# Navigation Bar Block

*Article Topics:* [*Blocks*](https://docs.toomuchmedia.com/getting-started/common-topics/blocks)*,* [*Design*](https://docs.toomuchmedia.com/getting-started/common-topics/design)

## Overview

The Navigation Bar Block adds a horizontal navigation bar to a page, helping visitors easily move through your site. It works together with your **Theme's Menu Settings,** where the actual navigation links are configured. 

While the Navigation Bar Block controls the visual layout of the navigation, the Theme's Menu Settings define the actual menu items, such as links to CMS pages, static URLs, or the join form. 

For a full breakdown of how to manage a Theme's Menus with Navigation Blocks, check out our [Menus & Navigation](https://docs.toomuchmedia.com/content-management/member-areas-and-tours/themes/menus-and-navigation) article.

## Navigation Bar Settings

### Design Tab

The Design tab provides settings for controlling the look and behavior of the navigation bar.&#x20;

Under the **Navigation Layout** section, you can choose from several layout types:

* Display just a logo
* Display a logo and a single menu
* Display two menus with or without a logo&#x20;

Once you've selected a layout that includes the addition of **menu items,** you'll also see options to:

* Choose which menu item within your theme to display
* Set the alignment of the menu item, whether that is left, center, or right.

These menus are configured in your Theme's [Menu](https://docs.toomuchmedia.com/content-management/member-areas-and-tours/themes/..#menus) tab. Any changes made in the Menu tab, like link order or destination, will automatically be adjusted on every block that uses that menu.

The **Header Logo** section allows you to:

* Enter a URL for your logo image.
* Set the page destination once a visitor clicks the logo.&#x20;

This is especially useful if you would like the logo to act as a link to the landing page.

The **Mobile Setup** section lets you control how the navigation bar behaves on smaller screens. You can set the behavior of the navigation bar and the minimum screen size in pixels that the behavior will take place on.

## Menus & Navigation

As mentioned above, the Navigation List Block only controls the design and layout of the block, the links themselves that appear within the block are controlled by a Theme's Menu settings.&#x20;
