Top Navigation

Creating Top Navigation

For the top navigation, create a navigation.yml file in the _data directory with the following format with the pages you want to include in the top navigation. You can also add items to a dropdown menu.

- name: Page Name
  link: /page-1/
- name: Blog
  link: /blog/
  dropdown: 
    - name: Page 2
      link: /page-2/

For the current page to have an active class, ensure the link: format matches your permalink format. The above example will work with a permalink: pretty setting in your _config.yml.

Fixed Navbar

To have a fixed or sticky navbar on the top or bottom of your site, you can set fixed_navbar: top or fixed_navbar: bottom respectively in your _config.yml.
