Build menus and collections

These are two different things with confusingly similar purposes.

	What it is
Navigation	Your menus — the links customers use to get around
Structures	How cubes are grouped — closest thing to a collection

A Structure is a group of cubes. A Navigation menu item is a link. You often point a menu item at a Structure, which is where the confusion comes from.

Add a menu item

1. Open Structure › Navigation.

2. Add an item and give it a label.

3. Point it at where it should go — a cube, or a Structure.

4. Save.

Menus can be per-language, so check each language you support.

Create a Structure

1. Open Structure › Structures.

2. Create a Structure and name it.

3. Add the cubes that belong in it.

A cube can be in more than one Structure. Nothing stops a product being in both “New in” and “Sale”.

Which do I want?

Tip

If you are trying to group products, you want a Structure. If you are trying to give someone a way to reach them, you want Navigation. Usually you want both: a Structure holding the cubes, and a menu item pointing at it.

Keep menus short

A swipe-first storefront is mostly browsed by swiping, not by navigating. Menus are a fallback for people who know what they want. A long menu is usually a sign the Feed is not doing its job.
