hello,
In the side menu (mainmenue*) of the 'Replicant 2' the 'submenu-arrow.png' are not appearing in the second and third level (like they are appearing in the Top menu.
How can this be activated for having a full useable side navigation?
...and, How can I show up longer menue names? They simply disappearing in this menu. how it's possible that they're appearing in a second line?

for sure, our site is still in editing. because of the reason i asked for we extended already the top menue, but this won't be enough for all menue items we need to add.

please have a look at: /products/NBC Filtration systems for Vehicle/Filter Batteries...
how is the side menue intended to work?

The arrow only appears if that menu item has child. So, for your 3rd level menu items which doesn't have any child menu anymore, the arrow will not appear.
To increase the dropdown menu width for the items you mentioned, Edit your template.css at:
<Joomla Root>/templates/<your template name>/css/template.css
At the end of the lines, add below codes:#horiz-menu ul.menutop ul ul {width: 310px;}

thanks for your advice, but what i can see the menue item 'Products' has many children: Produts / NBC Protection / NBC Protection for Vehicles / FA 270/150 N....
why no of the items (with children) shows the arrow in > the side menue <. The top menue shows them properly.
regarding the top menue: due to the very long item names i would like to create the possibilty having two lines for one menu item like I could manage it in the side menue.
Is there a way to do this?

Benjamin:
In your code you have
<span style="background-image: none; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; "> Products </span>
which is overriding the CSS styling for the span which would give it the arrow for a background:
ul.menu li span { background: url(../images/style9/submenu-arrow.png) 95% 50% no-repeat; }
Eliminate the calls to background-image inline in the span tag and the CSS will be used and your arrow will return.

ah, my fault. I though Benjamin talked about the menu on the top. I re-read his first post again and it's the side menu. Thanks Jeff for the help

Yes, I'm talking about the left menu.
Check this screenshot attachment...
Why only this menu is not have an arrow?
It's strange, because other menus (and those who are not parent) have's arrow..
Menu's has no child should not be without an arrow??
It's look like a bug to me.
Let me know why its happens and how to fix it

Hello Benjamin,
Could you please try this? Edit your template.css at:
<Joomla Root>/templates/<your template name>/css/template.css
At the end of the lines, add below codes:ul.menu li span { background: url(../images/style9/submenu-arrow.png) 95% 50% no-repeat !important; }
