Overview

Squarespace navigation folders go one level deep, and that ceiling arrives quickly: a site with several blogs, portfolio categories or service areas ends up flattening its structure into one crowded dropdown. Will Myers' Nested Menu Dropdowns plugin removes the ceiling by adding a second level of dropdown folders to your menu navigation, so folders can contain folders and your menu can finally mirror how your content is actually organised. Installation is copy-and-paste with a video, the plugin is automatically maintained as Squarespace changes, and licensing follows the usual Will Myers pattern: a single-site licence, or a multi-use licence covering unlimited websites and templates for sale.

FAQs

FAQs

What does the Nested Menu Dropdowns plugin do?
It adds a second level of dropdown folders to Squarespace navigation, so folders can contain folders and your menu can reflect deeper site structures.
Who needs nested dropdowns?
Sites whose content has real hierarchy: multiple blogs or portfolios, service areas containing specific services, or category structures that a single flat dropdown cannot express.
Should I choose this or a mega menu?
Nested dropdowns suit deep, tidy hierarchies; mega menus suit wide structures with lots of parallel options and visual content. If your menu problem is width rather than depth, compare the mega menu plugins we also list.
Is it hard to install?
No, it is copy-and-paste code with an installation video, and the plugin is automatically maintained to stay current with Squarespace changes.
What support is included?
Best-effort support for the first 60 days after purchase on universal technical issues. Compatibility with other custom code, especially other navigation modifications, is not guaranteed, so test.
How is it licensed?
A single-website licence, or a multi-use licence covering unlimited sites and Squarespace templates for sale. Both are one-time purchases.
