Hi Konstrictorman.
Sorry for late respond.
well, I have added few menus at the bottom page and one menu on top of the search module in home page. Moreover, I could make submenu on top menu like drop down.
Well to add menu to your page there are different ways but the easiest one is :
Note : you have to modify 3 different files on your template
Note: There is a software called Agent Ransack. I bet this software can change your programming world when you work with Joomla and you are looking for specific code line. You can download it free from internet and then just make a copy of your template into your computer and then you can easily search for file names or any specific text that you cannot find it on the template files.
1- Modify templateDetails.xml : you can find it on you template root. Copy the file on your system and then open it. You can find all content position here. Add your new module name if you don’t have it on your list
Like <position>adlinks</position>
2- Modify index.php : you can find it on your template root.
You need to add the module that you defined in previous step. Like the following lines: (Note: Be careful, add codes in the position that you want. For example if you want to have bottom links then add it where you can see the footer module and codes. You probably need to modify the file for few times and test it each time to make sure the new module position in the right place.
<div class="adlinks-class" align="center">
<jdoc:include type="modules" name="adlinks" style="topmenu" />
</div>
3- Modify template.css: you can find it on CSS folder in template root
Well this part is important. Well, you have to know how to program with CSS.
I customize it based on my requirements
/*---------------------------------addlinkmenu---*/
.adlinks-class{
float: none;
margin-bottom:0;
margin-left: 20.15em;
margin-right:20.15em;
margin-top: 0;
text-align: left;
}
.adlinks-class a:hover{
text-align:center;
padding-bottom:30px;
text-decoration:underline overline;
color:#333;
}
.adlinks-class a:link{
text-decoration:none;
color:#666;
}
.adlinks-class a:visited{
text-decoration:none;
color:#666;
}
.adlinks-class a:active{
text-decoration:none;
For submenu also you need to add codes on template.css
I have post part of codes since you need to read about it yourself. This part only show you how to add dropdown menu in your top menu but not whole story!
/*-------------------------------------mainmenu---*/
.top_menu {
background:url(../images/menubg.gif) 0 0 repeat-x;
height:39px;
position:absolute;
width:100%;
margin:111px 0 0 0;
/*overflow:hidden*/
}
ul.menu-nav {
list-style:none;
padding-top:7px;
margin:0 !important;
list-style: none;
position: relative;
}
ul.menu-nav ul {
background: url(../images/ddmbg.gif) repeat-x left top #363636;
display: none;
left: 0;
list-style: none;
margin: 0;
position: absolute;
top: 100%;
width: auto;
}
ul.menu-nav ul ul,
ul.menu-nav ul ul ul {
left: 100%;
top: 0;
}
ul.menu-nav li {
margin-right:18px;
padding:4px 0 4px 18px;
background:url(../images/dotmenu.gif) repeat-y 0% 0%;
display: inline;
float: left;
position: relative;
}
ul.menu-nav li:first-of-type{
background: none;
}
ul.menu-nav ul li {
background: none;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
display: block;
width: 100%;
}
Good luck

I am also trying to get submenus to drop down from Top Menu items in rhuk_milkyway 
. It works with the template "icons004" but when I change the default to milkyway all the menu items are displayed (see attachment). I thought I had the module correctly organised (see attachment) but it still does not work. Can anyone help ?
