SP Page Builder (Pro)

Updated Last: 23 April 2024

Navigation

Navigation addon is a simple, independent menu addon. Menu items with inserted links are managed by this addon. URL aliases are still generated by Joomla Menu Manager, and the navigation addon doesn't change that.

How to Add a Navigation Addon

You can add the Navigation addon to your page from the SP Page Builder sidebar. Simply drag the addon from the Addons panel and drop it on the section of the page where you want to add a Navigation addon.

Navigation Settings

When you click on the Navigation, the addon inline editor will open up from where you can access the addon settings and customize it to fit your needs.

Navigation

  • Scroll To with Scroll Offset: it's useful for OnePage-type websites where you want to use Menu items with scroll to chosen section with extra space (offset) above.
  • Enable Sticky: Enabling this option keeps your menu (navigation) visible, allowing users to move across other parts of the page easily without needing to scroll to the very top. 
  • List Type: Choose whether you want the menu list type to be horizontally listed (Navigation) or vertically listed (List).
  • Burger Menu: Enable the Burger Menu to display the menu in three bars to toggle the menu.
  • Alignment: Used to set the horizontal alignment of navigation links. You can choose: left or right or centered.
  • Items: Add Items to your navigation menu.
