 * Hi [@mstudioil](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mstudioil/)!
 * We are still supporting the Accordion Menu.
 * The way our menu works is, that you can publish it either with a shortcode or
   as a widget in the Appearance -> Widgets. Now if you want to replace your menu
   with ours, you would need to do some advanced coding to modify your theme. You
   would have to find the code of your main menu and remove it. Then probably the
   best would be to create a new widget position in its place. You can find a documentation
   here at our other plugin, how that can be done:
    [https://smartslider3.helpscoutdocs.com/article/1380-creating-new-widget-positions-wordpress](https://smartslider3.helpscoutdocs.com/article/1380-creating-new-widget-positions-wordpress)
   Then you could select our menu to show up in there.
 * Also please note that our menu is just a sidebar menu, so you can’t switch it
   to be a top menu if that is how your current main menu is in your theme.

 * Hi [@mstudioil](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mstudioil/)
 * You’ll probably need to edit your theme’s PHP files. I suggest inspecting your
   theme’s codes: [https://smartslider3.helpscoutdocs.com/article/318-chrome#code](https://smartslider3.helpscoutdocs.com/article/318-chrome#code)
   
   to find out where is the menu’s code coming from, then you can use the Accordion
   menu’s PHP code: [http://accordion-menu.helpscoutdocs.com/article/971-publish-on-wordpress#php](http://accordion-menu.helpscoutdocs.com/article/971-publish-on-wordpress#php)
   to replace your original menu with it.
