How do I go about enabling the menu that drops down when you hover the main menu? http://screencast.com/t/ANaXNTTwD

This is the “mega menu” setting on any menu item. When you edit your menu(s) in WordPress, make sure the dropdown for “Make this category a mega menu” is set to display the one you want.

Thanks for the response guys. I want to have the mega menu on my parent category but I have about 15 subcategories. Is there a way to fix this so its limited? http://i58.tinypic.com/2sb05yv.png @Lucian @TheMediumUTM

Maybe even having the subcategories in two columns (http://i62.tinypic.com/a9lq1x.png). But regardless, how would I be able to organize it so that the subcategories can either limit or all display?

–OR–

Being able to select the 5 that will display as subcategory? Because currently I see that it goes in alphabetical order that will display.

Hi,

You mega menu appears like this because you use the “subcategories” as sub-items of that “Funny” category, make sure you have this menu items added as subcategories of the funny category like this: http://screencast.com/t/yVjDPh1L and use this method to set the limit of mega menu subcategories, your result should be like this: http://screencast.com/t/ZrrcCjmkg

Great, the other post you linked worked for the amount of submenus to be added. As for the order of them, is there a way to specify a certain order besides alphabetical? Because as of now, I only want to display about 7 out of the 15 subcategories but its only pulling the top alphabetical ones.

Also, since the amount of subcategories expands vertically, is there a way to add 2 rows of the preview posts aside the category names? http://screencast.com/t/4tn4OZnWQRyn

Hi,

Change this value to get 8 posts: http://screencast.com/t/oI1TX4M8L9gl

Use this css also to get the posts to stay on line:

.td_mod_mega_menu .entry-title {
max-height: 20px !important;
}

Regarding the order unfortunately you can’t set a sort order for subcategories, you can though set as subcategories of that category only those you want to show in the menu.

Thanks
