Menu & Menu Item content items

Menus are built with two content items: 

  • Menu: the parent container for your menu items.
  • Menu Item: menu items allow you to add items to your menu and configure the contents of each menu.
    • You can configure dropdowns using the Dropdown element.
    • Menu items have a content block to enable you to add content to the dropdown.

There are multiple examples of menu blocks designed to help you to create different navigation styles. You can see these in Building a Header.

  • Title: Sets the text in the menu item title.
  • Style: Sets the CTA design token that displays for the menu item.

Elements

  • Dropdown: configure design settings for a dropdown which is shown when the user hovers over the menu item.
