Earnie,
when you say menu item name, do you mean what shows on the front end?
When I go to create a new menu item, I have 3 fields to fill in:
- title - description - path
So what should I avoid? The problem is that I'm using PathAuto so I have quite a few URL Aliases flying about.
profile/1 instead of node/6 (I used nodeprofile module) user/5 is default so that shouldn't be causing problems, but is /search shouldn't be a URL alias either and is causing problems /forum isn't causing problems (meaning I can put sub items under it and they show)
So while I accept aliases cause a problem, I can't see any pattern emerging. I even tried to use absolute URLs (http://www.mysite.com/search) instead of relative without any luck.

Quoting "Neil: esl-lounge.com" neil@esl-lounge.com:
Unfortunately, that had no effect at all.
One thing I noticed is that when I make the menu item expanded, the sub menu items suddenly appear and, of course, stay there whichever page I'm on....so the code is present to some extent.
When I uncheck the "Expanded" option, the behavior returns to that I've seen before of not showing any sub items.
I've seen this before. I forget exactly but check that your menu item name isn't also a URL alias or node name.
