Page builders and menus

Design pages visually and set up navigation.

📖 Key ideas

  1. Page builders like Elementor allow drag-and-drop design.
  2. Menus: Appearance → Menus or Navigation block.
  3. Widgets/blocks fill sidebars and footers.
  4. Set a static homepage in Settings → Reading.
  5. Keep designs consistent with global colours and fonts.
💡 Real-life example: A page builder is a drag-and-drop poster maker for website pages.
