I think the problem is that Tiki itself doesn't provide for more than two levels: section and option. Tiki's menu code would have to have "subsection" level items for PHPLayers to find and use. Don't know what would be involved in making this modification, though.

After a few days of deciphering code I found a solution .

in \templates\tiki-admin_options.tpl find

option value="s" {if $type eq 's'}selected="selected"{/if}>{tr}section{/tr} /option>  (line 27)

add this line beneath it:

option value="p" {if $type eq 'p'}selected="selected"{/if}>{tr}submenu{/tr} /option>

then in \lib\smarty_tiki\function.phplayers.php find:

if ($cd["type"] == 'o' and $indented) {        (line 70)
				$output.= ".";

add these two lines beneath it:

} elseif ($cd["type"] == 'p') {
				$output.= "..";

and thats it! You can keep adding more sub menus by using a different value in the two files
(p in this case) and put another . in the output in function.phplayers.php, eg:

} elseif ($cd["type"] == 'r') {	
				$output.= "...";

(i had to take off the < to make it show up here)
