The Main Menu links would be the Custom Post Type Name (like Places or Events) and when the link gets clicked or hovered over a drop down menu appears with the categories (that match with the Custom Post Type).

Wondering how to do this.

Thanks
Stacey

See attachment

Edit: cross post with Paolo 🙂

1.If I try to drag “Lodging” from the list on the left to the Menu structure area it will not allow me to do this.

2. If I click on “Lodging” on the left to expand it say no items (this is correct as I have not uploaded anything yet.

3. If I expand “Lodging Categories” and I click on the categories which are really want to be Sub-Menu items of “Lodging” it will add these to the Menu but only as Top Level Menu items.

Do I have something wrong in some setting somewhere?

Why does my Custom Post Type not show up in Menu Structure even though it is in the Main Menu on the site?

The screen shot you posted…did you have to create custom urls (link) and it to /places and under it add categories?

In the screenshot I posted I’ve created a custom url
