Menus ​

Menus is where you build the navigation links that shoppers use to move around your storefront — Home, Shop All, a collection, and so on. Open Menus from your dashboard's menu to see the ones in your shop.

The Menus list, showing Main menu with its four items — Home, Shop All, Summer Collection
and EID Special — and its Active status.

Search and filters ​

This list works the same way as every other list in your dashboard. Working with lists explains searching, filtering, sorting, columns and views in full.

The search box finds a menu by its title or its handle.

Menus only has one filter, Status — filter the list by Active or Inactive.

Creating a menu ​

Press Create menu. Enter a Title for it. The menu items come next.

Every menu has a Handle

Below the Title there is a Handle, made from the title. It is how Biponix connects this menu to your theme.

Adding items ​

Press Add menu item, then choose a Type:

TypeWhat it needs
URLA Label and a URL — type in a web address, to your storefront or elsewhere.
CategoryA Label and a Target — pick a category.
ProductA Label and a Target — pick a product.
CollectionA Label and a Target — pick a collection.
PageA Label and a Target — pick one of your Pages.
All productsJust a Label. Links to your storefront's products page.
All categoriesJust a Label. Links to your storefront's categories page.
GroupJust a Label. A dropdown sub menu to show whatever items you nest inside it.

Picking a Target fills the Label with that item's name automatically.

A menu item open for editing, with its Type set to Category, its Label field, and a Target
field to pick the category.

Nesting and reordering ​

Press Add nested item to put items inside another one. On your storefront, hovering or tapping the top-level item opens the nested ones. You can nest up to three levels deep.

Drag an item by its handle (⋮⋮) to reorder it, at any level.

Press Save when you are done.

Putting a menu on your storefront ​

Open your theme in the Theme editor, select the header's navigation section, and pick your menu from its Menu setting. Currently this is the only place where you can display your menu.

Removing a menu ​

Press the row's action button, then Delete.

Deleting an active menu takes it off your storefront immediately

If the menu is Active, deleting it removes it from your storefront right away, and this cannot be undone.
