Menu With Drop Down

57 posts
Mon Feb 24, 14 2:34 PM CST
I need directions on how to create a drop down menu. I want the menu to say SENIORS and when you click on that it takes you to a page that has stacked galleries. Under the SENIOR menu, I want PRICING, WHAT TO WEAR, THE 411 and I want these to go to separate pages. I do not want these to be on the SENIOR gallery page. I am confused whether these are pages or categories and how to create the drop down menu!
Very frustrated,
Cindy

This is my question exactly~! I'm trying to do the same thing...have a drop down options from the main menu (Seniors) and then options to view the brochure or the guide.

I think I'm hung up on what is a page, what is a section, what is a category and what needs to be created and 'added' to the other.

Thank you.

In the screen shot, the highlighted ones are "Sections". Main categories. On the right of the screen are you "Pages" or Galleries.

If you have created a section that you have added pages for the brochure, guide, etc ... then in the dropdown option when editing the link, you would select pages.

I actually have a URL link that I want to post for my brochure and another URL link for the Guide. So do I need to make these links "Pages"...

I have created my Menu item called SENIORS, but I need a drop down with TWO options for the URL links.

Do I have to make the URL link 'pages' somehow?

Thank you. I'm slowly trying to understand this process. I am finding it not real intuitive.
Thanks Tim-

Are these links to pages outside of Sytist? If so, use the Custom Drop Down Menu Links option when editing the menu link in Design -> Menu Links

SO in the box I would list BOTH my links? Separated by a comma or anything?

(yes, the links are issuu links).

Please see my screen shot. What am I doing wrong?
When I click on the homepage menu nothing happens. The link is not live.

I don't see a screen shot, but make sure when editing the link, under Drop Down Menu, either Categories in section or Pages in section is checked. The custom drop down menu links will override those, but need to select one to enable it.

In the URL section, enter in / (see attached).

And in the links you added, you are missing the | separator in the second link between the link and link text.
