## Dynamic navigation settings

You can personalize your customer's experience with your online store's navigation menu after they have taken a quiz. 

New customers who click the navigation are directed to your quiz, while return customers who have already completed the quiz are directed to their previous results, which are highlighted in the navigation.

In this section of the **Personalization** page you can click the drop-down arrow to access the following options:\
\
\- **Open quiz results in a popup**: Check this box to have the quiz results open in a new popup window if a customer accesses the quiz after completing it. \
**- Update the label**: Check the box to have the navigation menu change after a customer takes the quiz. You can customize the label name.
