there is no save option in menu locations after I change it
You do not need to change anything there, so there is nothing to save.
You just need to copy the PHP function for the Primary menu location and paste it into your header.php file.
that is where I took your instructions to mean. Where do you mean primary menu location then?
Like this:

that is where I was doing it, how do I get it to save
Hi Clare,
You do not need to save it there. You need to copy the PHP code, then paste it into your themes header.php file (the same file you were editing a few posts back).
If you are still stuck please contact us through https://www.megamenu.com/support/ (use WPSupport as the licence key and include a link to this topic).

If I refresh it, the code goes back to how it was, which is why I thought it should save somehow. The same code is in both parts but not making a difference to the way it displays.

If I go out and back in it shows as before I edited it.
You should not be editing or changing that code.
Just refresh the page, copy the PHP function code (do not change it).
Then go to Appearance > Editor. Select the themes header.php file and paste the code you copied.

I see. Now I have this which does have the dropdown options.
Yes. It is behaving as I would expect it to now.
You’ll need to go to Mega Menu > Menu Themes and update the menu theme so it matches your theme (pink background etc).
It looks like you will also need to disable the ‘add search to menu’ plugin.

@megamenu I am not sure why you are suggesting to disable ‘add search to menu’ plugin here but if this is because it is displaying on the new line on navigation menu then this is because the theme doesn’t style it properly.
You can style it by adding the below CSS code in the Custom CSS option of Ivory Search plugin settings on the path Ivory Search -> Settings -> Settings
#mega-menu-primary li.is-menu {
display: inline-block;
}
#mega-menu-primary li.is-menu button.search-submit {
display: none;
}
If you have more questions about ‘add search to menu’ ( Ivory Search ) plugin then you can ask it in the below support forum.

thanks very much. Can’t get the home part to go pink as it is a custom link rather than regular page. Fresh forum post?
