How do I add a link from the home page that goes to a new page with a different menu?
Example: from home page, click on 'Sales Department' menu link, which goes to the Sales Department page. This shows a new menu with ten new menu items on the Sales Department Page.
I am able to create menus, menu items, blocks and pages but unsure how to build a multi-menu structure as described above.
Menus, by default, have a UI presence in the form of a block. Within each block, you can specify which pages it will or will not show. This will give you the appearance of having content/page specific menus.
For instance, menu1 will only show on /home. Within menu1 there is a link to a page called /contact. On /contact, there is another menu (menu2) with links /contact/email and /contact/phone. For the menu1 block, the specified pages are / and /home. For the menu2 block, the specified pages are /contact and /contact/*.
Add menus in blocks and specify in which page each menu should be visible. Look in the block setting properties: you can add the pages there.
After a bit of playing around, this is what worked for me:
Create a new page called "Human Resources Page".
Link to parent item "Navigation Page".
Enter a menu link title "Human Resources Page" (otherwise it will not appear in menu).
Create a new menu called "Human Resources Menu" (human-resources-menu)
Show block on specific pages: <front>.
Add menu item called "Organization Chart".
Attach to parent menu "Human Resources Menu".
In blocks, assign "Human Resources Menu" to "Right Sidebar"
Set "Page specific visibility settings" to hr*.

One part in my main menu (primary) should show submenus which links to different sections within a static site. So for example I have the main menu point "About us". When clicked the dropdown contains: "Team", "Resposibility", "Jobs"…
But All these subpoints in the dropdown should not link to different sites, but to different sections within the one site "About us".
It's like a one page functionality within a WP-Theme. But I need to customize this functionality.
I have no idea how to set up this in the menu section. (Because I am not dealing with different sites.)
I can imagine, that I could use a single page template and add id to the h2 tags - as anchors to link to from the main menu. But I don't know, how to register this and how to set up this in the menu bar.
(My template does not offer one page functionality. I just want this functionality only for one menu section.)
I am maintaining a wordpress page which is using devdmbootstrap3, and has a navigation bar which has 5 different menu items on it. There is a page name "Our Team" and when inspect the element, it has "post-type-archive post-type-archive-team" and I guess this page is behaving as a post-page, on the other hand there is a main "New & Articles" page which is the main posts page( it was chosen as a Posts Page on static front page). When I click on "Our Team" on navigation bar, it jumps on News & Article first, I made a fix with Jquery with removing all those div classes that I mentioned above and fed regular page features but i don't think that is a good practice, and it seems like it is jumping on news & article menu item first then appears on our team menu item.
It is acting like a child menu of news&articles page,.
What i tried so far is:
1- I checked Admin>Pages>Our team page if it has a parent page or not
2- Made a Jquery removeClass and addClass to give a regular page behaviors
3-Disabled plugins and tried one by one if there is any conflict.
For your information, this is custom wordpress page.
Did anyone have the same issue that can lead me a good, long term solution? Thanks for your time and attention.
I am new to Drupal. I am trying to make a website where the menu has child items. eg when I click on "Places" it should drop down a menu with child items like "INDIA","USA","CHINA" etc. For that I added a content(basic page) Places with menu link name "Places". Again added content "INDIA",menu linnk title "INDIA" with parent menu selected as "Places". If I am currently selecting "Places" it works preefectly fine. But if I am in Home or other menu item, selecting "Places" does not appear the drop down. I tried it in two/three themes( all free) , same problem.
Try using superfish menu. Since you are new to Drupal, I would advise you to search first on Drupal.org website for modules.
I'm just getting started with WordPress and I need some help creating a menu. I'm using WordPress 3.1 with the Suffusion theme.
I've got a dropdown menu functioning. I created a category. Let's call it "My Pages". I want to list the pages in my site (not posts) under this category. In the Menu section of WP, I dragged the required pages and placed them under "My Pages". I indented them. I activated the menu. The menu appears, and I can use the dropdown to select the page I want.
The problem is that if I click the heading, "My Pages", then I get "Not Found. Sorry, but you are looking for something that isn't here." How do I solve this problem? I don't want the menu heading to open its own page. I simply want it to be the heading for the dropdown menu.
Thank you.

Okay, I figured it out.
1) In Suffusion Options --> Other Graphical Elements --> Main Navigation Bar --> Pages in Navigation Bar --> "Pages" Title:
I set it to "My Pages".
2) Pages in Navigation Bar - All or Selected:
Checkmarked Include selections from the next option
3) Select pages to include/exclude in Navigation Bar:
Checkmarked the appropriate pages.
4) Clicked Save Page 'Main Navigation Bar'
5) In order to get the dropdown menu to display the pages in the correct order, edit each page and under Page Attributes input a number under Order. (I thought that Order only affected the horizontal positioning of tabs in the menu. In the dropdown menu it changes the vertical position).
The Drupal's main admin page contains many links grouped by different purposes.
By default there are following sections: Content management, Site building, Site configuration, User management, Reports
Now I'm using Rootcandy admin theme and want to move all these annoying links into sliding panel which is collapsed by default.
So the question is:
how to split all these links by blocks? I'd like to get "Content management", "Site building", "Site configuration", "User management", "Reports" blocks contaning all related links.
Thanks!
Use the Menu block module. Once enabled, go to the Block Administration page. For each block you want to create, click the Add menu block tab. Most of the default options will suit your use case: just set the Parent Item -> Menu to Navigation and Parent Item -> Item to the menu you want to create.
