Hi, I have a mainmenu and a side menu that changes according to what has been selected in the mainmenu. When a user clicks an item in the side menu, the pathway "resets" itself. For example, clicking an item in the Main Menu may produce the following pathway:
Home > Project > SubProject
Then when I click the menu item in SubProject side menu, the pathway returns to:
Home > Side Menu Item
whereas I want Home > Project > SubProject > Side Menu Item
Any ideas how to achieve this?
Thanks.

Menus can be very frustrating, part of the reason is that each time that you create a menu entry, it gets assigned an ID, and that is how J! keeps track of everything.
You can use SplitMenu (if your template supports it), which would give you a similar effect, but all of the items would be the same.
You could also try copying the items from the primary menu to the side menu, instead of recreating them.
Finally, you could always build the side menu manually from the links in the primary menu, which would guarantee that the same id was in use. - www.gofftech.com Web Design

Sebastian recently integrated splitmenu2 with the tree menu. Maybe he is willing to share/sell you his hacks.
