Editing your site menus and navigation

For dealership staff who can edit website pages in the dealer portal.

Your site's navigation — the links across the top, and the ones in the footer — is something you can manage yourself. You don't need to raise a ticket to add a link, rename one, or take one down.

Editing your menus

1. Log in to dealers.overfuel.com.
2. Click Website, then Menus. Choose the menu: Main Menu, Footer: Quick Links or Footer: Optional 3rd Menu.
3. Click Add Link to add an item, or drag items to reorder them. Every change saves as soon as you make it; there is no separate Save for the whole menu.

⏱️ Allow about a minute. Menu changes can take up to a minute to appear on the live site. Most "it didn't work" reports are someone refreshing within ten seconds. Wait a minute, then check in a private window before concluding anything is wrong.

Dropdowns

To group links under a heading such as Specials or Service, add an item with Type: Link Group. Then add links and choose that group as their Parent Link Group. Dropdowns can be two levels deep.

? Adding a page you just built? The Add Link window lists "Pages recently created, not yet in your menu". Click one to fill in the details. The label is taken from the page's meta title, which is often long, so shorten it to a few words.

Linking to the right place

A menu item can point at anything:

• A page you've built — use its slug, for example /about-us.
• A filtered set of vehicles. Your site already serves inventory URLs like /trucks or /suvs, so "Shop Trucks" in the menu is just a link. Load the URL in a browser first to confirm it returns the vehicles you expect.
• An external site — a finance application, a manufacturer page, an event registration.

? Check the link before you publish it. The most common menu problem isn't the menu — it's a link pointing at a page that doesn't exist, or an inventory URL with no matching stock. Paste the URL into a browser first. A menu item leading to an empty results page is worse than no menu item.

A few things worth knowing

• Long menus don't survive phones. Every item you add competes for the same space. If you're adding a link, it's worth asking which one it replaces.
• Multiple rooftops have their own menus. Changing one store's navigation doesn't change its siblings — you'll need to repeat it, or ask us to apply the same change across the group.
• Deleting a menu item doesn't delete the page. The page stays live and reachable by its URL; it's just no longer linked. If you want the page gone, that's a separate step.
• Removing a page that a menu links to leaves a dead link behind. Take the menu item down too, and see the article on redirects if the page had traffic.

When to ask us instead

Email support@overfuel.com if:

• You want the same change applied across every rooftop in a group at once.
• You want to change how the navigation itself looks or behaves, for example its layout or how it works on mobile.
• You want a menu item styled differently from the others, such as a highlighted button.
• You've made a change, waited a few minutes, hard-refreshed, and it still isn't showing.

Include which rooftop, the exact label you want, and the destination URL.
