Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 4:36 am

There are two types of menus in Squarespace: Primary Menus and Secondary Menus. To add a submenu, you’ll need to create a new Primary Menu and add items to it. Here’s how:

  1. In the Home Menu, click Pages.
  2. Click the + icon next to the page you want to add a submenu to.
  3. Click Add Page.
  4. In the Add Page menu, select Primary Menu.
  5. Enter a name for your new menu in the Name field.
  6. Click Done.

  1. In the Home Menu, click Design.
  2. Click Site Styles.
  3. Scroll down to the Navigation section and click Main Navigation.
  4. In the drop-down menu, select the name of your new menu.
  5. Click Save.

PRO TIP: Adding a submenu in Squarespace can be tricky and may not work as expected. If you are not careful, you may end up with a broken menu.

That’s it!
Your submenu is now live on your site.

Adding a submenu in Squarespace is easy – simply create a new Primary Menu and add items to it. You can then select this menu in the ‘Main Navigation’ drop-down under ‘Site Styles’.
