Implement the menu without using the menu-in-menu plugin?

[bobbingwide]

In the live site the menu-in-menu plugin is used to complete the drop down menus.
There are 4 sub menus: SB, Selected Bits, Section B and Specially Built.

What's the easiest way of incorporating these menus into the main menu?

• Can it be done with drag and drop?
• If not, then I'll just have to add the menu items individually.

Requirement

• Main menu to match the existing live site
• Easiest way to implement
• Also, the styling still needs improving.

Proposed solution

• Try implementing with Drag and Drop in the Site Editor or tempate part editor
• If that fails do each item manually

Try implementing with Drag and Drop in the Site Editor or tempate part editor. If that fails do each item manually

• You can't insert a menu into a menu
• The easiest solution was to insert a vertical navigation menu for each of the 4 submenus
• Copy and paste the navigation-link blocks into the main-menu.html file
• I haven't yet removed the unnecessary attributes that may prevent the menu from working properly on the live site

eg. Navigation link produced by inserting the vertical navigation

<!-- wp:navigation-link {"label":"Standard Book","type":"bigram","id":4328,"url":"https://s.b/bigram/bigram/standard-book-2/","kind":"post-type","isTopLevelLink":true} /-->

The form of the navigation link we can get away with doesn't require the following attributes: type, id, kind, isTopLeveLink

eg

<!-- wp:navigation-link {"label":"Standard Book","url":"https://s.b/bigram/bigram/standard-book-2/"} /-->
