The Sub Navigation widget allows you to display child pages of a parent page in a widget area/sidebar. It displays the titles of the parent and child pages as a navigator.
In this article, we’ll explain how to display a navigator through the Sub Navigation widget in the Jupiter WordPress theme.
Displaying a Navigator
In order to display a navigator in a widget area/sidebar, you’ll need to add the JP – Sub Navigation widget to a widget area/sidebar, and then configure its settings.
Note: The widget should be added to a page that has child / sub pages otherwise it will won’t display a no navigator. If you are not familiar with child pages, read the Pages article in the WordPress documentation.
To add the widget:
1From the WordPress left menu, go to Appearance > Widgets.
2On the Widgets page, locate the JP – Sub Navigation widget in the Available Widgets column, and then drag and drop it into a widget area. In this example, we chose the Page Widget Area.
3Fill out the settings form with the necessary information, and then click on the Save button.
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Title | Displays a title at the top of the widget. If left empty, it will show nothing at the top of the navigator. |
| Sort by | Determines the order the links based on Page order, Page title and Page ID. |
| Exclude | Determines the ID of the posts that need to be excluded from the navigator. You’ll need to add ID of the posts and separate them with commas. For example: 24, 234, 45 |
Note: The widget is ready. Now you may need to add the Page widget area/sidebar to a page so you can see the widget. If you are not familiar with adding a widget area/sidebar to a page, read the Adding a sidebar article.
