I have created a menu module from the MAIN MENU and restricted to to a specific area. However, when I click on a link from the module, it tells me the page is not there. When I click on the same link in the MAIN MENU it woks just fine. I noticed the link from the MAIN MENU is this:
http://localhost/~houston/Sunshine/index.php/sunshine-image-gallery/sunroom-picture-window
and the link from the Module Menu for the same page is this:
http://localhost/~houston/Sunshine/index.php/sunshine-image-gallery/sunroom-picture-window/sunshine-image-gallery
Why are they different?
Many thanks,

- Dan, if you noticed, the links are both localserver. I was hoping someone could actually look at the difference between the links and tell me why the module menu adds the "sunshine-image-gallery" to the end of every link. This is what is causing the link not to work. I was hoping to avoid having to put it up on a live server but I can if I need to.

- dan, I am not familiar with that technique. Perhaps you can elaborate.

Admin > Component? Are you referring to the Menu Competent itself? I do not see this path in the backend admin.

Okay, I'm ASSUMING here that the sidebar Menu is a standard module menu and you assigned the Main Menu to it correct?
On your Main menu the Sunshine Image gallery -> Sunrooms -> Picture Window menu item, is this a link you provided or was it supplied by the gallery module?
The Main menu link
splitlightdesigns.com/sunshine/index.php...nroom-picture-window once landed shows the URL as
splitlightdesigns.com/sunshine/index.php...ure-window#!Bailey_1 while the module menu has a link of
splitlightdesigns.com/sunshine/index.php...nshine-image-gallery
which doesn't seem to be valid.
I'm concerned your gallery component is throwing in that #!Bailey_1 and I'm not sure why.
What if you create your own menu with links that YOU specify and use that for the side menu instead.
