Hi, Caty,
IMHO, users would appreciate all kind of these hints and customization in
step-by-step "manual".
I had an occasion with a very short time to implement "XWiki.org-styled"
horizontal menu: I installed it, - it didn't work. :-(
I gave up and installed "non-XWiki.org-styled menu" instead and it worked fine
"from scratch".
Editing xml file - fine, but looks not so obvious for less experienced users
:-)
Kind Regards,
Dmitry

What you find in the archive is:

"XWikiOrgCode.MenuMacro". This means that the path is no longer absolute,

The case described up means that for each subwiki you have you create a

separate MenuMacro page. The subwikis can share the same skin, or have

The other solution I mentioned is going in MenuMacro.xml and writting
