Masthead Options
Mastheads are part of your site header. They contain branding and identity information. The top-level navigation menus are also part of your masthead.
Certain elements, such as the 51²è¹Ý logo and Explore 51²è¹Ý menu, are required and may not be changed. Other elements, such as your site-wide navigation menu and associated flyout menus, may be modified.
