@andrea - Thank you andrea. I think i just needed to learn more about 'how to use' this plugin. I learned that i could add multiple pageTree for a single Menu, that's what i wanted. It is working smooth right now. Great plugin!

Hi Arvind,

Try using the ‘Page’ menu item type instead of the ‘PageTree’ type to build your menu, and use the ‘Child of…’ option when adding children pages. That should do the trick!

Hi, Nice addon. However i have a question. How do i exclude the top page from showing. I exclude it from exclude drop down list but it does not work. Here’s what i m trying to do. I have Home page under which i have “About Us” page which in turn has two child pages. There’s another FAQ page under Home page. I want to show only “About Us” and “FAQ” in my vertical menu. Is this possible? I exclude Home from the list but it always start from Home. Please help.

Hi Chuck, I guess you are using the Superfish template. If so, you could see Question 2 in Superfish Questions & Answers. A way to facilitate coming back home from an external site could be to open the external site in a new window, so when the new window is closed your old window will be there.

Great SW.. thx. Have a couple of minor issues that I would appreciate your insight and if possible help on:
1. In some cases, I use the dropdown to go to external URL’s (which is easy with menubar). Question/issue is on the presentation layer:
a. In the dropdown, width is only a couple of words wide, so that if your Title for the URL is multiple words long, it becomes vertically large, and limits the visible number of selectable items visually. Is there a way to widen the frame of the drop down menu items?
b. The next question is not really your issue, but I would be interested in your insight. When my webpage links to an external url, it leave my website with no way back like a “HOME” page button.. (use back arrow). I tried iFrame (am using WordPress with PlatformPro), but can’t seem to make it work. Ideas?

Hi Todd,

Sorry but that feature is not available yet, I’ll add it to my to-do list.

Hi Enaut,

At the moment you can only exclude them manually in the menu item edit page.

Any way to convert the menu php code as a shortcode to insert into a page or post? I know of WP plug-ins that allow php execution but concerned about security. Thanks

Hi Andrea!
Congratulations for your MenuBar. I’m using it, and I had a question: How can I display only categories with posts? I mean, I have certain categories that still haven’t posts, and I’d like to hide from the menu.

Thanx!
