RTSplitMenu Information
The split menu system uses the mainmenu by default and this menu is configured in the administrator. For this to function correctly understand that the ‘top level’ menu items will show up as the horizontal buttons across the top of the template. For sub menu items, assign Parent Item to these top menus to the top-level item. These will then show up on in a submenu in the side navigation when you click on a top-level item.
Installation - Joomla 1.5
