Thanks in advance for your help. Arathol")* Hi, Before creating your menus, you can set the default options for them in the tab Display of the configuration. Then, all your new menus will use these options as default. Then, once created, they are independent from the default options and you can edit their options via the menu Display->Content menus. It's not possible to change an option of all your menus at once.

I suppose i just better be sparing with the amount of menu links i have for now while testing the display options. Thanks!
