  I want to have something like this on the top of my website.

  

  This ribbon was done with the “classic” view.

  I’m using a different theme now (“matrioska”). I see the options below.

  

  But I don’t understand how to get the navigation bar to show up as a ribbon on my website. I need to turn something “on”, but I don’t know what it is.

  

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi @spencer3d2e441b8a,
  
  I understand that you are trying to add navigation buttons on your site which can be accomplished by adding a Navigation block.

  The Navigation block is typically added to your site’s templates, most commonly in the header or footer template part. To add a Navigation block, follow these steps:

  1. Visit your site’s dashboard.
  2. Navigate to Appearance → Editor.
  3. Click on the right side to start editing the homepage, or select the template or template part where you want the navigation menu to appear.
  4. Click the + block inserter and search for “navigation”.
  5. Click the Navigation block to add it to your site.
