I have created a menu in admin/build/menu, when i go in and create a panel page, under menu settings i click on 'normal menu entry' enter some text for the menu title and choose my menu i have just made previously. When i am finished adding content to the panel page i save it and go check the menu, there appears to be no extra link in there for the panel page.

I have the path of the panel set to user/%user/path/path would this be the reason why? because i am using a dynamic path? any workarounds for this? i could use the 'me' module, to create a menu item which has user/me/path/path which would work, but that module is giving me some grief and seems a little buggy at the moment =(

ah yes, the dynamic path is indeed the reason. Drupal's functionality to allow this is not quite flexible enough, and I haven't figured out a way to be able to make Panels even support it. :/

Resetting this to a feature request. I've come up with a hack that might let it work. Not sure yet.

Any progress on this? I am having no luck adding menus to my primary links due to this issue.

I am having the same problem

I tried creating a menu with panels with a normal menu setting. It does not show up in Drupal although it does show up in my database.

Here is my url
mypanel/%user/something

if this were a view, it would only let me do a tab and not a normal menu item.

I tried not setting up a menu in the panel but adding a url to menu.

I tried mypanel/me/something but it gave me an error that the path was invalid. I have the 'me' module installed.

Using the me module does not seem to work for panels specifically.

Just FYI.

I am getting this same issue with 6.3-beta 4 but I am not using dynamic paths.
I add a normal menu item to my Primary links and when I update and save, the menu item does not appear in primary links.

I have not fully explored this option yet.

Woot! I got something figured out for the user:uid argument. Nothing else can, though custom arguments can, if they like.

I´m having the same problem with menu items of type /content/destination/%tid they dont show in Primary Links. I´m not using arguments for users, but for term Id.

So I see the bug is fixed, but where?

I too seem to be having the same issue here, I would appreciate it if any one can give me insight into a solution for this.

Thanks in advance.
