Navigation Blocks - Adding to Storefront
This topic explains how to add a navigation block to a theme so that it appears in your storefront when that theme is enabled.
-
Open your control panel
- Click the Themes menu link
- Click the record row for the theme you wish to modify. You can view your current theme and your store's default theme settings at the top of the table.
- If you are viewing the record for the built in Squirrelcart theme, skip to step #6. If you are on any other theme record, continue below.
- If the Use Custom Navigation Blocks field shown in the image below is not checked, the theme is using the default navigation block configuration from the master squirrelcart theme. Check the Use Custom Navigation Blocks field, which will allow this theme to use it's own navigation blocks. If this field is already checked, continue to the next step.
- Locate the Navigation Blocks field set:

The Available Navigation Blocks field on the left shows navigation blocks that are not assigned to this theme. The Selected Navigation Blocks shows navigation blocks that are already assigned to this theme. They are grouped by purpose. The order they appear in in this field is the order that they will be shown in on your storefront page.
- Click the name of the navigation block you want to add under Available Navigation Blocks to select it
- Click the right arrow button between the 2 fields to add the navigation block to the Selected Navigation Blocks field
- If you wish to change the position of the navigation block, click on it and then click the arrows to the right side of Selected Navigation Blocks to position it whereever you like.
- Repeat this process for each navigation block you wish to add
