- In the Manage administrative menu, navigate to Content (admin/content).
Find the About page, and click Edit in that row. The content editing form appears.

- Click Menu settings on the right to expand it.
- Check Provide a menu link for the menu options to appear.
Enter values from the table below:

Parent link
