Drop Down Menu
Hipster - June 30, 2009 - 05:44
Hi,
I want to add drop down menu on the theme I"m using.
However when I look on the template there is no block or anything in that area, just the header.
What's the best to implement the dropdown for this.
Should I just try to find another theme with more regions or
can I easily add my own to put another div that will contain the drop down navigation. Also what is the good
menu that I can implement that uses taxonomy and be dynamic rather than java script that is manually needs to be updated.

are you sure the theme you are using doesn't support primary menus?
could it be that you have no primary menu items and that may be the reason why primary menu aren't showing as expected?
I"m don't think there is

There is no block or region just for header and columns.
Maybe I should use something that has more blocks.
I think I'm going to try Genesis one more time.
:(
It always sucks when you get stuck on the first step.

primary links at the top of a page, are not enabled by using a block in a region at the top of the page.
administer -> menus handles menus
when menu items are added to primary menus in administer -> menus those menus items will show in the primary links variable if provided by your theme. this is not a region
if you add a primary link in administer -> menus -> primary links and it does not show at the top of the page (automatically)
ensure primary link is enabled on the theme in adminsiter -> themes -> configure if they are enabled on the theme and you have added menu item to primary links and they still don't show
you should check your page.tpl.php for $primary_links, as the theme may not support them.
I have to check
Thank you VM
