Using the Menu Editor

Each participant in your event has access to a personal web page, and the event itself has a public page. The Menu Editor controls what’s available on those pages.

Where is it?

You’ll find the Menu Editor in the Configure tab. Choose Site Design.

From there, choose Menu Editor and which menu you want to update:

	We’re showing the Attendee menu here, but all menu editors work the same way.
	In the examples below, we’ve enabled our Graphical Landing Pages feature.

Default view

By default, all menu items are visible on the Attendee, Company, and Public web pages.

In addition, if you’re using the Graphical Landing Page feature, you’ll see the default selection of icons that display on the Welcome page:

You’ll make changes from the left sidebar. Once you save, those changes will appear in the icon panel on the right.

Showing or hiding menu items

You can use the methods below interchangeably.

Option 1

To hide any item from view, click the check box. A red X appears to indicate that the item is hidden, and its icon disappears.

If you’d like to re-enable the item later, return to this page and click the checkbox again.

Be sure to click Save:

Option 2

With this method, you can keep the original icons in place in your Admin view, but see what’s currently hidden.

Right-click on a menu item. Then choose Toggle Show/Hide Icon. You’ll see a symbol appear over the icon so you know it’s hidden for your participants. Be sure to click Save!

You can repeat this action any time to re-enable this item:

Showing/hiding menu items for specific circumstances

You can get even more specific about when certain menu items are visible.

Right click on any menu item to see the options. In this example, we want the Profile tab to display only for specific kinds of users:

The options you see here will depend on the services you’re using for your event. Here are some other possibilities:

Payment Status: If you’re taking payments, you can hide or show menu items based on payment status.
Approval Status: If you’re using a registration approval process, you can show or hide menu items based on whether a registration is approved or not.
Group Name: If you’re using the Group Name field in the Form Editor, you can organize your participants into groups. In the Menu Editor, you can then hide or show menu items to specific groups.

Reordering menu items

You can change the order of menu items at any time during your event.

To move any menu item to a different spot, click and drag. Once you click Save, you’ll see the change in the icon display as well:

Renaming menu items

You can change the label on any menu item. Right click, and then choose Rename.

Then you’ll be able to edit the label. Once you click Save, you’ll see the icon label change as well:

Creating nested menu items

Sometimes, you might want menu items to have sub-items, like this:

First, click Create menu container. Give it a label, and then drag the sub-menu items over this container.

Be sure to click Save!

	The default menu items can’t be used as menu containers. You’ll always need to create a new container.
	The menu editor supports one level of nesting. In other words, you can’t nest sub-menu items under other sub-menu items.
	You can nest any items you like in the menu bar, but their icons always display without nesting.

Changing an icon

You can choose a different icon for any menu item. We use FontAwesome’s library, which has thousands of options.

In the left sidebar, right-click on the item you want to update. Then choose Change Icon.

Type in a description for the icon you want instead. You’ll be able to choose from a selection that matches your description. Choose a new icon, and then click Save:
