i want to create a menu and a footer which would help in navigating within an Office 365 SharePoint Site. Should I use structural navigation or Managed Metadata under Global Navigation?
The menu would display the items listed under the main Category when clicked on it.
- Home
- Services->Fleet Management, Courier, Freight Forwarding, Consulting
- Company->Board Members, History, Principles
- Safety->Security, Response, Emergency
Also, these are the same terms that would be displayed in the footer in a rectangular block in the Master Page.
How should i go about creating the menu and footer for the site. Please help…
There are two options:
1. If you are using term store and your menu does not have additional CSS or any JavaScript reference to open menu – go with Managed meta data navigation.
2. If your menu contains additional CSS and JavaScript files reference – go with SharePoint Framework Extensions (Application Customizer).
