Menu Restore

Is there a way to restore the navigation menu structure back to its original state?

Have you installed any modules?  especially third party modules?  Modules will add to the menu structure.

Please note that uninstalling modules will cause lost of data.  Where are you in development of the site?

Yes I have installed a range of mods and the site has been active for a month or so now. My biggest problem is that I moved the menu to the inactive area but now want to get some back but do not know exactly what was included in each module. My guess is that a bit of trial and error on my development site will be ahead of me :)

This is what I suggest; might be a bit of work but it will let you know the original set up.  Since I don't know how things are configured on your site I can not give precise.  You can create a subdirectory under the root of the site; test_dophin, for example.  Install your version of Dolphin in that subdirectory and then install all the modules that you installed on the production site.  You will then see how the menu was set up originally.  To get to the test install just type in the URL bar http://mysite.tld/test_dolphin; replacing mysite.tld with your actual domain of course.

 I think your wanting to "restore" your "original" items back to your navigation as you posted.

This what I do.

Bring up the navigation menu, on your best browser, and press (CTRL and -) this will zoom your screen out so you can manage all the freaking links.

To your OP, no, there is no simple way.

Thanks for the advice it is very much appreciated 

Thanks for all the advice. I just wanted to let people know the solution I used for future reference, which was a combination of the suggested solutions plus one of my own.

Firstly I was lucky enough to have a development version of my site, so was able to uninstall and re-install the modules that I wanted to restore the menus for. The downside is that I lost the data but as mentioned it was my development platform, so no big issue.

Second, I got the menu in order that I needed, changed a few types and the list of menu options that I wanted users access to. 

Third, from my cPanel and myPHPadmin, I exported the table sys_menu_top from my development platform and imported it to the live platform and magic, my menu system was restored :)

Thanks everyone for all your help.
