WP has this functionality built in, see: Appearance:Menus
OK, but how does it work with menus? Are there instructions? All my searches find plugins but not the menu widget. Its rather confusing.
On the Menu page it says:
“Your theme supports 1 menu. Select which menu you would like to use.”
What do they mean by that? I want to add links to the page links on the nav bar. That’s all.
How would I add drop downs to the navigation bar? Is there a simple instructions?
Create a Menu, save it, then it will appear as an option at “Your theme supports 1 menu. Select which menu you would like to use.” and read the documentation linked to please
Here are the instructions from the codex about menus
