  I’m using the K2-lite theme on my blog (http://superfans.org) and was hoping to have SubPages displayed as a dropdown from each Page on the bar at the top. I’ve seen how as1923 (http://sensico.wordpress.com) did it but I can’t get that setup to work on the K2-lite theme. Ideally I’d like to be able to just buy the CSS addon, paste code and have it work. Can anyone help me?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  You cannot add functionality to a theme with the CSS upgrade. You have to choose a theme that already works that way.

  Sensico’s blog was built on Sandbox. Sandbox has far more latitude in the CSS. CSS is theme specific. What works with Sandbox will not necessarily work in other themes.

  as1923 is able to do this on her blog with a CSS change. Shouldn’t I be able to do the same?

  Not unless you are using Sandbox.

  Not in the theme you are using, as said above

  You can easily add a scroll bar, which is what I used on mine. Adjust the width to the width of your sidebar, and the height to whatever you want.

  <div style="height:74px;width:203px;overflow:auto;">
  <ul>
  <li>
  </li>
  </ul>
  </div>
