Sections
Your primary navigation menu consists of two types of sections: Single and Multiple.
Your primary navigation menu in Breedpost is built using Sections, which provide structure and organization to your site's navigation. There are two main types of sections you can use:
Single Section
Purpose: Acts as a container for a single webpage.
Use Case: Ideal for standalone pages, such as:
About Us
Blog
Contact Us
How It Works: Once you create a Single Section, you can add one page to it. This keeps your navigation clean and straightforward.
Multiple Section
Purpose: A dropdown menu that can hold several related pages.
Use Case: Perfect for grouping similar pages under one main heading, such as:
Our Dogs (Dropdown)
Males
Females
Retired
Blog (Dropdown)
Training Tips
Health Advice
Success Stories
Best Practice: Multiple Sections should contain at least three pages. If you only have two pages, consider using a Single Section instead for simplicity.
Why Use Sections?
Organize Your Navigation: Sections ensure your menu is well-structured and user-friendly.
Control Content Display: Decide which pages are visible in your menu and how they are grouped.
Flexibility: Adjust your sections at any time to match your website’s growth and content needs.
Example Navigation Setup
Here's how a typical site might use sections for a clear, user-friendly navigation:

Naming Your Sections Effectively
Be Clear and Descriptive: Use names that clearly describe the content, like "Our Dogs" or "Contact Us."
Avoid Overly Long Names: Keep section names short and to the point.
Use Consistent Formatting: Maintain consistent capitalization (e.g., "Our Dogs" instead of "our dogs").
Match User Expectations: Think about what your visitors are looking for and name sections accordingly.
