Visitors can't click on it because it just didn't show up in the top menu bar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many novice WordPress users believe that publishing a new page automatically puts it in the menu. Although this feature can be turned on, it is highly not recommended from a professional point of view (because it leads to chaos and an overcrowded header in no time). You have to build the menu logically by hand. Let\u2019s show you how to get your new site out in just 3 minutes!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step by step: Add and sort items in the menu<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>1. Navigate to Menus settings<\/strong> In the black admin bar on the left, move the mouse to the <strong>Appearance<\/strong> (Appearance), and then click <strong>Menus<\/strong> submenu. <em>[Screenshot location: Highlighted in the left menu bar is the Appearance \/ Menus option]<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>2. Select the menu you want to edit<\/strong> There may be several menus on a website (e.g. main menu in the header and another menu at the bottom of the footer of the GTC). From the \"Select the menu you want to edit\" drop-down list at the top of the page, select the one you want to change (usually <em>Main Menu<\/em>, <em>Main menu<\/em> or <em>Primary Navigation<\/em> name), then press the <strong>Select<\/strong> button. <em>[Screenshot location: The top drop-down list with the Select button]<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>3. Add your new page.<\/strong> On the left side of the screen, you\u2019ll see the \u201cAdd Menu Items\u201d box.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Click on <strong>Pages<\/strong> tab.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you don\u2019t see your new page right away, click on the \u201cShow all\u201d or \u201cSearch\u201d tab.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Check the small box next to your newly created page.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click on <strong>Add to menu<\/strong> button. <em>[Screenshot location: The Pages box on the left, ticked a page and pointing an arrow to the Add button]<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>4. Set the order and submenus (Take and drop)<\/strong> Your new menu item has appeared in the \u201cMenu structure\u201d list on the right side of the screen, at the bottom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Click on it, hold down the mouse and simply <strong>drag it to the right place<\/strong> (above or below).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>To create a submenu:<\/strong> If you want your new page to be a different menu item (e.g. \u201cServices\u201d) <em>under<\/em> open, drag it under the Services, and then <strong>swipe a little to the right<\/strong>. The box jumps inwards and displays the inscription \u201csubmenu item\u201d. <em>[Screenshot location: The menu structure where an item is just dragged to the right to become a submenu]<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>5. Save the menu.<\/strong> When you're done sorting, don't forget to press the blue in the lower right (or upper right) corner <strong>Save Menu<\/strong> button. Without it, your modifications will be lost!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\ud83d\udca1 Pro Tip: How do I add an external link to the menu?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Do you want to add your Facebook page or a partner company's website to the main menu? In the add-on panel on the left, under the Pages, you will find a <strong>Specific references<\/strong> (Custom Links) tab. Here you just need to copy the exact URL of the external website (e.g. <em><a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/search?q=https:\/\/facebook.com\/teoldalad\">https:\/\/facebook.com\/teoldalad<\/a><\/em>), and in the \"Reference text\" field, enter what should appear as the button (e.g. <em>Facebook<\/em>), then you can go to the Add to menu button!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Has nothing changed on the website or does your menu manager look different?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">State-of-the-art, premium websites (made with, for example, full site editing, so-called FSE technology, or custom Bricks Builder headers) can sometimes override the traditional menu manager.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you saved by following the steps above, but the header on your website has not been updated, or the setup interface looks completely different for you, open a ticket in the <strong>peterteszary.com ticket manager<\/strong> interface and I will immediately help you customize your navigation!<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You created the perfect new subpage, pressed the Publish button, and then you update your website, but... you can't find it anywhere.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"slim_seo":{"title":"Meg\u00edrtam az \u00faj oldalt, de hol van? \u2013 A navig\u00e1ci\u00f3s men\u00fc (Fejl\u00e9c) szerkeszt\u00e9se l\u00e9p\u00e9sr\u0151l l\u00e9p\u00e9sre - peterteszary.com","description":"L\u00e9trehoztad a t\u00f6k\u00e9letes \u00faj aloldalt, r\u00e1nyomt\u00e1l a K\u00f6zz\u00e9t\u00e9tel gombra, majd friss\u00edted a weboldaladat, de... sehol sem tal\u00e1lod."},"_slim_seo_primary_term_sgkb-docs-category":586,"_slim_seo_primary_term_sgkb-docs-tag":0,"footnotes":""},"sgkb-docs-category":[586],"sgkb-docs-tag":[],"class_list":["post-5514","sgkb-docs","type-sgkb-docs","status-publish","hentry","sgkb-docs-category-wordpress-alapok-tartalomkezeles"],"meta_box":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/peterteszary.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/sgkb-docs\/5514","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/peterteszary.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/sgkb-docs"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/peterteszary.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/sgkb-docs"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/peterteszary.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/peterteszary.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5514"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/peterteszary.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/sgkb-docs\/5514\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5515,"href":"https:\/\/peterteszary.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/sgkb-docs\/5514\/revisions\/5515"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/peterteszary.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5514"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"sgkb-docs-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/peterteszary.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/sgkb-docs-category?post=5514"},{"taxonomy":"sgkb-docs-tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/peterteszary.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/sgkb-docs-tag?post=5514"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
