    • The Administration area is only available to administrator-level users.
    • If you do not see the Public Navigation tab, Contact Us and we can make it available on your site.
  2. Scroll to the bottom of the page, and you will see the two new groups. Click the checkbox next to Group Active to enable them.
  3. Make any adjustments to the settings to suit your needs.

    • URL changes the link the user will be taken to when clicked.
    • Order # specifies the order in which the groups should appear on the public side.
    • Select the checkbox next to Group Active to enable the group to display on the public side.
    • Click Add New Link to add a link that will appear while hovering over the group title on the public side – more on that later.
  4. Scroll to the bottom of the page and click Update.

Adding Category Links

Another new feature allows you to link to a specific program, membership, or product category with just a few clicks!

    • If adding a Product category, select the desired category from the drop-down menu.
  3. The Title and URL fields will automatically populate with the name of the category and the link to view the associated programs, memberships, or products.
