I'd like to add a menu to the odoo site. I wanted to inject the new item directly into model.website, but I've noticed that it persists in the database and if I change the url, I have to raze everything before it takes. I read somewhere that I could do template inheritance, but I don't understand how it works. I've looked through articles without really understanding. I still have this error, but when I go to the browser inspector, I can see this class.

Error : "RPC_ERROR

Odoo Server Error

The above server error caused the following client error:

Have you tried to implement the new menu with studio?

Please share visit_veone/views/visit_veone_custom_menu.xml as this results in an error according to your post.

Hii,

Find the Correct Parent Template

The top menu is usually part of:

<template  id = "website.layout"  ... >

So you want to inherit from that.

Create Your XML View

Here's a working example that injects a link into the top menu bar:

<!-- File: visit_veone/views/visit_veone_custom_menu.xml --> 
<odoo>
     <template id = "visit_veone_menu_item"  inherit_id = "website.layout">
         <xpath expr = "//header//nav//ul[contains(@class, 'o_menu_sections')]"  position = "inside">
             <li  class = "nav-item">
                 <a  class = "nav-link"  href = "/my-custom-url" >Visit Page </a>
             </li>
         </xpath>
     </template>
 </ odoo >

This will add a new top menu link to /my-custom-url .

Include It in Your Manifest

Make sure visit_veone_custom_menu.xml is loaded in your __manifest__.py :

'data' : [
     'views/visit_veone_custom_menu.xml' ,
],

How to Avoid "Element Not Found" XPath Errors

Tips:

Inspect the rendered HTML in the browser , and search for the element (eg, ul.o_menu_sections ) to confirm it exists.
Do not guess IDs like top_menu unless you see them explicitly in the template. Odoo's website uses classes more than IDs.

i hope it is usefull
