Please, someone tell me if there is a replacement for the rubbish Solpart menu, the menu with the small arrow to administer a module in DotNetNuke?
I have been using DNN for some time now and I would love to know if there is not a better way to get this menu working. I cannot believe DNN would let something as buggy as that out!
Thanks
You can use any menu for that drop down. You'd just swap out the solpartmenu for the one you want in the container you create. Here is a blog post outlining some of the menu options available. I'd suggest taking a look into each one of these and see which would be a good fit for you.

Below is one (slightly updated) example from How to use RadMenu instead of the default solpartactions menu
Open an existing container for edit (a Default DNN container will work fine).
Register the RADMENUACTIONS tag by adding the following line of code: <%@ Register TagPrefix="dnn" TagName="RADMENUACTIONS" Src="~/DesktopModules/RadMenu/RadMenuActions.ascx" %>
Replace <dnn:ACTIONS ... /> with <dnn:RADMENUACTIONS ... />
Set additional properties for RadMenu if desired. For example you can set the Skin property: <dnn:RADMENUACTIONS runat="server" id="dnnRADMENUACTIONS" Skin="CssGreen" />
