 * Hello there,
 * I know that this is probably a repeat question but I can’t find a question which
   answers my dilemma.
 * I’m a newbie and I was happily editing my site using themes and the admin panel
   when I noticed I’m only getting one menu appear on my website when I need multiple
   ones.
 * I searched the forums here and they keep quoting code I need to change but for
   the life of me I have not got a clue where this code is to edit otherwise I would
   have happily edited it. 😛
 * I’m using Ipower as a webhost who has wordpress as an app. I haven’t installed
   anything to my PC which I thought the WordPress tutorial was telling me to do.
   I’m not a particularly slow person but I found that tutorial very hard to follow.
   I guess it was because of so much jargon in it.
 * Have I missed something vital that tells me where this code for my website is?
   I’m hoping its not hidden somewhere on my webhost because I can’t find code for
   my website there either.
 * Apologies for any of you out their for my total lack of experience and asking
   what I feel like is the most basic of questions.

 * Hi,
 * Could you please post the link to your site + let me know, where would you like
   the secondary menu to appear? Are you managing your menus through Appearance -
   > Menu ?
 * Thanks

 * You’ll find the website at –> [http://www.helenmcghee.co.uk](http://www.helenmcghee.co.uk)
 * I would like the menu to appear in the buttons rather than the menus at the top.
 * And yes I am editing through Appearance > Menus but everytime I add a new menu
   I can either have it on default or pick only one of the menus I have created.
   It’s a bit frustrating seen as the only help I can find about adding multiple
   menus quotes code and I don’t know where that is to edit it.

 * Thanks for the links WPyogi.
 * I had a trawl through those links. I can’t find anywhere where it tells me how
   to get multiple menus on the theme though.
 * I’m not using the premium theme. Does anyone know whether I can only put multiple
   menus on that? I haven’t noticed anywhere it has said anything to that effect.
 * I’m guessing it’s something to do with me though not the theme.

 * I just installed the theme on a test site and it DOES have two menus – under 
   Appearance > Menus see the box labeled “Theme Locations” – those are the two 
   places you can have a menu.
 * You need to first create a menu (in the box on the right side) – then select 
   that menu in the pull down under the Theme Locations for which place you want
   that menu to be.
 * Be sure that you are clicking save menu or add to menu after each action.
 * Does that address what you’re stuck on?

 * Ah! I see. I’m miss communicating. What I’m wanting to do is have multiple things
   in the menu. (I was thinking the stuff in the menu was a menu). Apologies for
   that!
 * Basically I’m wanting multiple buttons in a menu that take you to various places,
   but I can’t figure it out. The method I’m using is through _Appearance > Menus_
   but if you use the drop-down box to select a page to go in that menu you can 
   only get one of them on there. If you add one then save then do the same to add
   a second it replaces it.
 * Does that make any sense? I hope that makes it clearer.

 * No problem – it goes both ways 🙂 . Forums are a bit hard to use for things like
   this!
 * Once you select the menu for that Theme Location – then you add items from the
   boxes below on the left side – i.e. click add to menu – then they should appear
   on the right side box. Is that what you are doing? If so, there’s likely a problem
   with your site. In that case, try deactivating all your plugins to see if any
   are causing that to happen.

 * Eureka! I’ve worked it out know.
 * Your re-installing tip helped. Thank you!
