In this section (menu bar) you can decide what elements will appear in
the main navigation bar of your website, you can see a menu bar example
in the picture 1. The menu bar items must be connected to pages or to
subchannels, so it is necessary to create a PAGE (see pages
section) or a SUBCHANNEL (see channels section)
before you create a menu bar item. It is also possible to create some
ulterior type of connection, a special link to website HOME PAGE, a special
link to this editor, that is a link to to the website ADMINISTRATION area
of the site (particularly that item is a link to the file admin.php,
naturally such area is a password protected area), a link to user.php
page (users login page) and more.

- PERSONALIZED (it points out that I want to connect the menu bar
iitem to a page);
- CHANNEL BLOCK (it points out that I want to connect the menu bar
item to a subchannel, see channels section);

other field correctly. To insert the new menu bar item so created,
you must click on Insert.
