Last checked August 2026. Wix changes its interface often — if something looks different, the underlying steps usually still apply.
Your menu is how visitors decide whether your website is worth their time. Keep it short, obvious and boring — this is not the place to be creative.
Step 1: Open Pages and Menu
Click Pages and Menu in the editor toolbar, then choose the Menus tab if your site has more than one menu.
Step 2: Add and reorder items
Drag pages up and down to change the order. Put the pages that lead to enquiries near the front.
Step 3: Create a submenu
Drag one page slightly to the right underneath another to nest it. Use this for groups of service pages, not for hiding important pages.
Step 4: Add a link that is not a page
You can add a menu item that points to an anchor on the current page, an external website or a phone number.
Step 5: Rename menu labels
The menu label does not have to match the page name. Shorter labels keep the menu on one line.
Step 6: Check the mobile menu
Switch to the mobile view and open the hamburger menu. Submenus behave differently on phones, so test every level.
Step 7: Publish and click every link
Go through the live menu once, clicking everything. Broken menu links are the most common problem on small business websites.
Common questions
- How do I hide a page from the Wix menu?
- Open the page settings from Pages and Menu and turn off the option that shows the page in the menu. The page stays live at its address.
