Upload a Menu Background Image

To complete the customization of your ‘Menu Sidebar’, you have the option to upload a custom image as your menu background. To edit this access the options on the left-hand side of your screen and scroll to the bottom, here you can upload an image to make your ‘Menu Sidebar’ fully branded.

Link to a Webpage

All of the menu items, except for the webpage, link to native functional items in the app.

If you want to link to external content such as blog posts, social channels, size charts, and more, you can add the URL to the webpage option.
