How to add Dropdown Navigation?

Learn Ghost Theme

Table of Contents

In the Learn Ghost theme, we have added a dynamic dropdown feature for navigation. This allows you to easily set up your site’s menu directly from the Ghost Admin panel.

How to Set Up Dropdown Navigation

  1. Log in to your Ghost Admin panel.
  2. Go to Settings > Navigation.
  3. In the Primary Navigation section, add your main menu items. This menu appears at the top navbar of your website.

Example Navigation Structure

Home
- Home v1
- Home v2
- Home v3
Courses
Pages
Blog

Learn Ghost Theme Navigation

  • Add [-] in front of any parent navigation item that has dropdown child items.
  • Child items should be listed as - under the parent.

Secondary Navigation

Ghost also supports a Secondary Navigation option, which you can set up similarly in the admin panel. However, the secondary navigation does not support dropdowns and is usually displayed in the footer area.
