Greetings,
I've spent considerable time researching this on the Forum and elsewhere but came up empty - I'd greatly appreciate any advice!
After upgrading to Genesis 2.0 I was unable to access the Fancy Dropdowns plugin and got this error message:
Decided to use WP Custom Menus (Appearance / Menus) but they don't work correctly - the submenus disappear before I'm able to mouse over them. (Pixel Happy Child Theme, WP 3.7)
So, could someone let me know if there are known issues re: accessing the Fancy Dropdowns plugin, and if so, what is the solution
OR
how to edit style.css so that Custom Menus work correctly?
Thanks!

I'm not sure what you mean by "sourcing" my page, sorry.I have these plugins installed:
Askimet
Blue Captcha
Fast Secure Contact Form
Genesis Simple Edits
WP-Cycle
Theme Test Drive (not activated)If there is a way to determine if one of these is causing dropdown problems, I'm all ears. Just not sure where to start with that. Thanks!
November 10, 2013 at 12:09 pm #72082RobGMemberOne quick way to find out what's causing it is to disable what plugins you have installed then check to see if your still having the problem. If the problem has gone enable your plugins one by one and see if your menu is still working.

http://www.robgoss.com / Follow me Twitter / https://twitter.com/robgossNovember 10, 2013 at 3:43 pm #72119kiki19MemberThanks, RobG. I determined that the WP-Cycle plugin (image slideshow) is causing the problem. It uses jQuery Cycle plugin, if that's relevant.
The child theme I'm using (Pixel Happy) is built around WP-Cycle so though I suppose I can do away with dropdown menus in order to continue using WP-Cycle, I kinda don't want to do that. I've done more research and posted in the WP Support Forum (no response yet) and haven't found an answer. Do you have any ideas? Thanks!
November 10, 2013 at 4:33 pm #72135RobGMemberA few months back I was using http://wordpress.org/plugins/vslider/ on one of my blogs and it worked very well, you might give it a try I my self would hate to do aways with my menu... Hope this helps.

I'm pressed for time right now so I installed the Fancy Dropdowns plugin to see what would happen and that seemed to help though it's not perfect. I really need to delve into the slideshow/menu thing - I need a total redesign, really - so I'm glad to know about vslider for use down the road. I appreciate your help so much! Thanks!
November 11, 2013 at 11:53 am #72331RobGMemberYour very welcome if there's anything else I can help you with just post here in the forums I'd be glad to help.
