I am using the 7x dev version and I can't get the dropdown menu in my main menu to work. I have everything enabled and expanded and I have looked everywhere for the solution and it's still not working (in any of my 3 browsers).

Can anyone help?

It looks like the superfish menus are not going to be incorporated directly into Fusion. Instead, they are recommending using the Superfish module (). See: http://drupal.org/node/1067150

And I will probably not incorporate it into Mix and Match either, but I may try to add some styling for the module in the theme's future releases. In the meantime, I can try to help you add styles to use the module's dropdown menus if you need assistance.

Version: 7.x-1.x-dev » 7.x-1.0

Hello,

I am stuck with this and it will be really deceiving if this cant be fix because the Mix and Match what i really need for my project! I want to use the Mix and Match because of its simplicity and flexibility! All required modules and base theme are installed and enabled. Also i noticed that the js folder in the theme's folder contains a text file in which, ""In 6.x version, included js file here for customizing superfish menus. That hasn't been added to Fusion yet, so will need to add later."" is written am not sure if it is this causing the problem.

I did everything correctly(i think),but nothing seems to be resolving this problem! I have Drupal 7 with Mix and Match 7.x-1.0. I made test on localhost with Acquia Drupal Stack and on VPS but in vain.

I will be really thankful if you could help me in making the sub-menu work.

Thank you.

Sorry - I need to remove that text from the theme. If you read post #1 in this thread, you'll see I mention that Fusion is not incorporating the superfish menus directly in the theme anymore. Instead they are recommending using the Superfish module, and I am doing the same. Did you install this module and try to use it?

I was unable to reply you earlier! Yes I did install it, like as said all required modules and base theme are installed. When using the superfish menu block its shows the drop-down but when I used the one integrated in the theme it doesn't! Also I tried the CTI Flex and here also the integrated menu is just showing the top level but when it comes to the drop-down nothing happens even if I put both main_menu and superfish 1 on the same block region. Can you suggest something to resolve the problem i am having..
Thank You

Right, that is working as expected. The dropdown is only in the superfish menu block, not in the one integrated in the theme. Although I'm not sure why you aren't seeing the dropdown with the superfish block in the other theme (CTI Flex). That may be an issue that needs to be posted in that theme's queue.

Is there some reason you do not want to use the menu as a block? There may be some additional styling that needs to be added. I'm hoping to get another D7 release out soon with some styles for this, but until then, I'm happy to help you out with setting up the CSS.

Oh i thought that it would work by its own. Because previously I was trying on the Acquia Marina and it behaved like this, I just needed to enable the superfish and the integrated menu would work as design!
I want to use the integrated menu because of the nice styling you did! And when i use the superfish menu it just doesn’t match because in the Mix and Match theme there is the background color in the main menu area which doesn't go along any variation of the superfish styles! And am still learning html and css so am not very good in styling yet! I will use the superfish block now. But I want to have it nicely styled like the menu integrated for the theme to look as awesome as you created it! Can you tell me what can I do to make the superfish block be similar as the integrated menu with one or all the color transition you created please?
Thank you for helping me :)

The following should be removed from the project page to avoid confusion.
Features provide by Fusion base theme:
Dropdown menus

or better yet provide some basic css to theme standard superfish menus.

This is some basic css to style menu 1 from suckerfish.. This is not perfect because I didn't inherit properly mix and match css and I stopped once I styled it.

#superfish-1 {
margin: 0
}

#superfish-1  li {
padding: 8px 12px;
}

#superfish-1  li a {
padding: 0;
border: none;
font-weight: bold;
}


sf-menu.sf-style-default {
margin: 0
}

.sf-menu.sf-style-default li li,  .sf-menu.sf-style-default li:hover, .sf-menu.sf-style-default li.sfHover, .sf-menu.sf-style-default a:focus, {
  background: #A51D1D url(../images/nav-bg-red.gif) top left repeat-x;
}

.sf-menu.sf-style-default li:hover, 
.sf-menu.sf-style-default li.sfHover, 
.sf-menu.sf-style-default a:focus, 
.sf-menu.sf-style-default a:hover, 
.sf-menu.sf-style-default a:active,
.sf-menu.sf-style-default li, 
.sf-menu.sf-style-default.sf-navbar {
  background: none;
}

.sf-menu.sf-style-default li li, .sf-menu.sf-style-default li li:hover{
  background: #A51D1D url(../images/nav-bg-red.gif) top left repeat-x;
}

.sf-menu.sf-style-default a {
border: none;
}
