Default Adding drop down menu to navtabs in CMS

I need the ability to add a drop down menu to the section of my home CMS page. So basically right now I have this:



But what I need is the categories of my sections to be my drop downs of the sections like this:



hopefully you get the idea. Is this possible with the vBulletin 4.2.2 nav system?

1) Create a tab.
2) Create a menu for the tab.
3) Edit the tab and find the setting, "Target Menu" select the menu you just created, click on save.
4) Add links to the menu you created, these are what will show up as the dropdown items in the tab.

I want it all to be under the Home menu though as it is now. Lyrics would have the drop down not Home or a new tab i create.

Well then what you would do is create a menu for the Home Tab, then add the links to that menu. It will then show up in the sub navigation row.

If the "Home" tab is the CMS tab in v4.2.1 or v4.2.2 then the navigational manager will not create sub-links or a drop-down menu. The section sub-links are handled in the CMS.

But you can create a menu, then add links to said menu, that point to the articles.

Yes, as long as the main tab doesn't point to the CMS. The only reason I made the statement at all, is in v4.2.0 it worked differently.

I don't want it to point to articles though. I want it to point to the categories of the sections. I guess even though I don't want to, I'll maybe have to use a custom jquery menu. I was hoping to avoid that.
