Setup Navigation
Table of Contents
Managing your site’s navigation in Ghost is simple and user-friendly. You can add, remove, reorder, or edit menu items directly from the Ghost Admin Panel, without editing any code.
Navigation Settings
To access the navigation settings:
- Log in to your Ghost Admin Panel
- Go to Settings > Site
- Scroll down to the Navigation section
Example direct link:
yoursite.com/ghost/#/settings
Adding or Editing Menu Items
Within the Navigation section, you can fully customize your site’s menu:
- Add new items – Enter a Label (the menu name) and its URL.
You can use external links or internal paths (e.g.,/about/
,/contact/
). - Edit items – Click into any label or URL field to update it.
- Reorder items – Drag and drop menu rows to change the order.
- Remove items – Delete a row to remove it from the menu.
Important Notes
- Always click Save after making changes.
- If you navigate away without saving, your updates will be lost.
- Ghost supports both a Primary Navigation (main site menu) and a Secondary Navigation (footer or additional menu). Make sure to update the correct section.

By following these steps, you’ll keep your site’s navigation clean, intuitive, and up to date with the latest Ghost features.
