Hi @WOS , I’m not 100% sure what you’re asking for here. Do you have an example or more information on what it is you want to do? 🙂

I think this is what you are looking for….

Add a new “Link” in the pages inspector, and position it appropriately in the pages tree so it appears in the menu where you want it to.

Hi @WOS

I think you might be able to use the Modal and Top Pages components to achieve your list of links.

Here’s a quick video using those components:

Here’s [the project](elementsapp://downloadDocument/6StDPXC1dUgf) from the video.

Hopefully that’s what you’re wanting to achieve, but do let me know if you need any further help 🙂
