thanks for the update.
does this version support multiple languages? if so, what is the correct format for adding a language key? (i don't have multiple languages enabled presently to test here).
@ura it does not say in the release notes, so i guess it does not :)
Great new release! Could you give some quick examples what can be done with the "action" function?
ok.
i just found a bug-ette here.
i accidentally added a menu item where the href of the link contained the 'menu_builder_edit_mode=on' parameter.. and found that if i click that menu link in a browser where i am not logged-in to the site, the 'cog' icons appear next to the menu items and the '+' symbols appear underneath the menu items as if i were logged in and using the menu edit mode. when i click one of these 2 icons i see a white page.
@ura thanks for reporting. Fixed it in the github version.
where is the menu builder? i'm not seeing it in the admin page. all i see is filter url and titles through htmlawed
it's build into the main site, no need for a admin menu entry.
how does one rearrange the menus then?
drag and drop
thanks for the update.
i've been wondering about adding css animations to the drop-downs and even having multi-levelled dropdowns..
i haven't made the changes to the menu-builder plugin yet..
here's a helpful tutorial if anyone is inspired to do similar:

this looks like a good plugin thanks : )
Works perfectly ... love it!
hi,
When I activate this I lose the activity page. :-( ? Help, please. Am I doing something wrong?
Are there For elgg 1.9 version
hmm, seems to work here on 1.8.17.
This plugin in awesome! I love it. I downloaded the one above, but I gues I should get the github version? Also, do you know of a way to have an added Top Menu tab NOT have a link? And what does the action do again? I don't think that was answered earlier.
Another question, does anyone know what I could set in hook and/or edit to get the current calendar date as [date] like that which exists for [wwwroot] and [username]?
Kepa
For anyone else looking, figured out the NO LINK question I asked earlier, a # like the more tab will do just fine.
Hi, I have installed this but I cannot find a way to use it. It does not allow any dragging or dropping of menu items from the site view. Could it be that it is not compatible with the Business Theme from Ellgzone? There are no errors showing either. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in anticipation.
Hi
@chicken
I have the same question ... How can we translate the menu with this plugin ?
Thanks :)
The answer is you can't translate menus with this plugin. There is one that is built on this plugin and does allow you to translate http://community.elgg.org/plugins/1226896/1.1.2/menu-builder-modificated
Just wondering if v2.0 on github works. I just upgraded to elgg 1.9 and downloaded the latest menu builder but I can't seem to reorder menu items or remove items. I didn't have any problems with the 1.1.1 menu builder prior to this big upgrade.
It should work, but you management of the menu's has been moved to the back-end. You can find it under Configure -> Menu items. Be advised that it is currently not completely finished.
Thanks for your response, Jeroen...didn't notice it until now for some reason. I found menu items under appearance but it doesn't look anything like what I did when my site was using 1.8 last week. It's almost as if I was using a totally different plugin, but menu builder is the only one in my previous plugin list that seems to relate to what I had done.
Previously I was able to simply reorder the menus that were displayed at the top of my site, as well as configure which ones I wanted to hide as submenus under top level menus. But now under "menu items" I only see "managable menus, no results found" and "new menu, internal menu name". And under Settings > Menu Builder I just see "Filter url and titles through htmlawed", "Export site menu", and "Import site menu". What am I overlooking here??
