Creating Navigation Menus
Build static and dynamic navigation menus for your blog.
Good navigation is crucial for user experience. Blogger themes can have menus powered by the Pages widget, the Labels widget, or a custom-built HTML menu.
Method 1: The Pages Widget
The easiest method. Simply add a Pages widget in your Layout dashboard, and it will automatically generate a list of links to your static pages.
Method 2: The LinkList Widget
This widget allows you to manually create a list of any links you want in the Layout dashboard. You can link to labels, external sites, or specific posts. This offers more flexibility than the Pages widget.
Method 3: Custom HTML Menu (Advanced)
For full control over the structure and styling, especially for dropdown/sub-menus, you can build the menu directly in your theme's HTML. You would typically do this inside a locked HTML/JavaScript widget.
