Now, we’d like to describe other backend changes implemented by TemplateMonster Mega Menu Magento 2 Extension. Under Products -> Inventory -> Categories, you can find a category tree. It is possible to Include each category/subcategory to the mega menu. There is the Megamenu tab available for each category. It allows you include each category to a mega menu as well as specify its label and CSS class.

Next, you create section where all subcategories related to the parent category are listed. Each subcategory gets a column, where you can set column width, enter specific class, select a subcategory and a static block, add products, and view selected items.

This is not the most intuitive backend interface, but the TemplateMonster Mega Menu Magento 2 module proposes a great solution by allowing to edit the mega menu right on the category tree page. But what about the frontend appearance?
