Hello Del,

First make a Child Theme and activate it before you go making the following changes. You will have two new files functions.php and style.css .

After you are done with Child Theme set up copy and paste the following piece of PHP code in your functions.php file.
```
function photo_perfect_add_category_navigation(){
   $show_category_dropdown = photo_perfect_get_option( 'show_category_dropdown' );
   if ( true !== $show_category_dropdown ) {
     return;
   }
   ?>
   <div id="category-menu" class="clear-fix header-navigation">
     <div class="container">
       <button class="nav-list-btn"><i class="fa fa-list"></i><span><?php _e( 'Category', 'photo-perfect' ); ?></span></button>
       <div class="category-list-wrapper">
         <ul>
         <?php wp_list_categories( 'title_li=&depth=2' ); ?>
         </ul>
       </div>
     </div>
   </div>
   <?php
 }
```
Now put following line of CSS code in style.css file.
```
.header-navigation ul .toggled-on {
    display: block;
 }

button, input[type="button"]:focus, input[type="reset"]:focus, input[type="submit"]:focus, .comment-reply-link:focus{
   outline: none !important;
}
```
This should do the trick appearing the sub-menu categories as dropdown like the one in main Menu.

Your entire functions.php code with above custom code should be look like this.
```
<?php
/**
* Child Theme functions and definitions
*
*/
/**
* Loading Parent theme stylesheet
*
*/
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'photoperfect_child_enqueue_styles' );
function photoperfect_child_enqueue_styles() {
wp_enqueue_style( 'photoperfect-parent-style', get_template_directory_uri() . '/style.css' );
}

function photo_perfect_add_category_navigation(){
   $show_category_dropdown = photo_perfect_get_option( 'show_category_dropdown' );
   if ( true !== $show_category_dropdown ) {
     return;
   }
   ?>
   <div id="category-menu" class="clear-fix header-navigation">
     <div class="container">
       <button class="nav-list-btn"><i class="fa fa-list"></i><span><?php _e( 'Category', 'photo-perfect' ); ?></span></button>
       <div class="category-list-wrapper">
         <ul>
         <?php wp_list_categories( 'title_li=&depth=2' ); ?>
         </ul>
       </div>
     </div>
   </div>
   <?php
 }
```
