decide where it should live. In addition, admins with greater menu access should review this page structure holistically, to ensure that the site header and footer navigation follows the platform guidelines. 

If you don't follow the main navigation recommendations, the main navigation will condense into a hamburger menu. These are less accessible than a visible main navigation. To avoid hiding link copy and requiring an additional click, we recommend simplifying where possible, as well as reducing link counts and character counts per link.

 

Example: Main navigation, built correctly to guidelines
