Quick access menu

Regional University Computing Center Kaiserslautern-Landau

A quick access menu makes it easier for the user to navigate a website, for example. Pages can be linked compactly so that the user can simply click through.

Further information:

The quick access is not inserted automatically, but manually. It can be placed anywhere using grid elements. It makes sense to link 3 to 5 pages. Please note that the quick access is not intended for linking pages of your business partners.

Reference to new function

Since the relaunch, there is a new type of quick access under the"Interactive" tab. This content element enables quick access by means of drop-down elements in a box. Further information can be found in the delta training.
