Report content (issue description) its author

When I have this activated, I can’t seem to position in which “Nav Area” set by the theme that each navigation menu is connected to. And the Appearance > Menus function is taken out of my WP Control Panel. I must be able to use the Site Editor to position the menus in a Nav Area designated by the theme, like “Primary Nav Area” or “Secondary Nav Area.” But I guess I’m not seeing it and it isn’t described here?

Research direction

Review the linked Site Editor navigation article and the reported feedback about assigning menus to theme-defined navigation areas. First verify whether the documented workflow addresses this question, then update the article if needed so the behavior or limitation is clear. Done means the documentation accurately explains how navigation menus relate to available navigation areas.
