Question How To Have Dropdown Menu Show in Wordpress?
I have a website created with Wordpress. I originally had a different layout but contacted my designer because I felt the look was more "play" not professional. So she created a new layout and I LOVE IT, but I can not get the categories that are listed under the parent category to automatically show as a drop down menu.

I have searched this forum to see if anyone else has requested this, but I don't see it.

Basically if you go to my website www.brandyellen.com you will see the menu bar well there "should be" drop down menus under services, about us, and even contact us, however, they are not automatically showing on the site - I can see them in my dashboard pages area.

Is there a plugin I should use, or some css code? I am pretty good at coding - not advanced by any means but I do know how to "edit the current coding" if need be and walked through, as I did edit my header.php file on my own.

Looking forward to seeing if anyone can better assist me,
Brandy

When I go there, Brandy, I see two menu bars - one on top of the other.

They each have the same items, but the bottom one has smaller font and has no dropdown arrows.

The top menu bar does have dropdown arrows that work in Services and Contact Us (the About has a dropdown arrow, but nothing shows up in it). I can either click on the dropdown or hover over it - either way shows the options.

I'm using IE 7 right now - maybe that makes a difference to what you see.

Thanks Deb. I use Firefox and I guess my designer logged in and did some changes. I am a DIY'er kind of person so I didn't want to take up her time if I could figure it out but she was super fast and did it before me! LOL

I did ask her to take a peek at my site using IE, since her & I both use Firefox - need to make sure it looks okay in both browsers!

Thanks again,
Brandy

Brandy Ellen, I thought I had seen your site before but this is great, I love how you have redesigned. I use Firefox and IE and didn't see any problem with your menus but I am not wordpress familiar.
