How Do I Create a Nested Menu in Shopify?

Last updated on January 8, 2023 @ 7:42 am

Nested menus are a great way to organize your Shopify store’s navigation. By nesting menus, you can create sub-categories and drop-down menus to help customers find what they’re looking for. In this article, we’ll show you how to create a nested menu in Shopify.

First, you’ll need to log in to your Shopify admin panel. From there, go to Online Store, and then Navigation.

Next, click on the Menu that you want to edit. In the Add menu item field, type in the name of the category or page that you want to add.

Then, select the Parent Item from the drop-down menu. This will be the top-level item in your nested menu.

Now that you’ve added your first nested menu item, you can add more by repeating the steps above. To reorder your items, simply drag and drop them into the desired order.

And that’s it! You’ve now successfully created a nested menu in Shopify.

There are a few things to keep in mind when creating nested menus:

  • Only pages and links can be added as parent items.

  • If you want to add a blog post or product as a child item, you first need to add it as a page.
  • Nested menus can only be created using the desktop version of Shopify.

PRO TIP: If you are not familiar with Shopify’s theme code, we recommend that you hire a Shopify Expert to help you with this. Making changes to your theme’s code can result in unexpected problems and may break your store.
