Dhtml menu was good to me. But it seems not working with a number of modules after they installed. My latest experience was I have Taxonomy Menu, and DHTML installed, it was working fine as expected. After installing User Relationships it stop working, the Taxonomy menu containing many terms and sub terms were extending in full. My site uses multilingual so does the menu.

User Relationships 7.x-1.0-alpha4, and Privatemsg (7.x-1.3)

christopher james francis rodgers’s picture

I use DHTML Menu on all my sites,
and have had it working for all versions of Drupal 7
since Drupal 7 first came out,
although I do not have many other modules installed.

First of all, I use only the "Dev" version (7.x-1.x-dev 2011-Nov-10) [The year 2011]
and NOT the "Beta" version (7.x-1.0-beta1 2010-Nov-09 ) [The year 2010].

I have found that any-time, and every-time, I run the updates script
[d7-root]/update.php
as for example, after updating Drupal to a newer version,
the DHTML menus will not expand unless I clear the caches on page
"Configuration" > "Development: Performance"
by clicking the button "Clear all caches".

Note:
You should Always run the Update script after updating
to a newer version of Drupal 7, as for example,
from D7.21 to D7.22.

By the way:
It is NOT necessary for me to disable the
- Aggregate and compress CSS files.
- Aggregate JavaScript files.
for "Clear all caches" to get my DHTML Menus working again.

===

These are the settings I use on every site.

---

'Static navigation':
- "No Collapsing" (default).

'Other effects':
- 'When a menu opens': "Keep other menus open".
- 'When a menu closes': "Close all its sub-items, too".
- 'When a new page is loaded': 'Expand only the currently active path' (default).

===

Hope that helps.

Uh... I guess my recommendations worked for the original poster.

Cool. ...I guess.

Issue closed in assumption of 'resolved'.

Thank you Christopher, in my case, not only does the installation of User Relationship has some impact on DHTML Menu but some other installations. But I found a simple way to resolve it by disabling it and then enabling it again, every time the same issue happened. In most cases, it worked.
