3. Choose where the link opens

Set Link Type to Internal page and choose Page, Site section and choose Route, or External URL and enter the full address in Url. Built-in section and page links follow the visitor’s language. On a templated website, Internal page does not list pages you added with Create New: link to one with External URL and its full address, which always opens that language.

Filter (optional) adds a results filter without the leading ?; leave it empty for a plain link. Clearing every menu item can restore the original menu.
