# Create brand-new menu item

Creating a brand-new menu item allows you to fully customize the navigation experience for your customers. Whether it's a new category, a special promotion, or a custom page, adding a new menu item is simple and highly flexible. Follow these steps to set up your own custom item.

### 🛠️ Step 1: Access the Menu Settings

2. Navigate to the menu you want to edit or create a new one.

### 📝 Step 2: Add a New Menu Item

1. Click on the **"Add item"** button to start adding a new item to your menu.
2. A new form will appear where you can customize your item.&#x20;
3. Fill in the following fields:
   * **Icon (Optional)**: You can enhance the menu item by adding an icon. This is especially useful for visual cues, such as a shopping cart, a phone, or a heart icon.
   * **Title**: This is the name displayed on the menu. Choose something that clearly represents the page or section the menu item links to (e.g., "Shop Now", "New Arrivals").
   * **Link**: Enter the URL where the item will direct users when clicked. This could be a page, product, collection, or any external link.
   * **Description (Optional)**: Provide a brief description of the item. This is useful for giving users more context about what they are clicking on.
