Dear Sir/Madam,

I want to make a standard header including the logo, menu and custom content by using the content template, I want to reapply this content template to other layout design.

In this standard header, it contains the site logo, menu and custom icon, how can I insert the WordPress menu into the content template?

Refer to attached screenshots, I cannot only divide the header row into 3 parts and insert the menu cell but it can't easily apply the content template to another layout.

Please advise how I can do.

Best regards,

Kelvin.

It sounds like you want to insert a Menu into a Content Template. There is not a good way to do that in Layouts. Can you use a parent / child Layout system instead of adding the Menu to the Content Template? This would let you reuse the same header design in multiple Layouts.
