In addition to articles about Menu Overlay, this article will be looking at the steps to add a menu entry to the side menu. You can access it via **Menu Settings** (**Plugin Manager > Menu > Side Menu**) as well as via the **Active Plugin** (**Active Plugins** \> **Side Menu**). 

### The following are the steps on how to add a menu entry to the side menu?
