i've a node type "Gallery" and a menu title "Gallery" which shows all the available galleries with the help of views.
Now, when the user creates a new gallery, i want the name(title) of that gallery to add as a child element to the "Gallery" menu item..
is there any module for that?
thankx..
Module Auto Menu. Here is an excerpt from its project page:
... automatically generates menu entries on node creation/edition. Parent menu item can be specified on a per content type basis.
This module acts when the menu section of a node is left empty only. So, users can still organize menus manually. Moreover, default setting for content types is to not create menu items automatically.

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.

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 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 have following navigation structure, which i want to implement in wordpress:
(Home / About / news / Contact) are in top navigation, whereas all sub links are in sidebar.
How can i create this type of navigation in wordpress. i.e. How can i display first level navigation in header and second level navigation in sidebar.
Follow these steps:
First create a main Navigation to your site without child pages and
add it to the theme.
Then create a new menu with child menus only and save it.
Now goto widgets section and from there drag Custom Menu from left
side and add to your sidebar.
Then select your child menu and click save.
Thats all. :)

I found these plugins helpful:
Simple Section Navigation
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/simple-section-navigation/
It allowed me to create the side nav based on the hierarchy of the pages and their children.
I wanted a bit more control though because I didn't want some of the parents to have their own page ... just a heading for their children. So instead, I'm using this plugin (for the Genesis Framework).
Genesis Simple Sidebars
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/genesis-simple-sidebars/
This allows me to create as many sidebars as I want and add custom menus to those. I'm new to this, so maybe I'm taking a long route, but so far it seems to be doing what I want it to.
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!!!
I only want to show the pages that do not have parents, and link the other pages from their parent pages.
I want to have a simple main menu: Home | Pages | About | Contact
About 8 pages are linked from the Pages page. At the moment, the menu has 12 items, which deforms the layout pretty badly.
I have tried making the pages private, unpublished, and other options, but that doesn't seem to be the way to do it. Is there a way I can just have only parent pages linked in the main menu?
You can edit the menu (under the appearance tab in the dashboard). (you may need to add a new menu and assign it to the main navigation menu. It sounds like you have the defaulted menu set-up.
Once you've added a menu and assigned it to the main navigation, you can uncheck "automatically add top-level elements" or its equivalent, and add/remove menu items. You can also change their hierarchy (independent of actual page hierarchy).
It's all so easy these days. Just Go to appearance>menus>click the little triangle next to the listed page name>click remove> don't forget to save ... all done!
Maybe you didn't set up a custom menu yet. Set up a custom menu first with the desired pages / links. If it doesn't show on your site, check custom memus are enabled in your theme.. this will help you setting up a custom menu: http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-themes/how-to-add-custom-navigation-menus-in-wordpress-3-0-themes/
