A ready-made menu for easy navigation will appear in the community as a carousel with active buttons. For an online store, you can add product categories to the menu, and for a restaurant, links to menu items. Also in this block, you can often find links to promotions and special offers, reviews, FAQ, payment and delivery terms.

Installing widgets
Widgets are a welcome section in the community, located under the main information and menu, before the posts on the wall. In this block, you can publish a personalized greeting, for example, "Hello, Alexander! Catch great deals," and also tell customers about current promotions, great discounts, and new products. Widgets are visible from the desktop and mobile versions of the site.
