Select ‘Settings’ followed by ‘Menus’.

Start by entering a name for the Menu in the 'Details' section.
💡 Make sure the name is clear and recognisable so you know which Menu you're looking for when you wish to add it to a Document.
Before continuing, select the ‘Save’ button at the bottom of the page.
A 'Menu Structure' will then display ready for you to begin adding ‘Menu Items'.
