Overview
You can customise both the header (top of every page) and footer (bottom of every page) menus of your website. This article covers editing existing menu items, reordering them, and removing what you no longer want.
To add a new page or link to a menu, see how to add a new page to the menu of your website.
Before you start
You need the Can edit the website permission to manage menus.
The same menu item can live on both the header and the footer if you want to give it extra visibility — they're configured as two separate menus, so you can add the item to each.
Menu item titles are translatable per language. Update the title in each activated language so the link reads correctly for every visitor.
