Moving items from sys_menu to sub_menu

[aunrea]

Is there a way to move sys_menu items to sub_menu? I have tried this by basicly copying the info in sys_menu to sub_menu but when I view my site it shows {variable} instead of what the variable represents. Is there a way to do this?

You can see what I mean at http://scrapbooking.spot-design.net/gallery

This is what I have in the theme.php file:

Code Select Expand

define('THEME_HAS_NO_SUB_MENU_BUTTONS', 1);

// HTML template for sys menu
$template_sys_menu = <<<EOT


<!-- BEGIN home -->
<li><a href="{HOME_TGT}" title="{HOME_TITLE}">Home</a></li>
<!-- END home -->

<!-- BEGIN album_list -->
<li><a href="{ALB_LIST_TGT}" title="{ALB_LIST_TITLE}">Gallery</a></li>
<!-- END album_list -->

<!-- BEGIN allow_memberlist -->
<li><a href="{MEMBERLIST_TGT}" title="{MEMBERLIST_TITLE}">{MEMBERLIST_LNK}</a></li>
<!-- END allow_memberlist -->



<!-- BEGIN my_gallery -->
<li><a href="{MY_GAL_TGT}" title="{MY_GAL_TITLE}">{MY_GAL_LNK}</a></li>
<!-- END my_gallery -->
<!-- BEGIN upload_pic -->
<li><a href="{UPL_PIC_TGT}" title="{UPL_PIC_TITLE}">{UPL_PIC_LNK}</a></li>
<!-- END upload_pic -->
<!-- BEGIN faq -->
<li><a href="{FAQ_TGT}" title="{FAQ_TITLE}">{FAQ_LNK}</a></li>
<!-- END faq -->
<!-- BEGIN custom_link -->
<li><a href="{CUSTOM_LNK_TGT}" title="{CUSTOM_LNK_TITLE}">{CUSTOM_LNK}</a></li>
<!-- END custom_link -->

<!-- END my_profile -->

<!-- BEGIN enter_admin_mode -->
<li><a href="{ADM_MODE_TGT}" title="{ADM_MODE_TITLE}">{ADM_MODE_LNK}</a></li>
<!-- END enter_admin_mode -->

<!-- BEGIN leave_admin_mode -->
<li><a href="{USR_MODE_TGT}" title="{USR_MODE_TITLE}">{USR_MODE_LNK}</a></li>
<!-- END leave_admin_mode -->

<!-- BEGIN register -->

Copy function theme_main_menu($which) from the sample theme.php and make the changes to the array's there as well. It's a lot to paste here but I think you'll get the picture.

Now it is working. I don't know why. I continued working on my theme when I noticed it was working correctly! I don't think I changed anything in the menus. Who knows, sometimes the internet can do mysterious things.
