The idea that you click on 'Admin' or 'Reports' and it collapses the other items is really nice, could you do the same with 'Section' so that if you are into Admin etc etc the list of tables collapses. The LH menu can be quite busy and if you have a lot of tables it pushes the next option way down the page.

Thanks,
Larry

Hi Larry,

From what you describe, it sounds like you want to use "Menu Groups".

What you can do is go into your section editor and create a new section. Select "Menu Group" . Then, from your section editor, drag and drop the sections you want to appear under that category to be under that section.

Hope this helps

Hi Larry,

Could you provide a screenshot of the issue you're running into?

From the sounds of it, I think the best solution would to have a number of Menu Groups. So instead of just a large "General Tables" group, you can have more groups with fewer sections in each.

Hope this helps.

It was the list of tables, all I did was create a menu item and move them all into it. My suggestion was that if you have a few table then the LH list pushes the 'Admin' option down and off the screen. I already have the 'Report' one and my new plugin so I was losing those off the screen.

Cheers,
Larry
