To add content to your site:
Go to the site structure tab.
Click the + Add item button.
Choose spaces and projects from your linked Confluence/JSM instance.
The content you add will automatically appear in your site’s navigation menu. By dragging and dropping items, you can group them to create drop-downs in the navigation menu (see the video below). You can also organize items into folders, and add links to other sites as menu items. You can even exclude certain items from the navigation menu if you want.
Read on to learn about all the ways you can shape your site’s structure and menu.
