HI,

Something strange is happening on the website: [https://www.originclear.com](https://www.originclear.com) the dropdown menu under news isn’t appearing? All is correctly configured on the Nav settings?

Strange, see images below?

Anyone got any idea why this isn’t working? It’s not a custom menu or template?

Thank you,

KK

Hey @Maykr

So it looks like you menu isn’t being built as illustrated in your screenshot.

 ![Screeenshot - 2020-02-05 at 9.16.48 AM.png](https://d2qpr2jzcazej7.cloudfront.net/original/3X/d/a/da5bc479c23f37b480a182bf2b8ff77e22617ec4.png)

I’m not sure if you were aware, but the child menu is not being added to the HTML structure. This is likely the or at least one of the issues.

I would check:

- that the module is using the correct menu
- the js/jQuery is added correctly
- double check with a test page that you child menus are being geneterated correctly (visually test without sytling or JS)

If those don’t prove fruitful I would document them and contact HS directly.

@Maykr

In your template is the menu module’s max levels set to 2 or more? If it’s set to one the child menus will not be generated.
