Katika Joomla!, Menyu ni seti ya vitu vya menyu vinatumika kwa urambazaji wa wavuti. Kila kitu cha menyu kinafafanua URL kwa ukurasa moja katika wavuti wako na matayarisho kwa yaliomo (makala, majamii, maorodha, vitu vimetagiwa, na kadhalika) na mtindo (moduli, mpangilio) wa ukurasa huu. Kwa maongezo, kila menyu ina Aina ya Menyu itaonyeshwa katika Meneja wa Menyu; angalia Kuongeza menyu mpya. Kwa kweli, aina ya menyu itakuwa jina la kipekee au jina bandia linatumika kwa kutengeza URLs kwa kusomeka kibinafsi ikiwa URLs unaofaa kwa mashini ya kutafuta (SEF URLs) umewashwa. Vitu vya menyu vinaweza kuwa na vitu vya chini bila ya mpaka.

Creating menus is rather simple. From the Admin Menu, in the backend of your Joomla! site, you choose: Menus > Menu Manager > Add New Menu. On the opened to you Menu Manager: Add Menu page enter your menu title into the "Title *" field (mandatory), your menu type into the "Menu type *" field (mandatory) and, if you wish, your menu brief description into the "Description" field (optional). After that you can start adding new menu items to this new menu.

Any website can have more than one menu.

Menyu haitaonyeshwa moja kwa moja kwa ukurasa wowote. Unatakiwa utengeze moduli ya menyu kwa kuonyesha menyu kwa baadhi ya kurasa au kurasa zote. Kila menyu inaweza kuonyeshwa na moduli moja au nyingi (kwa njia hii utaweza kuonyehsa menyu hiohio kwa nafasi tofauti). Na pia unaweza kutengeza menyu zinazogawanyika.

There is even more control on when the menu should appear, by adjusting the settings of the menu module. So, you can set it to appear in all or just a few pages of your choice (assigning the module on menu items), or make it visible to all, or only specific user-groups (e.g. registered users).

It is also possible to create Split menus.

Menyu ambayo haionyeshwi kwa moduli yoyote kwa kawaida inaitwa menyu iliojificha. Mamenyu yaliojificha yanaweza kutumika kwa kutengeza URLs ambazo hazitaonekana kwa kurasa yoyote.

There is also a "Display in Menu" setting on the Link Type tab within each menu item that can be set to No, which will hide an individual menu item from being visible on the front end.
