This was probably the most frustrating thing for me to figure out when I
first started my blog. It's actually really easy. So without further ado –
STEP 1
In your Blogger Dashboard go to the Overview Screen and
click on the “Pages” link on the left side of the screen.
STEP 2
Your Pages Screen should now be up. Click the “New Page” button. IMPORTANT: Don't click the little "Compose/pencil" button at the top of the screen; this will create a "Post" not a "Page."
STEP 3
The screen for creating a Page looks a lot like the screen
for creating a Post. IMPORTANT: Give the Page the title that you want to see as
a Tab in your menu bar. When you are finished writing up the body of the Page,
hit “Publish.”
STEP 4
You should now be back at the Pages Screen and your new Page
should be listed. Now click the “Layout” link on the left side of the screen.
STEP 5
Now you should see the screen for your blog layout. Click
the “Add a Gadget” in the horizontal space below the Header.
STEP 6
A Gadget menu will pop up. Scroll down until you see the
option for “Pages” and then click on the plus sign.
STEP 7
A Configure Page List will pop up. You should see a list of
the Page/s you created earlier. Check all that you want to have shown as Tabs
in your menu bar. NOTE: I leave the title blank because I don’t think a menu
bar really needs a title. Click “Save.”
STEP 8
After you click save you will see your Layout screen again.
You will now see a horizontal “Pages” box where the “Add a Gadget” box used to
be. IMPORTANT: At this point make sure that you click the “Save Arrangement”
button! I have forgotten this step before and lost a lot of work, yikes!
STEP 9
View your blog and see your beautiful new Menu Bar!!!!!
