Setting menu's to expanded doesn't work
Hello, I've got a site running Drupal 5.1, and I have a few menus that I'd like to be expanded. I go into Administer - Site Building - Menus, and set the menus I'd like to be expanded. But, when I view the areas of my site where those menus are, they don't show as being expanded. Any ideas why it might be doing this? - jody
Have you added sub menu items under the Heading menu? I didn't understand this at 1st either. I thought if I added a menu item that had stuff under it, it would show that in the expanded menu. I've found that isn't the case. Each part of the Menu had to be added individually. Or I at least haven't been able to find any other way to do it.

I guess I¹m not sure what you mean. ³Each part of the Menu had to be added individually.² I¹ve basically got this: Preschoolers - Bugs - Cats - Dinosaurs - Dogs - Friends - Seasons - Sports But, all that shows up is Preschoolers. Even though I have Preschoolers setup to be expanded. Is there something else I need to do to get those menu items to show? When I made them, I created the menu items by hand, and they point to taxonomy terms. Is that part of the problem? - jody On 3/2/07 3:19 PM, "Web Weaver" <webweaver64@gmail.com> wrote:

I'm also very new to this, but I think if the menu inks are taxonomy categories, they may not show up until there is some content associated with the terms. Try categorizing a test blog entry and see if that works. Jean Gazis On 3/2/07, Jody Cleveland <cleveland@winnefox.org> wrote:

Be sure that your theme supports the extended links. Some of the themes don't support them. Easy way to test: Change you sites theme and see how your links look in it. -- Corey Bordelon On 3/2/07, Jody Cleveland <cleveland@winnefox.org> wrote:
