ADVANCED MEGA MENU

How to configure the Advanced Mega Menu for your header desktop navigation

maka-icon_feature-adv-mega-menu

ADV. MEGA MENU

Create a one-of-a-kind UI for your website using the Advanced Mega Menu to customize the UX for your desktop menu.

mega-menu-power-theme

Page Speed Impact

LOW

The mega menu itself will not have a significant impact on page speed.

MEDIUM

Additional impact on desktop if images are added to the rich-text editor without being properly sized and compressed.

An image background can also impact page performance.

TIPS

Convert images to WebP where possible to meet criteria to serve images in next-gen format.

To reduce image file sizes without losing quality, use TinyPNG to compress your images (JPG, PNG, WebP).

Vector images (SVG) also help keep file sizes to a minimum and can be used for graphics like logos and icons.

FAQ

I'm already using the Mega Menu, how do I convert to the Advanced Mega Menu?

Once configured, the Advanced Mega Menu will replace the contents for each top-level navigation of the existing Mega Menu

Setup Instructions

 

How to Set Up the Advanced Mega Menu

POWER Header → Global Content

The Advanced Mega Menu is configured from the Global Header and has to be set up independently for each page type where you would like to use this feature.

global-content-header-types

Publishing the Global Header with Advanced Mega Menu

When you're ready to publish the Global Header, you'll click the orange Publish to X assets button in the upper right corner. 

publish-assets-hubspot-header

If you used the "Show Permanently" option while building your Advanced Mega Menu, please make sure you have unchecked the box prior to publishing. Once published all changes are visible on all live pages with the corresponding header.

You can continue to build your Advanced Mega Menu without publishing by clicking Back to page editor and leaving with unpublished changes.

back-to-page-editor

Setting up Navigation for the Advanced Mega Menu

Essentially, the Advanced Mega Menu allows you to replace the child menu items for your top-level navigation.

To ensure your menu works on tablet and mobile, we suggest building the navigation for your Advanced Mega Menu to contain the necessary top-level items and adding child items as needed for tablet and mobile.

Once activated, the Mega Menu(s) will replace the child items for desktop so that you would see the top-level items and the corresponding Mega Menu. 

Alternatively, you can create the top-level menu to be used with your Advanced Mega Menu on desktop and then create a mobile-specific menu that can be added to the header settings.

You will also need to set up individual menus to be used within the columns if you are using the Menu content type.

Outlining Your Advanced Mega Menu

The layout of the mega menu is based on a 12-column grid, this allows for the most flexible layout to work with a variety of content elements and design layouts.

If you're not familiar with a 12-column grid in design, imagine 12 columns in a spreadsheet and you get to pick how many of those columns should be included in each of the menu columns.

mega-menu-column-layouts

For example, if you want your menu to have 2 columns, you could divide the 12 columns out to have 3 and 9, 4 and 8, 6 and 6, 8 and 4, or 9 and 3. These numbers form the width of the two columns where your content will go.

Within each column, you can create groups of content within a wrapper. The wrapper allows you to apply style and layout settings to unify the contents and create rows within the columns. You can have multiple contents in a wrapper, and multiple wrappers in a column.

Components of the Advanced Mega Menu

Use these links to jump to the corresponding configuration settings below.

Mega Menu(s) = overall structure that will replace the existing dropdown for top-level navigation; 1 per top-level menu item

Column(s) = the main structure of the Mega Menu; 1 to 6 columns per mega menu

Wrapper(s) = a grouping of content within a column; at least 1 per column

Content(s) = choice of content type to be added to the wrapper; at least 1 per wrapper

Sub Area Top = an area above the mega menu for additional content, can be one to three columns, each with one content item; 1 per mega menu

Sub Area Bottom = an area below the mega menu for additional content, can be one to three columns, each with one content item; 1 per mega menu

Styling the Advanced Mega Menu

Use these links to jump to the corresponding style settings below.

Mega Menu Style = overall style of the Mega Menu, the background here is the furthest layer back

Column Style = individual style settings per column, this layer is on top of the Mega Menu

Wrapper Style = style settings for individual wrappers within a column, this layer is on top of the Column and all content within the wrapper sits on top of the wrapper styles

Sub Area Top Style = independent of the Mega Menu Style settings, on the same layer as the Mega Menu background

Sub Area Bottom Style =independent of the Mega Menu Style settings, on the same layer as the Mega Menu background

Module Options

These settings are available for each Header Type. We recommend opening a second browser window once you have the PAGE Header configured to make it easier to configure the Advanced Mega Menu for any additional page types needed.

Activating the Advanced Mega Menu

POWER Header → Advanced Mega Menu

Advanced Mega Menu is for Desktop only, all other devices will use the existing menu as configured.

activate-advanced-mega-menu

POWER Header → Layout → Choose Layout

If you are using the Advanced Mega Menu the Layout needs to be set to Dropdown or one of the Mega Menu choices, it is not compatible with the Burger, Burger Only, or Landing Page.

menu-layout

POWER Header → Advanced Mega Menu → Mega Menu(s)

Build a Mega Menu for any of the Menu Items in your Main Navigation Menu (a top-level menu with 4 items can have up to 4 mega menus. If no mega menu is built for an item, the existing menu structure remains).

