I want the heading menu item to provide the sub-menu drop downs, but don’t want the menu item to direct to the ‘page’ that created the item.

See VAOS.org, ‘calendar of events, Shows and Projects, Newsletters. In each case the primary menu item should simple unfold the submenu and not be a link itself.

Hi @Theodore,
You can add dummy links to menu. You will need to restructure your menu a bit for this. Goto “Appearance=> Menus” And follow following steps:
– In Edit Menus Tab, Select the menu you want to edit(In this case your primary menu)
– While editing your menu, go to the Custom Links box on the left sidebar. Type in # as address for URL and the Text of your Dummy menu item(For this case: First: Calendar of events, Second: Shows and Projects, Third: Newsletters. You will need to do it thrice) where it says ‘Link text’
– Click Add To Menu and the menu item will appear at the bottom of current menu
– Drag your new link over to your menu and place it where you want it.
– Move your child menu items underneath the menu item you just created so that they become a dropdown menu
– Save your menu and check your site

Hope this helps. Let me know how it goes.

Thanks

Solved. Once I had the # in place of the url reference all was OK. Is that a standard, or internal to Catch-Evolution…

Hi @Theodore,
This is the standard for WordPress. Not internal to Catch-Evolution.
