Topic: Drop Downs?

I notice on the demo site that there are drop downs for categories under the blog nav.

How do I enable this feature?

First you would need to create the categories on the "Content/Categories" tab, but then, as the dropdown will only display categories that contain articles, you would need to add the categories to some articles via the "Write" tab.

If I want to enable that for a different section, or multiple sections on the blog, how would that work?

Well first you need to add your new section to the navigation so go to the cb_top_navigation form template and look for this block of code:-

<li<txp:if_section name="archives,articles"> class="current_page_item"</txp:if_section>><a href="<txp:site_url />articles" title="Weblog"><span>Blog</span></a>
<txp:cbs_category_list section="articles" wraptag="ul" break="li" /> 
</li>

This is the code for the Blog link and is the only link that displays categories. If you copy this block to where you want a new section link to appear, then change all the section references to reflect the section you want displayed, I think that should about do it.
