## Kick Things Off: Accessing Your Menu

First up, hop onto your WordPress site and pull up the page where you want to jazz up the menu. Click on the navigation block in the Gutenberg editor to see your current menu lineup.

## Dive Into the Settings

On the right-hand side, you'll see the "Navigation" sidebar. This is your control tower for menu operations.

## Time for Some Magic: Adding Submenus

Hover over a menu item, and click the three-dot icon that pops up. Choose "Add submenu" from the dropdown. This will let you start building a nested menu right under the main item.

## Picking Pages for the Submenu

If the pages you want aren't showing up, just use the search bar at the top of the submenu section. Type in the page title or a keyword, and voilà! Add them with a click.

## Go Deeper: Nested Submenus

Need even more layers? No problem! You can nest submenus within submenus, organizing them just like folders on your computer.

## Too Long? Trim It Down!

If a submenu label is hogging too much space, just click on it to edit. Shorten it up in the sidebar to keep things neat.

## Drag and Drop: Rearrange with Ease

Feel like changing the order? Just drag and drop any menu item in the sidebar. Arrange them to your heart's content!

And there you go! You've just spiced up your WordPress site with some slick new submenus. This isn't just about looking professional—it's about creating a smooth ride for your visitors.
