ExpressionEngine add-ons may include their own pre-set menu items. This is often the case when it’s useful to have ready access to multiple sections of the add-on. If any installed add-ons include a pre-set menu section, it will be selectable under the ‘Add-on’ menu type.

This option allows you to add a single link, either to an external URL or to a page in the control panel.
Name¶
The text to display in the menu.
URL¶
The URL for the menu item. This may be an external or an internal URL.
Dropdown¶
With complex menus, you may want to break your navigation up into nested subsections. The dropdown menu type allows you to do this.
Name¶
The top level name for this section to dispaly in the menu.
Submenu¶
