# Top Bar

The Top Bar is an optional feature that can be activated via **Appearance** -> **Customize** -> **Header** by enabling the **Top Bar** option and then clicking on it to view the options. 

It provides an additional navigation area where you can place extra links, text, buttons or other elements as described here:

List of supported header elements
{% endembed %}

The structure of this navigation row is straightforward. It offers two rows, allowing you to distribute your content between the left and right sides or use a single row to center the content.

After adding an element, the edit dialog will automatically appear, allowing you to adjust the options and attributes of that specific header element. Use the above link to refer to the documentation of each element.
