What it does
A regular WordPress menu works well for a short list of links, but larger sites often need more room. Stores with many product categories, corporate sites with several departments and content-heavy portals can end up with long dropdowns that are hard to scan. A mega menu solves this by opening a wider panel that can hold multiple columns, images and other content, so visitors can see more options at once and find their way faster.
The plugin requires Elementor and works by attaching Elementor templates to individual menu items. You design the dropdown content in Elementor as you would any other template, then assign it to a menu entry. From there you can set a custom width for each menu, change submenu alignment, pick icons and add colored badges to call out specific entries. Menus are responsive and retina ready, and the plugin uses clean JS and CSS files.
Best for
- Elementor sites that need multi-column mega menus
- Online stores with many product categories
- Corporate sites and content-heavy portals with deep navigation

Questions about HT Menu
Do I need Elementor to use this plugin?
Yes. The plugin requires Elementor, because the mega menu content is built from Elementor templates. You design the dropdown panel in Elementor and then assign that template to a menu item.
Can I put more than links inside a dropdown?
Yes. Since each dropdown can hold an Elementor template, you can build panels with multiple columns and interactive widgets. This makes it practical to group many categories or pages into one organized menu panel.
Will the menus work on mobile devices?
The menus are responsive and retina ready, so they adapt to different devices and screen resolutions. You can also adjust submenu positioning to suit various layouts and screen sizes.
Can I highlight certain menu items?
You can add icons from the built-in icon picker and create badges with custom background and text colors. Icon colors are adjustable too, which helps specific entries stand out in the menu.
