coreFORCE - Website: Managing Menu Items


Menu items refer to the clickable links that customers will utilize in your navigation bar.

Some default examples include "About us" and "Contact us" these can be used as great ways to help either funnel your customers to more narrowed pages or to help them find exactly what they're looking for. Menu items can even help customers be linked to external sites

  1. Description


This description will be the name used to help filter out options on our backend. For example one could utilize "CHRISTMAS - Buy Now" as a different link than a "Buy Now" button but have those two share similar link titles so the customer would never know the difference at first glance.

  1. For administrators


This option allows for items to be visible only to administrator users. This can be utilized to enable options on the home page for quick access to work in progress pages or even backend routes

  1. Sort Order


Sort Order is a simple field that allows the menu item to show up in an order other than alphabetically. Sort order works from Lowest > Highest so 1 comes before 100
