Most Joomla templates provide the ability to use main menu on the top menu position. Usually this position is right after the header and before content. Lets create the menu items that point right to our newly created content pages.

  • In admin go to Menus -> Main menu
  • Select New from the top left corner
  • Click on “Menu item type” to define the type of this menu item. Select Article ->Single article from the popup.
  • Click “Select article” to define the article this menu item points at. Select one of your articles you created from the popup list.
  • Type the menu item title (will appear on the page, should be short, e.g. Welcome!)
  • Alias field can be left empty to let Joomla create the alias based on your written menu item title.

 

  • Menu location should be “Main menu” and status should be “Published”

  • The rest of the settings can be left as they are on the right side by default.

  • Click on Save & Close and create a menu item for each of the articles (pages) you need.

Now you have a menu, it only needs to be positioned. In previous chapter you found the position that can be used as the position for your top menu. Lets assign the main menu to that position.

  • In admin panel, go to Extensions -> Module manager
  • Click to select Main menu
  • In “Position” select the proper position for your main menu, so it will be displayed on the top

  • Click save, refresh your page. (remove ?&tp=1 from the address bar if you’re still seeing the module positions)
