Basic Pages - top menu links appear underneath bar (2nd pages link onwards)
Hi @Shadowdare,
Thank you for an awesome plugin. It really has helped me to personalise my forum.
I have several pages created, and three that I want displayed on the top Menu as text links. I have ticked the required box, and they do display. The first one is where it should be, but the second link is directly underneath the first one (and not by the side). The third link is by the side of the second link. Please see screenshot attached (I am logged in as Admin, I've moved the Dashboard link to see if that makes more room - which it's made no difference).
I am running 2.0.18.8, and have the latest BasicPages 1.8 installed.
Many thanks,
Lisa.

It probably has to do with compatibility with css and theme layout for menu nesting.
to avoid this you could try changing this (I haven't tested in basicpages, but I know something similar worked successfully when writing one of my plugins).

I see the same issue on 2.0.18.8. This does not occur on 2.1b2.
From what I can tell, it has to do with the grouping of links.
EDIT - @peregrine did much of what I did. Using a different group for each link prevents the automatic sublists.

I noticed different themes exhibited different ways of displaying menu based on grouping.

Wow!!
That simple! I did it, AND without making it difficult for myself
All works - thanks!!!!
great. sometimes 10 second changes took hours figuring out in previous adventures.
if the first parameter is unique in each addlink it will not nest in any theme. If they are the same it will nest in certain themes.

I added a numeric index.

A couple of the menu items in Vanilla had the same first parameter with no problems. I didn't notice this problem with the default theme in both 2.0.18.8 and 2.1+, so it seems to depend on the theme. Anyway, this would be one way to implement drop-down menus.
@hgtonight, I will be updating the app with the numeric index fix soon.
Thanks for taking a look @peregrine and @hgtonight.
@marthajane77, thanks for checking out Basic Pages!

Thanks @Shadowdare, and as I said before it's truly awesome! It has made a huge difference to the development of my forum
@marthajane77, it's amazing how something as simple as pages make a huge improvement for websites!
I've just released Basic Pages 1.8.1 with a fix similar to @hgtonight's, but with the unique Page ID instead of the object index.
