Overview

The instructions below will show you how to add a page to the menu bar using edit. In most cases you will be adding a Basic Page, as other types of pages are automatically set to appear places (i.e. News, Events, Research). For this example, we will be adding History to the About Us section.

Please Note: If you'd like to add a link or page to the menu and arrange it's placement, please visit Adding a link or page to the menu.
