 * I have separate WordPress menus for each decade (1960s, 1970s etc). I want each
   decade to appear as a top level item in my primary navigation, with its corresponding
   decade menu appearing as the dropdown panel. How do I connect a separate WordPress
   menu to a specific mega menu panel item?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fstandard-max-mega-menu%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi cshinkin,
 * With the way you have it set up, your main menu would have the top level items(
   1960’s, 1970’s etc), for each of those you’d set the sub menu display mode to
   a mega menu, then within the mega menu builder add a Navigation Menu widget and
   select the corresponding menu.
 * You would have a lot more flexibility on how the sub menus displayed if you merged
   everything into a single menu structure, then Max Mega Menu would automatically
   handle showing the sub menu items (instead of needing to use a Navigation Menu
   widget).
 * Regards,
   Tom

 * Thanks for the prompt reply Tom. I have to rule out a single menu as the pages
   are over 300, one of the Decades pages is 140 so makes editing in WordPress quite
   a task if its one long dropdown. If there is a guide to your first suggestion
   that would help me as first time using Mega.

 * And once I add the Navigation Widget my sub menu items are in one column.
