 * Hello,
 * I’m having trouble figuring out how to get sub-menus on my site, [http://www.PhilShepard.com](http://www.PhilShepard.com).
   This is a custom theme, but I did not create it. I had a web developer create
   it for me. I’ll state up front that I have very basic HTML skills. I’ve tried
   the usual stuff for creating a sub-menu like going into edit page and naming 
   a parent and also I’ve tried setting it up under the appearance – menu section
   by dragging the page to the slight right of the parent page. Neither of those
   work. When I do that it just puts the child page on the main menu bar as if it
   was a parent itself. I’m sure it has something to do with my theme being custom.
   I understand how to access the site in an FTP client and I can edit the code 
   of any file if I’m given the code that needs to be edited. I’m sure it’s an easy
   fix, I just don’t have the HTML knowledge. Can anyone help?
