 * Okay so I’ve done some research yet my problem is a little bit more demanding.
   I want to create a navbar drop-down menu using superfish, I have all the superfish
   files required.
 * It’s easy enough to do for page navigation but my theme has a custom navigation
   bar for categories.
    Since I don’t really know PHP code I’m hoping someone could
   help me out.
 * The code (from the header.php file) for the category navigation bar is shown 
   below.
 *     ```
       <div id="navbar">
       <ul>
       <?php
       $eece_global_showcats = get_option('eece_global_showcats');
       $eece_global_showcats_sortby = get_option('eece_global_showcats_sortby');
       $eece_global_showcats_order = get_option('eece_global_showcats_order');
   
       $eruby_cat_sort_db = array('name','ID','slug ','count','term_group');
       $eruby_cat_order_db = array('ASC','DESC');
       $addtionstr = '';
   
       if ($eece_global_showcats && is_numeric(str_replace(',','',$eece_global_showcats)) ) {
   
       if ($eece_global_showcats_order && is_numeric($eece_global_showcats_order) && $eece_global_showcats_order<2 && $eece_global_showcats_order>=0) { $addtionstr .= '&order='.$eruby_cat_order_db[$eece_global_showcats_order]; } else { $addtionstr .= ''; }
   
       if ($eece_global_showcats_sortby && is_numeric($eece_global_showcats_sortby) && $eece_global_showcats_sortby<5 && $eece_global_showcats_sortby>=0) { $addtionstr .= '&orderby='.$eruby_cat_sort_db[$eece_global_showcats_sortby]; } else { $addtionstr .= ''; }
   
       wp_list_categories('style=list&hierarchical=0&title_li=&include='.$eece_global_showcats.$addtionstr);
   
       } else {
       wp_list_categories('style=list&hierarchical=0&title_li=&number=9');
       }
       ?>
       </ul>
       </div>
       ```
   
 * What I want to do is show the sub categories when hovering over a category using
   superfish, sounds easy enough, but difficult if you don’t know PHP.
 * I can understand if I don’t get a reply for this but thanks in advance!
