Using a menu as a submenu

    On my site, I have a two level menu structure. On some pages, I would like to include a widget with a menu of all the other pages in that top level menu item. I know I can create a master two level menu and then a second menu with just the sub-items and do it that way, but I would rather just create the sub menu once, and have the master main menu link use that as the sub menu.

    There seems to be a plugin called Navception that used to do this, but it hasn’t been updated in a long time and the reviews say it doesn’t work anymore.

    Any thoughts? Is there a current plugin that will do this? I think this would make a great feature enhancement to the base WordPress software.

    Thanks

    Please identify exactly which theme you are using and then post in that theme’s dedicated forum via its page in the Theme Repository.

    I am using the Travilify theme, but I don’t see how this is theme related.

    In constructing a menu, one can add pages, posts, links and categories as menu items. I am asking for the ability to add another menu as a menu item. This is generic functionality, not specific to a theme, isn’t it?

    Thanks

    If know you said you’d rather create one menu, but what I found requires you to create two, sorry if that is a dealbreaker. Check out this plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/page-specific-menu-items/

    Only downside I see is that the plugin hasn’t been updated in a long time, but if you have some time to test it, I recommend checking it out.
