I have a menu item that has 21 submenus. When I click the menu a drop down shows but several of the submenus are not shown. I’ve tried several different settings but no luck in getting all 21 submenus to show. Using Safari as my browser. Any suggestions? Thank you.

Sounds like an overflow setting issue. Make sure the overflow setting is set to visible in the menu \> layout \> overflow setting.

If I set the overflow to visible the submenus don’t show at all when I select the menu item. The screen appears to flicker but the submenu items aren’t shown

Did you try the other settings (ie. scroll and auto)?

Yes, I tried them all before I submitted my post.

I find that if I “zoom out” my Safari browser that all 21 submenus show.

My workaround is to create a menu item with three submenus. In each of those submenus I create two or more submenus based on how I’m splitting the original 21 submenus.
