Add Menu
-
Hello.
I’m using Hellish Simplicity theme and I like it a lot.
https://ww.wp.xz.cn/themes/hellish-simplicity
demo: http://ryanhellyer.net/But I want to add navigation menu to my website.
Unlike with other themes, there are no options in admin panel to use a menu as main/secondary/footer/etc menu.I tried installing some plugins like

but menu didn’t appear.How can I do it?

That is my theme 🙂
You can add a menu to the sidebar via the widgets page in your admin panel.
If you want to add a horizontal menu, then that will require significant changes to the theme. I never designed it with the intention of having a horizontal menu and I’m not sure that adding one to it retrospectively is a good idea. If you desperately need a horizontal menu, then I think looking for a different theme would be your best option.
If you definitely want to add a horizontal menu to the Hellish Simplicity theme, then you will need to register a new menu, then add it via wp_nav_menu() in the header.php file, then add the required CSS. I can’t really teach how to do all that in a single forum thread though, as there’s a lot to learn. I’m not even sure how you would design the menu though. I think it would look a little odd if you just shoved a menu into the header randomly.
if the theme you really like doesn’t include any menus locations, you might need to add your own….

Thx for help!
I managed to do a simple horizontal menu by using Dropdown Menu Widget.
