Hello,
Can we create submenus in Moodle?
If yes can someone help me out with how to create them?
Hi,
sure you can, what kind of submenus did you have in mind and where do you want to use them? You'd have to do it programmatically though.
If you want tabs with subtabs there are pages in moodle (e.g. the profile page, database activity) that use subtabs. You could look at the code for those pages to see how it works.
For a horizontal menu system like the one you see here on moodle.org you could have a look in the themes database
Cheers,
Barry

If you are looking to put some sub menus in the Site Administration block or something ?
look into ./lib/adminlib.php function called admin_settingpage() and its usage in other pages.
But as barry said you need to code it.

Hi Sayali,
So which theme are you using?
If you use the Aardvark theme you can simply edit the topmenu.php file to add your own menus/submenus.
This link gives you an idea (with downloadable code) of how to implement a CSS based horizontal menu with (nested) submenus.
I implemented this in 'Beaux theme with nested menus (automatic)' but mine is an automatic course category & course menu system (based on a mix of the lwis.net, Aardvark & A theme with automatic Menus bar). Of course it can still handle manually added menu items as well by editing the topmenu.php file.
Hope this helps.

Barry
