Foundrykit Menu
A plugin for Payload CMS that provides a flexible and customizable menu system.
Installation
pnpm add @foundrykit/menu-plugin About
The Foundrykit Menu Plugin for Payload CMS offers a comprehensive menu management system designed for the admin panel. Users can create and model nested navigation structures, fetching menus by slug and integrating them into the frontend without relying on Payload's admin UI context. Key features include support for multiple item types, dynamic mega menus, and a caching mechanism for improved performance. Configuration options allow users to set parameters such as the base URL for internal links, cache time-to-live, maximum nesting depth, and the collection relations for menu items. This flexibility supports various menu designs, including simple links and nested drop-downs. The plugin also provides server-side capabilities, such as a public API endpoint to retrieve menus and optional import/export functionality for managing menu data. Built-in hooks enhance the maintenance of menu data and its dynamic nature, making it suitable for diverse application needs.
