Setting up the Mega Menu
Turbo comes with the ability to create up to five advanced mega menu layouts. Each of these mega menus can have up to five columns of content. Within each column, you will now have the ability to configure 'Top content', 'Navigation', and 'Bottom content' which includes:
- An optional block of text at the top and/or bottom of the column
- An optional image of your choice with optional link and caption at the top and/or bottom of the column
- Up to four separate menus of your choice
The Mega Menu is primarily configured in the Theme Editor, however, to get started, you'll need to create a menu (or menus) in the Navigation area of your storefront from your Shopify Admin:
In your Theme Editor you can then enable the mega menu/menus by going into Customize > Theme Settings > Mega Menus > here you can enable 1 - 5 mega menus. Once you have enabled 1 or more mega menus, you will then have access to the 'Mega Menu' tab under Sections:
For each mega menu you've enabled, enter a 'Link title' that matches the link in the main menu that you want the mega menu to appear under. For example, if you want your mega menu to appear under the 'Our Shop' menu item, the 'Link title' will need to be named 'Our Shop' as well! You can then add columns to your mega menu by clicking the 'Add column' button.
Important: the 'Link title' must match the wording of the main menu link exactly!
Note: Only up to 5 mega menus can be enabled. If you would like more than 5, it will require additional development work to achieve! For additional development inquiries, we have a list of Shopify Experts who can help!
