  Hi there,

  You can create a drop-down menu by adding a custom menu to your site:

  Menus

  But menus are designed to list pages on your site, not to be used as an index of posts you publish. You’ll need to edit the menu to manually add each new post you publish, and eventually your site will break once the number of posts linked in your menu start causing page load problems on your site, so I would not recommend using a site menu in this way.

  If you want to create an index of your posts, rather use regular pages with the Archive or Display Posts shortcodes instead.

  Display Posts Shortcode
