[theme-reviewers] custom menus

[Edward Caissie]

Yulian -

Have a look at the codex page:
http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_nav_menu

Try a custom 'fallback_cb' that includes the `<ul>` element you need, for
example:

function my_wp_list_categories() {
>   ?><ul><?php wp_list_categories(); ?></ul><?php
> }
>

Of course, you will likely need to write the CSS specific to your theme
still to utilize both the custom menu and the fallback wp_list_categories,
but this could help ...

Quickly tested using this: <?php wp_nav_menu( array( 'container_class' =>
'menu-header', 'theme_location' => 'primary', 'fallback_cb' =>
'my_wp_list_categories' ) ); ?>

... in Twenty Ten.
