Set the menu layout for a site

You specify your own settings for each menu (top, bottom, left and right). You can also record other styles for a selected menu item and you can deviate from the default style when a visitor moves his/her mouse over the menu item (mouse over). In this example we set the style for Menu level 2.

You can set the presentation of the menu yourself. For all menu types, you can display up to a maximum of three levels.

Example:

1. Log on and start Site management.
