# Submenu Dropdown Appearance

 * Hovering over a main menu item causes a submenu to pop out and appear beside 
   the main menu item, which is good. However when hovering over a popout submenu
   item, the next item on the *main* menu is what gets highlighted, and the item
   on the submenu disappears, highlighting the next main menu item instead.
 * This means a visitor cannot click on a submenu item from the main menu.
 * There are two main menu items which exhibit this behavior, but a third that does
   not. I can’t find any reason why the first two exhibit this behavior; not the
   parent/child page relationship, not the placement in the menu structure, nothing.
 * I don’t know how long this behavior has existed but it cannot continue. Visitors
   need to be able to click from the menu to the page they want to select.
 * Any advice is welcome.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fsubmenu-dropdown-appearance%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)

 * Hi [@captncrunch](https://wordpress.org/support/users/captncrunch/),
 * This should be fixed in version 2.1.2, which was just submitted. Install the 
   update, clear the cache, and let me know.
