Changing the menu style to a Mega Menu
If your website has quite a large amount of sub pages or categories you might want to consider using a Mega menu.
To apply a Mega menu to the current website see - How do I change the look of my menu buttons?
Remember to make a backup of your theme in case you want to restore to the current style.
Standard menu vs Mega menu
The standard approach to menu dropdowns has each sub-category appearing under main menu when the top-level menu item is hovered over. With the Megamenu, all items from two levels deep are shown on hover with the menu stretching full width across the menu width.
