Add dropdown menus to site navigation

Dropdown menus come from Ghost navigation labels grouped by the Pro Fantasma theme. You edit labels in Ghost; the downloaded or published theme renders the submenu.

Requirements

  • Pro Fantasma project, downloaded as a ZIP or published to Ghost (the Pro navigation markup and scripts ship with that build).
  • Child items use a label that starts with - (hyphen and space).
  • Each child sits immediately after its parent in the Ghost navigation list.

Steps

  1. In Ghost Admin, open Navigation (primary navigation for the header).
  2. Add a parent row with the label visitors should see (no - prefix).
  3. Add child rows whose labels start with - , e.g. parent Topics and child - News.
  4. Keep children directly under their parent in list order.
  5. Install your Pro Fantasma theme on Ghost if it is not already active.

Footer navigation

Footer slots are separate in Ghost. Only add dropdown-style children where your theme’s footer expects them.

Troubleshooting

  • Child shows as a top-level link — Fix the - prefix and spacing; confirm order under the parent.
  • No dropdown on mobile — Confirm the Pro theme build is active; clear caches and retest.
