Excuse Me: Can I Get a WordPress Menu?

Can I Get a WordPress MenuWe all use them, menus in our navigation bar, whether it’s for categories, pages, or a mix of both.

Sometimes our themes even allow us two navigation bars.

And then there is the sidebar, with its nice little custom menus.

So how do we use the menu feature? Back a couple of versions ago, WordPress added menus under your appearance menu.

They actually got the idea from Woothemes. Gone were the days of creating your menu using the “Page Attributes.”

But at first not every theme supported this feature, and unfortunately I still find a few that don’t. Bummer.

If you are new to WordPress, or even have been working with it for a while, chances are you might have overlooked this option.

And maybe your theme allows more than one navigation bar but for the life of you, how do you get the second one set up?

Let’s take a quick look at the menus feature.
