 * Could not find a similar thread on this issue. When I add a sub-item and drag
   it over under the item I want to have a drop-down menu, I click SAVE and it goes
   back to the left as a Menu item. Has this issue been solved yet? Thanks

 * Hi there, custom menus are a core WordPress feature, and not specific to any 
   theme, so this likely isn’t related to Coraline.
 * To rule out Coraline as the cause, you could try switching to a default theme
   like Twenty Fourteen or Twenty Thirteen and see if your custom menus work as 
   expected. You may need to reset your widget and other theme-specific settings
   afterwards, so you might want to make a note of them.
 * Another troubleshooting technique is to try deactivating all your plugins. Do
   the menus work? If they do, turn the plugins back on one-by-one to find the conflict.
 * One more idea: have you tried a different browser? If it happens only in one 
   web browser (like Firefox or Chrome) then try deactivating all of that browsers
   add-ons or extensions. If the problem goes away, then you know an add-on is to
   blame and you can try turning them back on one by one to determine which one 
   is at fault.
 * Let me know how it goes.

 * When I add a sub-item and drag it over under the item I want to have a drop-down
   menu, I click SAVE and it goes back to the left as a Menu item. The menu items
   not updated still work correctly.

 * ABOUT works correctly, as it has not been updated in 6 months. However Hindu &
   Bingo should have Parent CURRENT OFFERINGS.
    (these were created today).
 * I have all plug-ins turned off, tried an alternate theme and multiple browsers.
   This is so frustrating!!
 * Any ideas?

 * Hi bigzigkc – this forum is for help with the Coraline theme.
 * I see you’ve already posted in the general Troubleshooting forum, hopefully someone
   will chime in there with other ideas.
