How to add new Menu Areas in OJS

Add this in the theme:

$this->addMenuArea(array(‘MenuArea1’, ‘MenuArea2’));

Then override the template where you want to show the menu. For example header.tpl

Assign menu to variable

{capture assign=“menuVariable”}
{load_menu name=“MenuArea1” }
{load_menu name=“MenuArea2” }
{/capture}

Then just {$menuVariable}
