To access the Navigation Builder after the initial setup, select the Navigation (Adv) Block, go to the Block Settings, and click on the Open Navigation Builder button.
Add posts, pages, and other post types directly to the navigation using the left-hand tabs. Expand the appropriate post type and check the posts you wish to add to the navigation. Then click the Add to Menu button. This will pull in the titles and URLs of the selection and add it to Navigation Links within the navigation.
Use the Custom Link Button to add Custom Links to the Navigation.
