How do I put a folder within a folder in the navigation?

Hi @PMDesigner ,

It's not possible - Squarespace only allows you to have one folder (rather than nesting them within each-other). It CAN be done using the Developer Mode; but needs to be configured in the template files.

We have explained how we achieved this here:https://www.dcodegroup.com/blog/multi-level-menu-in-squarespace

Feel free to reach out if you need assistance with this.

Thanks,AndrewDCODE GROUP

@PMDesigner I haven't tried this myself but it looks promising. This is what I found. https://5help.squarespace.com/hc/en-us/articles/205632327-Creating-drop-down-navigation-menus

Hi @egreen118 ,

I think @PMDesigner was asking how you add a folder within a folder - which is not possible. The link provided shows you how to add a drop-down (but not a drop-down within a drop-down, etc).

Note: This URL refers to Squarespace V5 - the current Squarespace version is 7.

Hey thanks for the response! I am very glad that you at least answered me.

I may try doing this in developer mode. I do want to say, this is something very simple and Squarespace should make it easy to do. I will see if my client can part ways with their menu style.

Either way, thanks for the link and the info.

Squarepace does not allow you to nest folders. There are some third party work arounds.

No worries - let me know if you get stuck, happy to help further directly if we can.

The thing about Squarespace is that it does what it does well - but outside that, it can be fairly inflexible.

Because it comes with native Templates, the configuration is fairly limited. Navigation, Sub Navigation and Sub-Sub-Navigation simply have never been part of the off-the-shelf templates and as such are not supported. To get this to work you not only have to change the configuration of the system; you also have to change the templates - which is unlikely to be supported for some time.
