Online store Navigation Menu Setup

Tried to post this on Weebly, they said I should post here.. BUt I don't see a topic for Online Store Issues...
I have two Questions....

1.) Is it possible to have more the Three Navigation items on the top bar? If so How do I do this.

2.) Is it possible to have the Left Column Navigation menu show all the time?  my problem I have now is that when someone drills down and is viewing a product they have no option to go anywhere else except what is show on the top menu bar...

I am guess this is something I don't have set correctly but I can't figure it out...

Site address is:  https://travelingbagsmke.square.site/

Thank you in advance to any wisdom, tips and tricks you all share....

Hey @Travelingbags thanks for asking!

 

1: To add more navigation links to the top of your page, go to Edit Website > Header > Navigation > Navigation links > Add navigation link. If you add more than the page can hold horizontally, then it will automatically create a drop down on the header for your customers to view the other options.

 

 

2: Unfortunately there is no way to get the side bar navigation to be permanently visible, but I will make sure to pass this feedback along!

I have a very similar issue to the one that @Travelingbags  originally posted about.
I have a need to have more than (what seems to be) the default number of Navigation Links available in the Header section of the site.
I have added two brand new categories to the site, but no matter what I do (I have followed the instructions mentioned by @AshleyK), they will not show up on my page. I cannot even get them to show up if I make them a subcategory. My Books and CDs categories are new.

But, as you can see, they do not show up in the Header navigation.

I've spent several hours on this and gone through the Help sections pretty thoroughly. I'm hoping the Community can now help. 🙂
Any thoughts, comments, or suggestions are quite welcome. The Published site currently is located at https://eastwindtradingco.square.site/

I'm having the same problem with missing categories in the navigation menu! They appear in my list, but not on the page.

I am trying to remove a link in my top navigation bar, but it is not showing up in the side navigation for adding and removing links. This is very frustrating. I have no idea where this link is coming from. The site is not published so I am unable to share the link to the site.

Hey there, @MBSHC

 

So sorry for your frustration. Which link are you trying to remove from your Navigation bar? 

 

I will keep an eye out for your reply👀

Thank you for replying. I was clicking the Navigation link with the arrow. It finally worked after 10 times. Must have been a glitch. Appreciate the reply. 😊

Hi there, @rcoomer & @crazybobcat - thanks for reaching out to us here on the Seller Community and flagging this issue to our attention. This sounds odd, indeed, and we appreciate your patience!

 

Thanks for trying out the steps in Ashley's post above. Since those steps didn't seem to rectify the issue for you, we may need to get eyes on this directly from our Ecom Support Team. Would you mind reaching out when you can? We will take a deeper dive with you directly.
