Issues adding pages to menu

I'm following the elementor guide on how to create a Navigation menu from here: Elementor Help Center.

When I select all the pages and try to add to the menu, they are all added as "custom links" instead of pages. They are all listed under the pages sub-menu as depicted below.

This causes them not to be clickable on the website for navigation. What am I doing wrong?