Click Add one to get started. This will open the settings for your first Mega Menu.

POWER Header → Advanced Mega Menu → Layout

The settings will open to the Layout section first, this is where you will define the basic structure of your Mega Menu.

adv-mega-menu-layout

POWER Header → Advanced Mega Menu → Layout → Width of Mega Menu

Choice of Content Width, Full Width, or Custom Width.

If set to full width, the mega menu spans the whole window width. If set to content width, the mega menu spans only the content area width.

POWER Header → Advanced Mega Menu → Layout → Width of Mega Menu → Custom Width

Choice of Content Width or Full Width.

If set to custom width, you can determine the width of the mega menu in pixels. We recommend building your Mega Menu first using Content Width and returning here to set a Custom Width if you want the Mega Menu to be narrower.

mega-menu-custom-width

POWER Header → Advanced Mega Menu → Layout → Width of Content

If set to full width, the mega menu content spans the whole mega menu container. If set to content width, the mega menu content spans only the content area width.

POWER Header → Advanced Mega Menu → Layout → Column Layouts & Widths

The column layout is based on a 12-column grid. The numbers in brackets are the column widths based on the total being 12.

Column Layouts & Widths available include:

  • 1 Column - [ 12 ] 
  • 2 Columns - [ 3 | 9 ] 
  • 2 Columns - [ 4 | 8 ] 
  • 2 Columns - [ 6 | 6 ]
  • 2 Columns - [ 8 | 4 ]
  • 2 Columns - [ 9 | 3 ]
  • 3 Columns - [ 2 | 2 | 8 ]
  • 3 Columns - [ 2 | 8 | 2 ]
  • 3 Columns - [ 8 | 2 | 2 ]
  • 3 Columns - [ 3 | 3 | 6 ]
  • 3 Columns - [ 3 | 6 | 3 ]
  • 3 Columns - [ 6 | 3 | 3 ]
  • 3 Columns - [ 4 | 4 | 4 ]
  • 4 Columns - [ 2 | 2 | 2 | 6 ]
  • 4 Columns - [ 2 | 2 | 4 | 4 ]
  • 4 Columns - [ 2 | 4 | 2 | 4 ]

  • 5 Columns - [ 3 | 3 | 2 | 2 | 2 ]
  • 5 Columns - [ 4 | 2 | 2 | 2 | 2 ]
  • 6 Columns - [ 2 | 2 | 2 | 2 | 2 | 2 ]

POWER Header → Advanced Mega Menu → Layout → Compensate Outer Column Padding

Choice of None, Left, Right, or Left & Right.

This makes the most sense for layout = full-width and content = content width. If the column does not have a background style, this setting allows for it to better align the content to the other content of the page.

We recommend building the mega menu columns first and coming back to see if this setting is needed.

Adding a Mega Menu

POWER Header → Advanced Mega Menu → Mega Menu(s)

After you select the number of columns, you'll need to scroll to the top of the settings to start on some of the basics before you start building.

mega-menu-setup-target

POWER Header → Advanced Mega Menu → Mega Menu(s) → Internal Name

This is where you can name each of your mega menus, we suggest naming it after the top-level menu item you are building for so you can keep track of them easily.

If left blank, your mega menu will be named by default.

mega-menu-naming

POWER Header → Advanced Mega Menu → Mega Menu(s) → Target

Choose the menu item from the Main Navigation Menu that should be targeted for this mega menu (for a top-level menu with 4 items, you would enter 2 here to target the second item).

This menu has 3 top-level items, the numbering for the targets starts on the left.

top-level-menu-targets

A separate Mega Menu would need to be built for each top-level item, otherwise, the existing menu items will remain as configured in the Navigation settings.

POWER Header → Advanced Mega Menu → Mega Menu(s) → Show Permanently

Check this setting to force the mega menu to display in the preview. This is for editing purposes so you can see the menu without having to hover over the menu.

With this option activated, the preview viewport should be larger than 992px in width to be able to see the mega menu. Otherwise, the viewport should be larger than the content width (Default: 1200px). The latter applies to the live site as well.

POWER Header → Advanced Mega Menu → Mega Menu(s)

Below the Show Permanently setting are the settings where you'll start building the structure for your mega menu.

We recommend building out the structure and contents and then going back to review the style and alignment options to refine the design and layout.

mega-menu-column-structure-settings

In addition to the main column layout, you have the option to configure a Sub Area on Top and a Sub Area on Bottom; these settings essentially allow you to add an additional row of content above and/or below the footer.

It is important to note that these sub-areas have different settings and some limitations compared to the main columns; this is not how you would create rows within the columns, which is done by adding more than one wrapper to a column.
