I'm creating custom navbar links like so:

```

<record id="aboutus_page_link" model="website.menu">  
 
<field name="name">About Us</field>      
<field name="url">/page/about-us</field>      
<field name="parent_id" ref="website.main_menu" />      
<field name="sequence" type="int">10</field>    

</record>

```

And am wondering if it's possible to create dropdowns within those links. Possibly creating a new record with some parent reference, or something?

Top menu(Drop down)

<record id="menu_parent" model="website.menu"> 
    <field name="name">Parent Menu</field> 
    <field name="parent_id" ref="website.main_menu"/> 
    <field name="sequence" type="int">50</field> 
</record>

Child menu (Drop down content)

<record id="menu_child" model="website.menu">

class Bar(http.Controller): 
    @http.route('/foo', type='http', website=True, auth="public") 
    def page_certificate_verification(self, **kw):
        return request.render('Your_module.your_template')

             <div class="container">
                 <!--Your Contents-->

@shameem@aχon Thank you so much! This is EXACTLY what I was looking for. I knew it would be something easy like this!

@shameem@aχon Regarding your custom controller, when I `return request.render('theme_worldbuilders.aboutus.xml')` I still get a 404. I think I'm not doing this right. Also, my aboutus.xml is in views/innerpages/, how am I supposed to reference that?

You pass the file name instead of template id

You create a template in the file aboutus.xml

then

return request.render('Your_module.your_template_id')
