Hello everyone,

I am a new Hubspot user seeking assistance. We are in need of customized drop-down buttons for the header bar of our Knowledge base, similar to the reference image provided. However, I have searched the native tool and could not find any options. Could anyone kindly provide guidance on how to achieve this? Thank you.

Hey @NUrmi,

Unfortunately the short answer is that at the moment you can’t! That level of customisation is not available within the tool. You are limited to what options are surfaced in the UI. The only “workaround” I can think of is to include them within the footer. If you customise the knowledge base template and select “Global footer” it allows you to add “Custom text links”:

The same functionality is not available when we attempt to conifgure the “Navigation Bar”. We’re limited to setting up:

- Company logo and specifying a URL it links to
- A text link back to your company website
- A support form to allow inbound tickets to be created

Hello @NUrmi!  
One option you have is to create a custom global module that you will use as your site navigation.

[Here’s the documentation](https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/cms/building-blocks/modules/files) for custom modules.  
You can fully customize a module as per your desire, the sky is the limit! 😄 Maybe create a group of variables that will include link and text and multiply it as many times as links you want to have, or make a group inside a group so you can enable dropdown. There are a lot of options and ways to handle this using custom modules.

Hey @albertsg,

Unfortunately the knowledge base component of the Service Hub doesn’t support custom modules in the same way that website and landing pages do. 🙁 We’re only able to work with the pre-defined templates out of the box and work with the limited filters relating to the parts within them.
