Add a Folder to your website navigation

‘Folder’ lets you create a collection of your pages as a listing page or as a dropdown.

Think of a Folder as a container that holds multiple menu items and shows them in a visual layout (grids, slideshows, vertical or horizontal scrolls, and many more layouts).

See a demo Folder.

Any kind of menu item (excluding a Folder) can be directly added to a Folder. You can add multiple galleries and pages.

For a nested structure, you can also add one Folder to another with the help of the link menu item. See how.

Add Pages to Folder

The content cannot be added directly to folders as pages. Whereas you can add any menu items/pages to a folder and specify whether you want to show the menu items in a listing page or in a dropdown.

You can move existing menu items into a folder by dragging and releasing them.

 

Add any page (excluding another Folder) to a Folder by clicking on the +Add Page button under the folder.

Viewing a Folder

When anyone views a folder, the folder listing page is loaded, and displayed. If there are no menu items added to it, a blank page will be shown.


Presenting a Folder

You can choose to show a folder either as a dropdown or a listing page on your website.
Also Check: Show Folder as a dropdown or listing page.


Folder Background

The folder background is inherited from the website background set in the Design section. See how to change this background.

Note

When you delete a folder, all the menu items/pages under it will also get deleted. However, you can restore any pages within 90 days of deleting them.
