• So, I’ve watched a video about menus, and I see that in the video, a drop-down appears when category pages were nested inside pages. Yet when I do that, I don’t get a drop down.

    Is there some extra code, such as js, that he added that I didn’t?

    A standard WordPress sub-menu only needs this CSS:

    ul ul {
     display: none;
    }
    
    li:hover ul {
     display: block;
    }

    To behave like a drop-down menu.

    Thanks for the quick response. Do I add that straight into my style.CSS?

    Are you creating your own theme?

    I’m converting a static page I created onto the site, yes.

    Is the theme your own creation?

    I’m not sure I follow. I’m not adding a new “theme,” I’m just converting code and FTP’ing pages I created.

    Okay, I can’t answer, “Do I add that straight into my style.CSS?” accurately then.

    How do I complain about moderator assistance?

    You can’t use WordPress without a theme – do you have one installed/active? Or where are you putting those pages?

    blank theme i guess? i’m pulling everything from my php files. i’m not sure how to answer this the way you want…

    Sorry, I’m not trying to be clueless, I’m just trying to get a picture of what you are doing. Do you have WordPress installed and working? Can you post a link to your site?
