 * Hello!
 * Im using the Kale template for my first wordpress homepage & I have some troubles
   with deactivating the button as a link itself.
 * When I press on the button “Leistungen” I would love to see the dropdown, rather
   than being able to get connected to the page named “Leistungen.html” -> There
   shouldn’t be one, if possible.
 * Is that possible? Do I need to code something? In the menu I see the post titled
   as a Link, but I can’t find a way to deactivate it, while not also deactivating
   the dropdown.
 * Thanks a lot!

 * Hi there,
 * Thank you for getting in touch with us.
 * Please navigate to _Appearance → Customize → Menus → Kale Menu Settings_ and 
   disable “Enable Dropdown Menu Parent Nodes” option. This should disable parent
   links in main navigation.
 * Kind regards
