Hi,

Are you sure you changed the layout.master file in your skin? It should be located in \data\sites\[1]\skins\(Name of your skin)\layout.master (where [1] is your site-id, it is more than likely to be 1).

Once you get the menu to show up vertically, you will need to style the vertical menu in CSS so it doesn't just look like a bulleted list. You can grab examples of this styling from one of the other skins. Further, I doubt you will want two vertical menus so I suggest you remove the PageMenu from your layout.master and add TopLevelOnly=False to your SiteMenu control.

HTH,
Joe
