Post Category as a Menu Item

Last Updated March 2026

If your WordPress site has a blogroll you can add specific Categories to your Menu to highlight those posts.

For example: If your organization posts annual or monthly meeting minutes to your blog, you can add a Meetings link in your menu. When visitors click on the link they will be taken to a blogroll of just the meeting minutes in date order.

To do this: First, in the Categories section of your Post select the category you’d like to use as your Menu item. If you don’t see the appropriate category, create a new one by selecting Add Category. Don’t forget to Publish your update.  

If you’re an Editor, ask the Web team to add the category to your menu. If you have Administrator privileges, go to the Custom Menu Editor and under Add Menu Items select the categories dropdown. Choose the Category you’d like to make a Menu item and then click Add to Menu.

Once your Category is added to the menu you can change the order etc. Don’t forget to save your menu when you are done!
