How The Menu Element And Menu Work Together

How The Menu Element And Menu Work Together

The Menu Element allows you to display and customize an existing Menu, and can be used anywhere in your content. But it will most typically be used in Custom Header Layouts. See the Menu Element documentation for a full rundown of the element and all of its many options, but in this document, we are going to explore how it works in concert with the actual WordPress menu, and review some common situations using the Menu Element.,OverviewCreating Your Menu In WordPressWhere The Menu Element Stops and The Menu StartsHow The Prebuilt Headers Layouts WorkHow To Add Avada』s Special Menu Items,Creating Your Menu In WordPressThe first step, before using the Menu Element, is to have an existing menu. Menus are core WordPress business, and are created under Appearance > Menus, from the WordPress dashboard. See our Setting Up A Menu doc, or the WordPress Menu User Guide on the WordPress Codex for detailed information on this step.
The Menu Element then controls how the menu displays, but there also some options to be aware of in the Menu itself, that affect the menu』s appearance.

Get Avada,Where The Menu Element Stops And The Menu StartsWhen creating your menu in WordPress, there are several options with the menu and the menu items that will affect how the menu will display on the page, whether assigned via the WordPress Menu Options, or displayed using the Menu Element.
Please review the Menu Settings doc for a full rundown of what you can configure while building a menu, but these primarily include the Avada Menu Options, found in every menu item, and the Avada Special Menu Items, found at the bottom left of the menu area.
For example, with the Avada Menu Options, you can style a menu item as a button, add an icon or show the menu item only as an icon, add a Menu Highlight Label, or enable a Mega Menu on the item. All of these options would affect how the menu displayed when using the Menu Element, and as such, the styling for such aspects of the menu items would come from the Menu itself, and not the Menu Element.
And with the addition of the Avada Special Menu Items in Avada 7.0, this is where you would add things like WooCommerce iconized menus, Search bars and Sliding Bar Toggles, if wanting to use a menu with the Menu Element.,How The Prebuilt Headers WorkWhen importing the Prebuilt Headers, do not be concerned if they don』t initially look exactly as the preview. This is because of the above mentioned connection with the actual menu and its settings. When you import a demo Header, the Menu Element uses the first Menu on the site, and the Image Element will only import a logo if one has been uploaded via the options. Therefore, not all of the Layouts will produce a menu like the previews without some extra work, either adding a logo, selecting the appropriate menu, or building a suitable menu for the corresponding area in the template.
For a detailed rundown of each Pre-Built Header, and what you need to customize, please see the Prebuilt Headers for Layouts document.,How To Add Avada』s Special Menu ItemsTo see details of each specific Special Menu Item, head to the Avada Special Menu Items doc. When assigning Menus via WordPress, these options are added via the Global Options, but when using the Menu Element, these special items need to be added to the menu itself for them to appear. These are the WooCommerce Cart, the WooCommerce My Account, Search functionality, and the Sliding Bar Toggle.
Each of these Special Items has their own Avada Menu Options panel, and can be added to menus by themselves or with other menu items.

One Page Menu with Multi-Page Links

One Page Menu with Multi-Page Links

When creating a menu for a website that has anchor links as well as normal links to other pages, you may find that your menu items with anchor links may not work or behave as expected. If you』d like to know more about why this is and how to properly create a menu with a combination of absolute and relative links, please continue reading our detailed guide below.
IMPORTANT NOTE – Please note that anchor links won』t work with the Header Layout #6 that comes with Avada version 4.0.Absolute Vs. Relative LinksTo fully understand the process of of creating a menu with anchor links and normal links, we first need to understand the difference between absolute links and relative links. Please continue reading below for a brief description of each type of links and how they work.
Absolute LinksAn absolute link contains your full site URL. For example, http://www.theme-fusion.com or http://www.theme-fusion.com/about#team. As you can see from the second example, an absolute link may also contain an anchor that is located on another page. Unlike a relative link, using an absolute link as a menu item to point to an anchor on another page will always work, regardless of which page on the website you』re currently on.
Relative LinksRelative links are links which are local or relative to only a specific page. Meaning, the browser will have to be on that page for the link to navigate to the desired location. For example, if the About page contains an Avada Menu Anchor element or an element with the ID team, then a menu item that has the #team relative link as the menu item』s URL, that menu item will only work on the About page.
Creating A Multi-Page MenuThe proper way to create a menu that has both relative and absolute links would be to create two separate menus. One menu to act as your Main Menu, and one menu specifically tailored for the page that contains the anchor links. You』ll then assign your main menu normally, and the specific menu to the corresponding page using Fusion Page Options. Below is a detailed guide on creating both menus.
How To Create Your Main MenuStep 1 – Go to the Appearance > Menus tab and create a new menu.
Step 2 – Build your menu as you normally would. For the links that you』d like to point to an anchor on a specific page, insert a 『Custom Link』 and use the absolute link of the anchor. For example, if the anchor you』d like to point to is on the About page, then your URL will look like this: http://www.website.com/about#team
Step 3 – Keep repeating Step 2 until all your menu items that point to an anchor on another page all contain their respective absolute links.
Step 4 – Set this menu as your Main Navigation by checking the 『Main Navigation』 checkbox under Menu Settings.
Step 5 – Save all your changes by clicking the 『Save Menu』 button.
How To Create Your Specific MenuStep 1 – Go to the Appearance > Menus tab and create a new menu. Give it a unique name. For example, About Page Menu. For a visual guide of the steps, click here.
Step 2 – Build your specific menu identical to your main menu. This time, instead of putting absolute links in the menu items that point to an anchor on another page, you』ll insert their relative link. For example, if the absolute link is http://www.website.com/about#team, then you』ll replace it with just #team as seen in in example image.
Step 3 – Keep repeating Step 2 until all your menu items that point to an anchor on another page all contain their respective relative links.
Step 4 – Save all your changes by clicking the 『Save Menu』 button.
Step 5 – Navigate to the specific page that contains the anchor links.
Step 6 – Go to Fusion Page Options > Header and select your specific menu from the dropdown on the Main Navigation Menu option.
Step 7 – Save all your changes by clicking 『Save Draft』 or 『Publish』.
Why Create A Multi-Page Menu This Way?Creating two menus is the proper way to create a multi-page menu because it』s the best way to display relative links. If you only use one menu and only use relative anchor links for your menu items, then those menu items will not work unless you』re in the specific page where those anchors are found. This is because WordPress just appends the anchor to the current URL.
On the other hand, If you only use absolute links, then all your menu items containing the anchor links will all be highlighted when you』re in the specific page where those anchors are found. This is because as far as WordPress is concerned, you』re already on that anchor because you』re on the specific page they』re located.
