Description

In Joomla, menus organize the navigational structure of a website. A site can have multiple menus - for example a main navigation, a footer menu, or a user menu. This skill covers what menus are, how they are managed in the backend, and how the menu structure relates to the site's URLs.

Goals

I know

  • what a menu is in Joomla and how it differs from a menu item
  • that a Joomla site can have multiple menus (e.g. main navigation, footer, user menu)
  • that menus define the navigation structure of the site
  • that changing the menu structure affects the site's SEF URLs
  • that menus are displayed on the frontend via menu modules

I can

  • create a new menu in the Joomla backend
