  2. Fill in all the fields with the proper information about the category you want to add and save it.

  3. Now that we have our new category we will need to assign it to the menu. In order to achieve it, go to the Modules tab and choose the Installed Modules section. There you will need to look up TM Mega Menu module. Once you find it, click on the Configure button on the right of it.

  4. You will see the option to add different items to your Menu in the TM Mega Menu configuration window. Click on the Menu tab and input the tab name. Note, that you need to configure it for all languages you use on the site.

    After you filled in the tab names for each language, activate the menu item right below.
