# How to add the Featured Links menu in the TikiWiki

TikiWiki has the featured links module that is pre set to display links in a menu on your site. This menu can be added anywhere to your site. In this article, we will add the featured links menu module to the footer of your TikiWIki site.

## Steps to add the Featured Links menu to the footer

1. [**Log into TikiWiki**](/support/edu/tiki-wiki/login-tikiwiki/) and **click the Modules icon** in the Quick Admin bar.
2. [![Click Add Module TikiWiki](https://www.inmotionhosting.com/support/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/edu_tikiwiki_103_featured-links-menu_edit-modules-1a-add.gif)](/support/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/edu_tikiwiki_103_featured-links-menu_edit-modules-1a-add.gif) **Click Add Module**.
