    Hi. I really wish I could get the Genesis Simple Menus plugin to work in my News Pro theme. There was a post by Bader, and he says he worked it out, but he never said what worked.

    So.. If anyone can tell me how to set up simple menus, or how to get sub sub menus working (I can only have sub entries) then it will really be great.

    I just tried the Simple Menus plugin with the News Pro theme on my local environment and it works as expected. Create the menu you want and when you edit a page, look at the right side for the Secondary Nav drop down. Select the menu you want for that page.

    Hi Victor. I've tried that and it hasn't worked. I'll try it again and let you know. I've tried to put a menu on my Publications page. I make a menu called Publications as a secondary nav menu and then select it for the page. Maybe I should make the menu a Primary menu but select it as a secondary on the Publications page? Is this what you mean? Because I don't want the menu to show up anywhere else other than the publications page and to be where the primary one normally is. Or will this not work? Does the menu on the Publications page have to be located where the secondary menu would normally be located (in my case above the banner

    Is there anyways to relocate the special menus to a widget that can be place elsewhere?

    Don't assign the menu to the secondary nav area if you are using the Simple Menus plugin. Just create the menu and assign it at the page with the plugin.
