How to delete items from menue drop down

How can I delete menue items from the drop down menue? I checked all the different possibilities (that I am aware off), but to no success (Clear template cache, design menue set, LR albums)

ftp://www.eckart-bartnik.de@www.eckart-bartnik.de/menue_items.png

I am glad that with 1.1 I can now arrange Albums according to their slug.
Thanks for your help!

By the way I submitted this question already twice, but it did not show after hitting 'submit'.

Re: How to delete items from menue drop down

your image won't come through to the forum the way you've sent it. It need to be a url (not an ftp address) in between img tags

you should be able to remove menu items that you've added to the menu set by clicking on the remove link for that item.
If the item is an album or album set in a top-level galleries folder, then you'll either need to remove the album/set or edit it to hide the album or set.

Dear Rod, thanks for your reply. The problem is, that the faulty menue items only show up on my website in the popup menue and nowhere else.

Re: How to delete items from menue drop down

ok, looks like you've got multiple albums showing up in your Portfolios top-level galleries.
In Backlight, go to Publisher > Top-Level Galleries > and click on the Portfolios top-level. Click on View Albums.
You should see a list of all the albums under that top-level, all listed with the number of photos in each album.
You'll probably see some duplicates that show zero photos. Delete these by clicking on the album name. Scroll to the bottom of the resulting page and delete the album.

Repeat for the other duplicates.

Dear Rod,
I already looked at the Top level Galleries. As the image shows, here all is fine. The problem must be somewhere else...

Hi, can you email me a Backlight admin login so that I can look into this?
