{% hint style="danger" %}
**Please note**: *Not all themes have a Vertical Menu. This guide is only for themes designed with a Vertical Menu on the homepage. If you use a theme package that does not have Vertical Menu, please skip this tutorial.*
{% endhint %}

## Steps to Configure Vertical Menu :

1. In the header customization panel, scroll down, and you will see the "Vertical menu" item; please check the **"Show Vertical menu"** item to display the Vertical menu. Or uncheck this option if you want to disable the Vertical menu. (photo #1)
2. To configure the submenus, you need to add the "Vertical menu" block > name the item, attach a link to the item, and add an icon. As many menus as you want, add each block. (Please see photo #2)
