Is there a plug-in that improves the standard menu editor in Wordpress? For example I need to change the attributes "rel" and "class" for menu items not just the "title".
Its already there in WordPress. No external plugins required.
Goto Dashboard -> Appearance -> Menus
Click the screen Options button on the top left to see advanced options.
Now select the CSS classes and Link Relationship on Show
advanced menu properties.
Now 2 new boxes will appear for every menu. Just add your custom
class and rel there.
Thats all. Cheers!!!

How can I get this menu in Divi theme?:
Take these steps
Log in to your WordPress dashboard and go to Appearances > Menus. I assume you have a menu set up
I am assuming you have a menu that has a Menu item that is NOT a submenu let say it's called Features and under that you have submenus called Feature 1, Feature 2 etc.
Now in order to make your Megamenu you have to add a special CSS class to the main top tier link called “Features”. You can do that by clicking the screen options link of the top your page and making sure the CSS class option is checked.
Finally, you need to add a css class to the “Features” link you just created. Click the arrow on the right of the “Features” menu item to toggle the additional configuration options. Find the text box labeled CSS Classes and enter the class mega-menu
That's it basically. There is official documentation on how to do this
I would like to be able to create a navigation menu in WordPress in which the top-level nav items are not pages, but rather menu headings, which expand the sub menu when clicked.
The default WP menu behavior is that all menu items are links to content (pages, posts, etc), and that sub-items are viewed upon hover.
I'm looking for a way to make it work more like the menu behavior built into Twitter Bootstrap (and for the same usability reason).
I'm looking for a solution that either already exists as a plugin, or which I can build into a plugin, so that anyone can create a new menu like this in the WordPress menu editor.
checkout this tutorial :

If you dont want any custom html structure than you can simply add the classed to menu and for top level menu create a custom link with # as href.
I am a total beginner on the platform wordpress ... bought a theme, installed it, everything right, the menus appeared. But I would like to include a submenu, the parent menus in a theme and create a page to add.
How do I do that?
I'm lost.
Ok, so on your dashboard you see the main menu down the left hand side. The editor for menus is under Appearance -> Menus.
In there you should be able to easily structure your menus and sub-menus with a simple drag and drop editor, as long as your theme supports editable menus and sub-menus.
As for creating pages, you do that by going to Pages -> Add New. Once you have created a page it should show up in the menu editor to be added.
Hope that helps.

Defining a Menu
You must define a menu before you can add items to it.
Step 1
Login to the WordPress Dashboard.
From the 'Appearance' menu on the left-hand side of the Dashboard, select the 'Menus' option to bring up the Menu Editor.
Enter a name for your new menu in the Menu Name box
Click the Create Menu button.
Step 2
Adding Items to a Menu
The Screen Options allow you to choose which items you can use to add to a menu. Certain items, like Posts are hidden by default.
Locate the pane entitled Pages.
Within this pane, select the View All link to bring up a list of all the currently published Pages on your site.
Select the Pages that you want to add by clicking the checkbox next to each Page's title.
Click the Add to Menu button located at the bottom of this pane to add your selection(s) to the menu that you created in the previous step.

I know how to make meta boxes in pages and posts etc. But how do I add meta boxes to the menu page in the appearence -> menu page, for each menu item.
Add the moment, the menu items have to boxes: "Navigation Label" and "Titel Attribute". But I want to have another meta box for each menu item so the admin can type or choose a CSS class for, let's say, an icon.
The menu item "Home" should have an home icon, "About" an about icon and so on.
How do I accomplish that? Or is there an easy other way I don't know about?
This feature is built-in. Almost all screens have a Screen Options feature. In Appearence -> Menus, it has an advanced option CSS Classes:
