    Hi @bangtanpurplearchive, a scrollbar on a submenu likely wouldn’t work well or consistently well on mobile devices, so while it may be possible on desktop with some clever CSS, I’d recommend against it.

    If your navigation system requires a lot of scrolling, have you considered having a simpler navigation up top, then setting up an index/table of contents type page? For example, you could show a “Content by Year” page and list all of your posts grouped by year, or all of the years which you then click through, etc.

    If you have your posts organized by category, you can link those from your menu or list your categories on an index page, too.

    If you’d like, let us know which menu item is concerning you the most and we can make a recommendation.
