How to enable dropdown menus
-
Admin
Dropdown menu is already enabled by default. If you don’t set a Custom Menu using the WordPress’ Custom Menu function, the menu will display the pages as the menu items and their children will be the dropdown menu items.
Just to clarify, is this right? The only way to get drop-down menus is to avoid setting any location in the dashboard section that reads:
“Your theme supports 2 menus. Select which menu appears in each location.
Header Menu
Secondary Menu”
When I have tried various combinations of single and double menus, I seem to lose the dropdown facility. In fact, I did not know dropdowns were possible because I just assumed I had to specify a location as told – I discovered them by accident when I installed a child theme.
Basically, the dashboard is giving bad advice in its instructions to specify a location. I guess this is a problem with the dashboard itself and can’t be fixed at the theme level? Might be worth adding a warning to the theme’s documentation.
Cheers,
Craig.
