How to Create Mega Menu in Your WordPress Website

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

Now , the reason why I'm doing this like this is because I just want to help you all visualize what we're actually trying to achieve and um just trying to give you some ideas .

Now , the reason why I'm not going to duplicate .

This is because uh we haven't edited first yet .

So I want to edit it first and then I want to go ahead and change it .

I didn't forget the divider model , didn't I under this plus icon ?

I'll add in the divider module like that first .

Things first .

Under this icon , I can go ahead and align this to the center like that .

And remember earlier how we use the actual paragraph in the H two tag , we can do the same thing here because remember uh this text is different from this one .

Now , I'm kind of lazy guys .

I'll be honest .

So I'm lazy .

So what I'm gonna do is I'm going to just duplicate this section here , right ?

I mean , why , why work hard twice guys ?

Why , why , you know , I'm lazy .

We're all lazy here and I'll just drag that below that .

And for this section , I'll just align this to the center .

So to install the plug-in , let's go to our press dashboard .

Now , go to plugins and click add new .

Now here search for SK and you'll get this plug in .

Now , this is a plug in which will help us to create mega menu on our word press site .

So to install the plug-in , let's click , install and then click activate .

We have successfully installed the plug-in .

Once you have installed the plug-in in order to make the element skip plug in , work properly , you need to install the elemental plug in .

So let's click , install and click , activate , plug in .

So now we have installed the element of plug-in on our site .

Once you've installed both the plugins now to make the mega menu appear on our site , first , we need to create a separate header section on our site .

So next , let's go to step two , which is to create a header section to create it .

Let's go to elements kit and click , had a photo and then click add new .

Now here give a name for your section .

I'm going to enter and activate it and then click , edit and it will take you to this page where you can design your header section .

Ok .

Now you need to select a layout for our header section to select the layout .

Click here and click sections , then go to category and click here .

You will get different types of layouts which you can use to design your header section .

Now to see the preview of how your layout looks , click on it and you can see how the layout looks .

And also for this one , I'll double click on all of this and I'll line this to the center as well .

So I'll delete that April fools .

Yeah , we're not using that no more .

And for this one , why should we do that again ?

We can just , you know , duplicate this , right ?

And then I'll just drag this to the bottom here and I want to align this to the center .

Oops wrong one .

So sometimes you might have problems clicking on a module .

Now , if that ever happens .

There's a few things you can do .

I'll click on this purple icon at the bottom and right here we have this little brick or I don't know what those are .

We can click on that and this kind of displays everything about what we're doing .

We have this section row and we have two dividers here .

So I'll just go ahead and delete one .

You know , I don't need two , but this is how you can kind of visually see your website uh from like a block standpoint .

You know , it's funny uh about a year and a half ago , two years .

This was the only way to build pages with Dibby if they didn't have a front and builder .

So that was version before 3.0 And that was a long time ago .

I'll just uh align this to the center .

I believe this is under the uh let's see under the sizing .

Is it the module ?

I , there you go , the center like that .

And also , you know , we don't need to really , you know , I don't really want to do this all over again .

So what I'll do as well is I'll duplicate this module and I'll just drag it to the bottom and just drop it in there .

Now , I have this background image .

So let's go ahead and add in the background image here .

I'll go over here and add a background image .

There we go .

And then I'll click on that now , we might need to change these two whites .

Now , instead of having to do that all over again or even duplicating it , I can copy this module style and I can paste it on other modules .

So what I'll do is I'll right click and when I right click over a module , you'll see certain things .

You'll see uh split test , save a library , all of this stuff .

However , I can click on copy module styles and I can paste it right over there like that and paste it and then paste it again like that .

Now , the reason why I didn't change the read more is because the read more , I actually use it through the text editor .

So I'd have to go ahead and change that uh manually .

But uh that's just an example of how you can go ahead and copy module styles from other places and bring them to somewhere else .

Now , what I did here is I just added a drop shadow or I can even add in a black background and I just made it transparent .

So there's a few ways of how you can achieve that .

So for example , for the first column here , I'll go to the design tab and under the backgrounds , I just want to add in a black background , right ?

And I can just make it very transparent .

What I'll do is just make this very transparent like that .

You see how I did that .

Now , also you might notice how we have no space .

Remember how we talked about padding before , how we want space above and below .

Now is a good time to exhibit that .

So for the sizing here , let's see where it is .

Where is it the spacing here ?

Let's add some padding of 10 pixels to the top , right ?

And then we also have 10 pixels to the bottom .

So now you can see how we have the , the padding and now you can visually see where it should be applied .

It's just a really , you know , a good way on how to , you know , add padding and everything to your website .

I can even add more here , maybe 20 pixels is good .

Now , what I also could have done is I could have added a box shadow around that specific column as well .

So let's just say I wanted to add in something like that or like this , you know , I can always add in some sort of design and the core to it .

It's really up to you , you know , I , I like box shadows but just be careful .

Don't add too much of them because it's a quick way to make your website like really tacky .

So now that I've added that little background over it , um I can go ahead and maybe uh change this specific column to the left side , you'll see here how I have this column to the left and I'll show you how I did that what I did to achieve that is I actually changed the actual size of the column .

I'm sorry , the icon for the image icon placement , I left it at top , I put it to the left side .

Now we have this option right here to use the icon , font size and I just made it a lot more smaller , something like that .

And for this text , I actually put it to the left side here .

So I put it to the left side and also I put this as well to the left side .

So there's really no right or wrong way to do things .

That's just how I achieve that .

Now , instead of doing this all over again , I can delete these and I can just duplicate that module .

So that's essentially how I achieved this section right here .

So you can kind of go through a ahead and mess around with it .

It's the same thing , you know , just some small adjustments I need to make .
