In menu creating dialog, Wordpress says: "Your theme supports 1 menu. Select which menu you would like to use.."
Why is that so?

Hey,
This seems to be a bug which can easily be fixed. Open up /framework/helper_functions/nav_menu.php and find this code:
add_action( 'init', 'register_my_menu' ); function register_my_menu() { register_nav_menu( 'theme-menu', __( 'Theme Menu' ) ); }Replace it with this code:
add_action( 'init', 'register_my_menu' ); function register_my_menu() { register_nav_menus( array( 'top-menu' => 'Top Navigation Menu', 'theme-menu' => 'Main Navigation Menu' ) ); }You then need to set the menu locations and items in WP admin -> Appearance -> Menus :)
Cheers,
James

hello where do I find

Sorry but I do not know where to find

If you use the updated version of Newscast (Version 2.0) you'll find nav_menu.php in your theme directory under:
Newscast > framework > helper_functions > nav_menu.php
please note every ">" indicates that it's located in a subdirectory. Please open nav_menu.php with an editor and change the code.

I spoke too soon... I've replaced the code in /framework/helper_functions/nav_menu.php and I've defined the two menus via the WordPress Menus dashboard.
Unfortunately, the same menu is populating both menus on the site:
http://173.83.124.155/The menu I've titled, "Main Nav" is populating both menu areas. The menu I've titled, "Smaller Top Nav" includes different pages and is selected as the "Top Navigation Menu," but it's not populating that area.
Do I need to modify the header.php file to accommodate these custom menus?

Hey,
If you've changed the code (as I posted above), then go to WP admin -> Appearance -> Menus and remove the option on the top left for whichever menu you don't want to show.

I changed the code as James suggested. Good: Now my Appearance>menu page shows that it supports two menus. I made one menu for pages (p menu) and one for categories (c menu). I added a page to the one and a cat to the other. I added both menus to the "Theme locations" box: p menu on top, c menu on the bottom. When I refresh my site, both top and bottom menus are showing the p menu item. I just bought the theme yesterday. Is this a bug or a feature?
