How to Add Multiple Links under Headings to Global Navigation
To add multiple links under a Heading to your global navigation:
- Click Site Actions, and then click Manage Content and Structure
- Scroll over your site name in the left window pane and from the drop-down menu choose Site Settings
- In the Site Settings window select Navigation under the Look and Feel Section
- In the Navigation Setting window scroll down to the Navigation Editing and Sorting section to view your Global and Current Navigation
- Select the Global Navigation folder and then select the Add Heading button.
- Complete the fields in the Navigation Heading window. The title will appear in the navigation. The URL will be the link to an external site or you can link to another page within your site. If linking to an external site (which we don’t recommend in the global navigation) be sure to select the check box for Open Link in New Window. The description will appear when the mouse hovers over the link. It is recommended you leave the audience field blank so all site users can see the link. Select OK when done.
You should now see the new heading in the global navigation.
