Does anyone know how to create a submenu using CMS? I am trying to add a

anything else I should do? Google around CMS but did not find anything

This is not really anything to do with CMS, it's more to do with how the Aries site is set up.

If you look here https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/aries/site/trunk/ you will see that there is content directory (where most of the content is) and there is a templates directory. In templates you will find a file called navigation.mdtext. This is the file you need to modify to make things appear in the submenus.

You may also want to take a look at the javascript file that deals with proper opening and closing of menus - this is content/resources/menu.js. You shouldn't need to look at this.

When you have this working it would be helpful to document it here: http://aries.apache.org/development/maintainingthewebpages.html. It looks like I forgot :-/
