Hi,
I prefer to first desing structure and then to fill that structure with content. So I have created "empty" menus - I have filled a path for every item pointing to future destination (for example "contact" and "contact/office" etc).
And now I don't know how to glue nodes to this menu. When I click on "create content > page" and then set a path to same destination as in menu item then it works with one exception, after clicking on this item in secondary menu, this sencondary menu do not show up (as opposite to adding nodes to menu within new page form).
What is the proper way to hook a new node to already created menu?

Replace temporary path with node address of page
There's a node address for every content you create. Copy this (administer >> content) and paste it into the path for the corresponding menu item you initially created.
Well, what I have done was
Well, what I have done was little opposite... first when I was creating a menu I was putting a path there, and later when creating a node I was putting that path there. I seems that drupal needs some time to reflect that in secondary menu, because after some time secondary menu start to appear. So either order to fill path is ok (in menu and then in node or first in node and then in menu), but one has to remember that in first case menu needs some time to refrect that change (some may call it a bug).
Thanks for help.
