Upload the entire `/menus-plus/` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory 1. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress == Frequently Asked Questions == = How do these 'Hybrid' lists work? = Essentially, you are embedding another Menus Plus+ list within your current list. This allows you to break the regular WordPress hierarchy and make submenus out of anything you want. Editing the hybrid lists take you to another menu list; hybrid list items are orange so you don't get confused. Hyrbid lists are only available to the parent list. Therefore you cannot use them as individual widgets. Sorry! It's just protect you from endless loops! = What kinds of classes and ids are applied to the menu? = Only the normal classes and ids generated by WordPress (eg. `current-page-item`). For external URLs, you may assign an optional class to help styling. For the most part, the template tag will spit out a simple list without a parent container or style. Customize as you wish. = Will it do page and category children? = You know it. Just change the "Children" option accordingly. At this time you cannot do highly customized orders of children, but you can sort them in a number of ways (date, id, name, etc ...). = How do I return my separate lists? = You can either create a widget for that specific list through 'Appearance > Widgets', or use the template tag. When you edit a list, a little box beneath gives you the correct template tag for showing that particular list. For example, ``. If you leave out the number, the earliest list is returned. = Will the widget necessarily display the widgets title? = The widget will display a title only if you supply one. If the list is going to be your main navigation, and you don't want the list title to be show, simply leave it blank. == Screenshots == 1. A view from the admin interface. 1.
