Hi! I'm working on creating some drop-down menus within my main menu and I've run into a snag that has me baffled. I installed the Nice Menus module and configured a block to work with the main menu (which I have located in the header) and I moved the block into the menu bar block section of my theme and I get two menus (one with the drop-down, one without). So, I thought the main menu must already be in the menu bar block, but it's not, it's actually disabled! So, I'm not sure why my main menu is even in the menu bar and I have no idea how to implement drop-downs with the menus the way they are. I'm thinking that my theme may be the problem, but if there is anything else I should try or if anyone else has successfully worked through something similar, I'd love some ideas!

Oh, and if you want to see the menu it's here: http://bitterrootpubliclibrary.org (and the main menu is at the top, but is currently disabled in the blocks menu).

Theme Config

Trista,

Have you tried turning off the display of the Main menu in your theme settings (http://bitterrootpubliclibrary.org/admin/appearance/settings)? It's probably not rendering as a block but rather as a function in your theme template files. Disabling at the theme setting level should prevent the "main" Main menu from appearing and let your Nice Menus block take over.

Yay!!
