# Using menu as content?

 * Hi,
    I’m planning a minimalist site, consisting of just a vertical accordeon 
   with five sections that are represented by a word each and open accordéon style
   when the word is clicked to display content.
 * For seo purposes I would also like these five words to be the menu navigation
   for the site. Is it possible to incorporate a Jquery accordeon into the menu 
   navigation or should I build the site without menu navigation?

 * You can.
 * wp_nav_menu uses the menu system in wp-admin to create a menu with the appropriate
   html markup.

 * Feel free to use any jQuery Accordion plugins or write one yourself to turn it
   into an interactive navigation menu.

 * Hi,
    Just so I understand correctly, it’s not an interactive menu navigation 
   that I am after (e.g. accordeon opening with submenu). I will only have one menulevel,
   and I want the accordeon to display content, preferably <article> content.
 * Maybe my question is a non-question, but there is something with mixing navigation
   and article-content that raises red flags in my head, but I can’t really wrap
   my head around it.

 * Perhaps it will be easier if you just try it first, and report back with what
   you’re not getting right 🙂

 * Yes, I will do that. I am just trying to plan ahead for the work this week-end,
   so as not to bog myself down in a trialerror maelstrom that could be avoided 
   because it was misconstrued from the outset. I’ll report back.
 * (Maybe I am just exaggerating the need for a menu system? In terms of using the
   site there is nothing to be gained, that’s for sure.)

 * It’s find to use the menu system in WP.
