Simple Customizations:


  • Replace the # symbols with your page link/URL
  • Replace the bolded black texts with Page Titles
  • To create a drop down menu inside a Main Menu link simple add to it a rel attribute like rel="ddsubmenu1. Change the drop down number accordingly.
  • Normal li and ul rules apply here to create sub menu and sub sub menu links.
  • Main links are mentioned first and drop down menu links are mentioned separately after the JavaScript call function.
  • To change the background color of the menu simply edit background:
  • #414141

Step 5. Save your widget and you are all done!

Visit your blogs to see the menu working just perfectly. Good Day Pal and Happy Blogging!!!
