Hello… It’s another A-Z of WordPress. The series where we attempt to cover all the major aspects of building and maintaining sites with WP. Today is for M for Menus…
If you listen to the podcast, this is broadly the aspects that we touch upon. And David came up with a clever way of creating nice sounding sub-menus for this this one!
Funny, only yesterday I (David) had an issue with an update messing up the navigation on a site and was reminded of how important it is and how we probably should keep things as simple as possible.
I am sure no one would be listening to this if it was not for well organized links. Good navigation is probably at the top of the list of things we should care about on a website.
Jakob Nielsen “the guru of Web page usability” and Don Norman (nngroup), are both good places to look at:

David:
This has got me thinking about building a collection of menu templates. I have not sorted out my best mobile menu set up yet. Still too much of an afterthought in these mobile first days.
Nathan:
I’m really lazy and basically rely on the options that the theme that I’m using presents to me. I’m only just switching on to the fact that accessibility is a really important thing here. I’m also curious about how we get more into the menus on mobile with such a small area of screen estate to play with – the future here will be worth watching.
