Main menu order problem

Posted 15 years 9 months ago
- I have experienced this problem before and the only way I managed to resolve it was by deleting the complete mainmenu section and re installing that whole section.
  
  What happens is that the green arrows are missing when i create a new sub menu item. This then leads to a problem of reordering that item.
  
  My website is growing all the time and this is becoming a headache to say the least!
  
  Site is http://www.chandlersford.org.uk
  
  Joomla 1.5 ver 1.9
  
  This may be a joomla problem rather than a template one but does any one have an answer?
  
  It is not a problem with browser etc. as i regularly clear all these.
  
  Does any one else suffer with this?

- The problem is with the green arrows - some of them are missing. There are a number of mainmenu sections where this occurs.

- Are you able to reorder them by changing the numbers in the box, ie Charities > 2 and Churches > 1 and then clicking the little icon (save order) at the top of that column?

- Yes - but it does not always display correctly on the site.

- Well now - that is a pain.
  
  Have you tried moving part of the offending section (say, Charities) out into the root of the menu and back in to see if it auto-magically sets the correct values again? Only a little less painful than deleting it, I know.

- Thanks for your idea but sadly it did not work.
  
  However, when I placed it under "Top" those little green arrows reappeared but when I moved it back they were nowhere to be seen. Strange or what!
  
  I really think it would be a good idea if a Joomla expert could look into this to see what is going on as surly I am not the only one to have this problem? If there is anyone out there that would like to take a look behind the programme on my website I would be happy to hear from them. This may well turn out to be a bug in Joomla that needs attention.
  
  Help needed please.

- Does anyone know where these little green arrows are in the joomla set up so I can take a look at the programme for myself?

- Actually, I have the same issue with the same template. I've tried the suggestions above but no joy (but in my case, it's not a big problem). I'd try another template to see if the problem persists but I just went live yesterday (sorry).

- Hi Sue B
  
  It would be interesting to know how large your site is and if anyone else is experiencing the same problem.
