  Hi, I’m seeing some CSS in the theme that looks like it supports a drop-down submenu when you hover over one of the navigation menu items. Is that the case? If so, how would I go about creating a sub-menu? I don’t see any option for this when I click to menus from the Dashboard.

  My website is porchlightcommunity.org/test

  Here’s the code:

  
  @media only screen and (min-width: 560px) {
  .main-navigation > div {
  display: inline-block;
  }
  .main-navigation #toggle-menu {
  display: none;
  }
  /* .main-navigation > div > ul > li > ul {
  display: none;
  }*/
  }

  .main-navigation > div > ul {
  display: flex;
  flex-wrap: wrap;
  list-style: none;
  margin: 0;
  max-width: none;
  padding-left: 0;
  position: relative;
  /* Sub-menus Flyout */
  }

  .main-navigation > div > ul ul {
  padding-left: 0;
  }

  .main-navigation > div > ul li {
  display: block;
  position: relative;
  width: 100%;
  z-index: 1;
  }

  .main-navigation > div > ul li:hover, .main-navigation > div > ul li[focus-within] {
  cursor: pointer;
  z-index: 99999;
  }

  .main-navigation > div > ul li:hover, .main-navigation > div > ul li:focus-within {
  cursor: pointer;
  z-index: 99999;
  }

  
  @media only screen and (min-width: 560px) {
  .main-navigation > div > ul li {
  display: inherit;
  width: inherit;
  /* Submenu display */
  }
  .main-navigation > div > ul li:hover > ul,
  .main-navigation > div > ul li[focus-within] > ul,
  .main-navigation > div > ul li ul:hover,
  .main-navigation > div > ul li ul:focus {
  visibility: visible;
  opacity: 1;
  display: block;
  }
  .main-navigation > div > ul li:hover > ul,
  .main-navigation > div > ul li:focus-within > ul,
  .main-navigation > div > ul li ul:hover,
  .main-navigation > div > ul li ul:focus {
  visibility: visible;
  opacity: 1;
  display: block;
  }
  }

  
  @media only screen and (min-width: 560px) {
  .main-navigation > div > ul > li > a {
  line-height: 1;
  }
  .main-navigation > div > ul > li > a:before, .main-navigation > div > ul > li > a:after {
  content: ”;
  display: block;
  height: 0;
  width: 0;
  }
  .main-navigation > div > ul > li > a:before {
  margin-bottom: -0.12em;
  }
  .main-navigation > div > ul > li > a:after {
  margin-top: -0.11em;
  }
  .main-navigation > div > ul > li:first-of-type > a {
  padding-left: 0;
  }
  .main-navigation > div > ul > li:last-of-type > a {
  padding-right: 0;
  }
  }

  .main-navigation > div > ul > li > .sub-menu {
  margin: 0;
  position: relative;
  }

  
  @media only screen and (min-width: 560px) {
  .main-navigation > div > ul > li > .sub-menu {
  background: white;
  box-shadow: 0px 0px 8px 2px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
  left: 0;
  top: 100%;
  min-width: max-content;
  opacity: 0;
  position: absolute;
  transition: all 0.5s ease;
  visibility: hidden;
  }
  }

  .main-navigation > div > ul > li > .sub-menu .sub-menu {
  width: 100%;
  }

  .main-navigation a {
  color: blue;
  display: block;
  font-family: sans-serif;
  font-family: var(–font-headings, sans-serif);
  font-weight: bold;
  padding: 8px 0;
  }

  
  @media only screen and (min-width: 560px) {
  .main-navigation a {
  padding: 16px;
  }
  }

  .main-navigation a:link, .main-navigation a:visited {
  color: blue;
  }

  .main-navigation a:hover {
  color: indigo;
  }

  .main-navigation .sub-menu {
  list-style: none;
  margin-left: 0;
  /* Reset the counter for each UL */
  counter-reset: nested-list;
  }

  .main-navigation .sub-menu .menu-item a {
  padding-top: 8px;
  padding-bottom: 8px;
  }

  .main-navigation .sub-menu .menu-item a::before {
  /* Increment the dashes */
  counter-increment: nested-list;
  /* Insert dashes with spaces in between */
  content: “– ” counters(nested-list, “– “, none);
  }

  
  @media only screen and (min-width: 560px) {
  .main-navigation > div > ul > .menu-item-has-children > a::after {
  content: “0a025BC”;
  display: inline-block;
  font-size: 0.69444rem;
  height: inherit;
  width: inherit;
  }
  }

  .main-navigation .hide-visually {
  position: absolute !important;
  clip: rect(1px, 1px, 1px, 1px);
  padding: 0 !important;
  border: 0 !important;
  height: 1px !important;
  width: 1px !important;
  overflow: hidden;
  }

  body:not(.fse-enabled) .main-navigation a {
  font-size: 1.2rem;
  }
