Issue

Can't edit a MenuMachine 1 menu after installing MenuMachine 2.

Can't see MenuMachine 1 menus after MenuMachine 2 is installed.

Menu appears OK in a browser but not in GoLive. Menu has disappeared or has been replaced by a generic script icon in layout view.

Solution

If your menus have disappeared or can't be edited after installing MenuMachine 2, you need to install MenuMachine 1.

MenuMachine 1 menus can't be edited with MenuMachine 2. You must have MenuMachine 1 installed to edit menus created with MenuMachine 1.

How do I edit MenuMachine 1 menus?

If you need to edit menus created with MenuMachine 1, you must have MenuMachine 1 installed in your copy of GoLive.

MenuMachine 1 and MenuMachine 2 can be installed in the same copy of GoLive so you can work with old menus using MenuMachine 1 at the same time as creating and editing new menus with MenuMachine 2.

You must install the very latest version of MenuMachine 1 which you can download here:

http://menumachine.com/mm1/download.php

Once MenuMachine 1 is installed, you can install the latest version of MenuMachine 2 which you can download here:

http://menumachine.com/download/

Once both MenuMachine 1 and MenuMachine 2 are installed, you will be able to edit old menus using the normal MenuMachine 1 Inspector, as well as create new menus using the new MenuMachine 2 Object Palette and MenuMachine Editor.

You can even have MenuMachine 1 and MenuMachine 2 menus in the same site and on the same page.
