Menu Builder Bug in Blog Pages – Needs Fixing
R
Richard Whirley
Problem Summary:
In the Blog Home and Blog Post page editors, the Navigation Menu Builder does not support linking to Website Pages—only Funnel Steps or external URLs—causing critical navigation issues.
Where the Problem Occurs:
- Blog Home Page Editor
- Blog Post Page Editor
What Happens Now:
When editing a top navigation menu (even a universal section), the “Go To” option only allows selecting:
- Funnel Steps
- External URLs
- Popups
There is no option to link to Website Pages. As a result, if you use a universal navigation menu in blog pages, all links pointing to Website Pages break.
What Should Happen Instead:
Menu Builder should support Website Pages in addition to Funnel Steps and external URLs—especially on blog pages, which naturally belong within websites, not funnels. Ideally, both Funnel Steps and Website Pages should be selectable.
Real-World Use Case:
Agencies and businesses often use universal menus across their site and blog. If those menus link to Website Pages, they completely break inside the Blog Home or Post pages, confusing visitors and breaking user flow.
Current Workaround:
The only workaround is duplicating the universal menu for blog pages and manually setting full URLs for each menu item. This is time-consuming and difficult to maintain—especially for agencies managing multiple sites.
Suggested Fix or Enhancement:
Allow the Menu Builder in Blog Home and Blog Post editors to access and link to Website Pages, just like in the Website Page editor. Ideally, support Funnel Steps and Website Pages to give full flexibility.

just went to setup a blog for a client for the first time, and was wildly disappointed with how janky the blog system is lol. Why in the heck is "a blog" an entire separate entity from the website? Whatever, I'll just grab the global header section/row with the menu and cta button etc. Wait what, they don't show up here? Annoying. Ok I'll make the menu from scratch again.... Wait, it only shows funnel pages and not website pages? Oh both this is half baked... 🤦♂️. Darn it! haha. Def needs another round oh irl building and presentation fixes.
Absolutely shocked how actual blog pages look... I'm hoping I'm missing something, because after setting up the "the blog" design and getting header with menu added, I was shocked to see clicking on a single post page it's entirely blank other than the post content lol. Like huh? This looks like ish! and I can't add a menu header to the blog page? I'm so confused this has lost me lol. Aye yie yie....

It seems like this idea is a subset of: https://ideas.gohighlevel.com/blog/p/breadcrumbs-in-blog-and-blog-post. If so, a faster way to get action is add clarification to that idea which is already approaching 50 votes instead of starting a new one.
