Using the WYSIWYG power of the Post and Page Builder you can create custom submenus with images, text, links, and more.<\/p>\n<p><i>To use this feature, you must have Crio version 2.18, Crio Premium version 1.8, and Post and Page Builder version 1.22.<\/i><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"create-a-mega-menu-item\">Create a Mega Menu Item<\/h2>\n<p>Start by navigating to Crio &gt; Mega Menus. Click the <b>Add New<\/b> button to create your first Mega Menu Item. The Title entered in the dashboard will be the default link name that appears in the menu, but like all menu links it can be changed from the Customizer. In this example we are starting with a Blank Page, but you can also use the Block Library if desired.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>First choose your <b>Submenu Width<\/b> in the metabox on the right side of the editor. You can choose between a fixed width in pixels or choose a percentage of the screen size. If you want a submenu to be a full-width menu, use the percentage option (100%).<br>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-72280\" src=\"https:\/\/www.boldgrid.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/mega-menu-width.png\" alt=\"Custom Submenu Width metabox\" width=\"224\" height=\"203\"><\/li>\n<li>Next you need to choose a background for this dropdown. Although you currently see a background color, the front end will show a transparent background unless one is specifically set. Hover in the empty area, click the hamburger menu in the black Section control, and click <b>Change Background. <\/b>You can choose an image, color, or pattern just like any other BoldGrid section.<br>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-72284\" src=\"https:\/\/www.boldgrid.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/mega-menu-section-background.jpg\" alt=\"Set Mega Menu Item Background\" width=\"268\" height=\"309\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.boldgrid.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/mega-menu-section-background.jpg 268w, https:\/\/www.boldgrid.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/mega-menu-section-background-260x300.jpg 260w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 268px) 100vw, 268px\" \/><\/li>\n<li>Now it&rsquo;s time to add the content.
