Building Your Site Navigation and Menus

Last updated Nov 7, 2026

Navigation Menus in VoVo

A clear navigation structure is critical for user experience and SEO. VoVo provides a visual menu builder where you can create and organise menus for your header, footer, and sidebar without touching any code.

Accessing the Menu Builder

  1. Go to Website > Navigation in the sidebar.
  2. You will see existing menus - typically Primary Navigation (header) and Footer Links.
  3. Click a menu to edit it, or click New Menu to create one.

Adding Menu Items

In the menu editor, click Add Item to insert a new link. You can link to any page on your site, a blog category or individual post, an external URL, or a section anchor on the same page.

Creating Dropdown Menus

Drag a menu item slightly to the right underneath another item to make it a child (dropdown) item. You can nest up to two levels deep. The parent item becomes a dropdown trigger automatically. Reorder items by dragging and dropping them in the list.

Mobile Navigation

Your primary navigation automatically collapses into a mobile-friendly hamburger menu on small screens. The theme handles this responsively - no extra configuration is needed. You can preview the mobile menu from the Theme Customiser.

Assigning Menus to Locations

Each menu can be assigned to a location - for example, assign your main menu to the Header Primary location and a shorter links list to Footer Navigation. Go to Website > Menu Locations to manage these assignments.
