  Hi,
  I’m refering a problem that was also commented on a wordpress.org forum. I love Sunspot theme, but can’t work with the slide-out child menus, when pointing them their vanish. And so child pages don’t open. I’ve tried this on IExplorer 8, Google Chrome and Mozilla, and on different pc locations, and the problem remains.
  My site is:

  Those fly-out menus work very well for me and I’m using Firefox 20.

  If you are not running one of the browsers and versions listed at http://browsehappy.com/ please try upgrading or switching first.

  Note: If you are using an IE9 browser in compatibility mode that makes it render as IE7 and IE7 is not supported. To disable see > http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/1196-internet-explorer-compatibility-view-turn-off.html

  If you are running one of the browsers and versions listed at http://browsehappy.com please do these four things:

  1. Try clearing your browser’s cache:

  2. Make sure that you have third-party cookies enabled: http://en.support.wordpress.com/third-party-cookies/

  3. Try with all browser extensions or add-ons temporarily disabled.

  4. Try enabling HTTPS: http://en.support.wordpress.com/https/

  If it’s still happening, let us know exactly which browser (and version of it) you’re using by checking here if necessary http://www.whatbrowser.org/ and also post any error reports you get.

  Lots of folks don’t like those fly-out menus. I recently set up a site where the board of directors absolutely hated the fly-outs because they (not being computer adept) they found them difficult to navigate.

  This is an idea that might work for you. Make a custom menu with no links and set it as your primary menu. Then make a custom menu with all your parent and child pages and put it into a menu widget. It will list your pages with their hierarchy.
