I found the custom menu edit section. I was just looking in all the wrong places. Thank you for your help Mary!

It was in the Appearance>Themes>Theme Settings section as you stated and works fine.

Thanks

We are using the latest version of Essential and can't make our custom menu display properly.  Our custom menu displays just fine if we switch to any other theme.

Ideas on how to fix this? Thanks.

Hi Mary,

It doesn't show up at all.

On my personal site, the menus show up just fine:

Menus OK














However, the same theme on our production site does not show our menus at all:

Menus missing

I just completed a new test while taking screenshots using the same custom menu on both sites (e.g. the standard one that comes with Moodle).  That menu appears fine on both sites.  However, when we put in our own menu, it doesn't appear (but works fine on our Moodle 2.6 server).

Here is the menu we want to display, containing links to documentation.  Is there anything wrong with it?

I have tested this in Moodle 2.7 and the menu works OK in Clean theme, so I guess your menu is OK although I tend to remove the last " from target="_blank" as it is not needed...and therefore will look like this...

Hi Marc,

I have just tested ALL your menu, as you wrote it in your last comment, and all works OK in Essential theme...so not sure what is causing the problem in your production site.

Thanks for taking the time to test this, Mary, it's much appreciated.  I'll redirect the issue to our internal IT team.

Have a great weekend!

Ok, this is strange.  On a hunch, I went back and tried pasting in our menu again... and it now works.  A glitch when we updated our server?

Oh well, at least it works now.  Thanks again for your help!
