How to Edit Navigation Bar in WordPress Elementor

When you want to create a website that will sell well, then you will want to have a good user interface and this includes the navigation menu. Without an easy-to-use menu, the visitors to your website will not be able to find their way around your website and locate the services and products that they would like.

If users get frustrated by the lack of ability to find what they want they will often leave the website, and only 30% of your website visitors will ever come back.

It is important to consider the options that are available to you. The first is the default menu editor. It is simple and it certainly gets the job done. However, that doesn’t mean that this is the optimal option. There are certainly other options. There are some menu plugins that you can install on your website.

Another option is to use the Elementor navigational widget. This widget is fairly easy to use and it allows you to build a navigational system that will please your audience.

So here are the steps for creating a menu with Elementor.

The first thing that you want to do is to log into the backend of your WordPress website. Then you can go to ‘Appearance’ and then ‘Menus’. You can find this on the left sidebar. Look for the Menu Name option and then enter a new name. And then click on the big blue button to create it.

Now you need to choose what options users can click by using what is on the dropdowns with pages, posts, custom links, and categories. All you need to do is click on the checkbox that is next to any page you would like to and then click on the ‘Add to Menu’. Then all the items should be added to the menu.

You can also add a few details by clicking on the arrow next to each element on the Menu structure. Some of the elements you can add include:

Navigation Label – Display the title of the link.
Title Attribute – Text that appears on the mouse hover over the menu item.
Open Link in New Window – Generally leave this off.
CSS Classes – Add a little padding, make the text bold, or do something else.
Link Relationship – If linking to a third party or not.

Now you can sort out the structure, making certain items as submenu items and more. This is a simple drag-and-drop operation.

Then you can publish the menu, and ensure that there is a location for the menu.
