More on menu order
As you create pages in your site Administration, key pages need to be placed in your site menu (left menu and/or horizontal menu). These menus are your main menu. The position of the pages in the menu will be determined by the number you've allocated to its Page Position:. For example, position 0 is likely to be your Home Page, and so on down 1, 2, 3, etc.
The Menu Order (under page Tools) facility allows you to quickly and easily change the menu order and see the ON / OFF status of pages available for the menu.
You may, if it is enabled on your site, switch to editing the Secondary Menu pages by clicking on the button to the right.
Setting Up Parent and Child Menu (Dropdown) Relationships

Step 1: Set Up the Parent Page
Ensure the Parent Page is added to the menu:
Click Menu, tick Empty Site Cache and Page In Menu, and set its Page Position.
Parent pages should contain no content, as they are only used to access their dropdowns (children).

Click Relationships, then under URL Redirect, type the URL of a relevant child page.
Step 2: Assign a Parent Page
Go to or create the page you want to make a child.

Under Parent Page, select the desired Parent.
Click Save.
Step 3: Make the Child Page display in the Menu
Click Menu in the top menu.
Tick Empty Site Cache.
Under Menu Details:
Tick Page In Menu (the page will now appear as a dropdown).
Set Page Position (e.g., 1, 2, 3).
