[SOLVED] Top menu & side menu working independently

I am converting a website that has everything hardcoded.  I am having a bit of a challenge with the menus.

The top menu is only 5 links and is single level.  Each page has a left side, vertical menu with 9 links.  

I used:  {menu template='minimal_menu.tpl' start_level='2' collapse='1'} to display the left side menu which worked fine.  The problem is that now the top menu is producing a drop down showing the 9 page links which are associated with the first menu tab.  

I need some help getting rid of the drop down items.  I've tried switching the top menu tag to: {menu}, {cssmenu.tpl}, and even {menu template='minimal_menu.tpl' start_level='0' collapse='1'}.

Nothing has worked and any help will be appreciated.

Did you try:

Code: Select all

{menu number_of_levels=1 ...}
...for the top menu?

Thank you Wishbone.  That worked perfectly!

Where could I have looked to find that tag?
