An application can have multiple menus on the same side. In order to determine the menu to control, an <code>id</code> should be passed. In the example below, the menu with the <code>authenticated</code> id will be enabled, and the menu with the <code>unauthenticated</code> id will be disabled.
<pre><code>`&lt;**ion-menu** id="***authenticated***" side="left" [content]="mycontent"&gt; 
`&lt;**ion-header**\&gt; 
 &lt;**ion-toolbar**\&gt; 
 &lt;**ion-title**\&gt;Pages&lt;/**ion-title**\&gt; 
 &lt;/**ion-toolbar**\&gt; 
&lt;/**ion-header**\&gt; 

&lt;**ion-content**\&gt; 
 &lt;**ion-list**\&gt; 
 &lt;**button menuClose ion-item \*ngFor="let *p* of pages" (click)="openPage(*p*)"**\&gt; 
 {{***p***.**title**}} 
 &lt;/**button**\&gt; 
 &lt;/**ion-list**\&gt; 
&lt;/**ion-content**\&gt; 
`&lt;/**ion-menu**&gt;`
</code></pre><pre><code>`&lt;**ion-menu** id="***unauthenticated***" side="left" [content]="mycontent"&gt;put second menus code here&lt;/**ion-menu**&gt; 
&lt;**ion-nav** #mycontent [root]="rootPage"&gt;&lt;/**ion-nav**&gt; 
`
</code></pre><pre><code>//and call this method according to your logic 
enableAuthenticatedMenu() { 
 **this**.menuCtrl.enable(true, 'authenticated'); 
 **this**.menuCtrl.enable(false, 'unauthenticated'); 
}
</code></pre>Note: if an app only has one menu, there is no reason to pass an <code>id</code>.

An application can have multiple menus on the same side. In order to determine the menu to control, an `id` should be passed. In the example below, the menu with the `authenticated` id will be enabled, and the menu with the `unauthenticated` id will be disabled.

```
`<**ion-menu** id="***authenticated***" side="left" [content]="mycontent"> 
`<**ion-header**\> 
 <**ion-toolbar**\> 
 <**ion-title**\>Pages</**ion-title**\> 
 </**ion-toolbar**\> 
</**ion-header**\> 
 
<**ion-content**\> 
 <**ion-list**\> 
 <**button menuClose ion-item \*ngFor="let *p* of pages" (click)="openPage(*p*)"**\> 
 {{***p***.**title**}} 
 </**button**\> 
 </**ion-list**\> 
</**ion-content**\> 
`</**ion-menu**>`
```

```
`<**ion-menu** id="***unauthenticated***" side="left" [content]="mycontent">put second menus code here</**ion-menu**> 
<**ion-nav** #mycontent [root]="rootPage"></**ion-nav**> 
` 
```

```
//and call this method according to your logic 
enableAuthenticatedMenu() { 
 **this**.menuCtrl.enable(true, 'authenticated'); 
 **this**.menuCtrl.enable(false, 'unauthenticated'); 
}
```

Note: if an app only has one menu, there is no reason to pass an `id`.
