Having said that, let’s move on to the steps on How To Add Non-Clickable Menu Links In WordPress.

Step 1: Access the WordPress Dashboard

Start by accessing the WordPress dashboard of your website. Enter your login credentials and navigate to the administration area.

Step 2: Access the Menu Settings

In the WordPress dashboard, hover over “Appearance” in the sidebar and click on “Menus.” This will take you to the menu management screen.

Step 3: Expand the Custom Links Section

In the Menus screen, locate the “Custom Links” section and click on it to expand the options.

Step 4: Enter the Non-Clickable Link Details

Enter the URL for the non-clickable link in the “URL” field. This can be any valid URL or a placeholder like “#” or “javascript:void(0);”. In the “Link Text” field, enter the text you want to display for the non-clickable link.

Step 5: Add the Custom Link to the Menu

Click on the “Add to Menu” button to add the custom link to your menu. The non-clickable link will now appear under the “Menu Structure” section.

Step 6: Disable the Link

To make the link non-clickable, check the box next to the custom link that says “Disable Link.” This will prevent the link from being clickable when users interact with it.

Step 7: Repeat for Additional Links

Repeat the process for any other custom links you want to make non-clickable in your menu. Add the links, disable them, and customize their display text as needed.

Step 8: Save Your Changes

After adding and disabling the desired non-clickable links, click on the “Save Menu” button to save your changes. This will update the menu with the non-clickable links.

Step 9: Preview the Menu

Visit your website and refresh the page to see the updated menu. You will notice that the non-clickable links do not navigate to a new page, and the URL remains unchanged when clicked.
