Check the menu, buttons and footer after a NabWP AI website build so visitors can reach the intended pages and complete the site's main action. Generated navigation is a starting structure and should be tested as an actual visitor journey.
IN THIS ARTICLE
01 Review the intended structure
List the approved pages and identify the homepage, contact destination and main conversion action. Compare that list with the pages created during the build. Note any pages retained from a previous site that still need a place in navigation or an appropriate redirect.
02 Test the links
- Open the built site in a logged-out browser.
- Follow every primary menu item and confirm the correct page and URL load.
- Open the mobile menu and verify its controls work with touch and keyboard.
- Test prominent buttons, including those inside repeated page sections.
- Review footer links, contact details and any social destinations.
- Correct broken, placeholder or inappropriate links through the normal WordPress editor or navigation controls.
Why do several buttons lead to Contact?
The builder can route design buttons without an assigned link to the Contact page or provided email address. That gives them a destination, but it does not prove that Contact is the correct business action for every button. Review each label and replace its destination where a product, booking or information page is more appropriate.
Does a menu item prove its page is ready?
No. A linked page can still contain placeholders, unsupported claims or an unconfigured form. Check the page content and the final action, not only the absence of a 404 error. The full build can publish pages during creation, so perform this review on an isolated site when necessary.
03 Check old links and search routes
If this replaces an existing website, test important old URLs and create relevant redirects where addresses changed. Check the homepage assignment and canonical domain so navigation does not mix staging and production addresses.
04 Verify the finished journey
Ask a reviewer to find a service, understand its next step and contact the business without using administrator knowledge. Confirm link text is descriptive and focus remains visible for keyboard users. Take a backup of the approved structure and repeat the link check after deployment, because domain changes and database synchronisation can affect stored destinations.
