Custom Django Wagtailmenus Flatmenu Template

I am using https://github.com/rkhleics/wagtailmenus for my Django Wagtail menus, but can't seem to figure out how to use a custom template for my flat_menu. I followed the guides but I think I may be doing something wrong.

My flat_menu template is in a directory menus/top_sub_menu.html, where top_sub_menu is the handle of the menu I created.

top_sub_menu.html

{% load menu_tags %}
{% if menu_items %}
  <ul class="c-links c-theme-ul">
    {% for item in menu_items %}
      <li>
        <a href="{{ item.href }}">{{ item.text }}</a> {% if item.has_children_in_menu %}{% sub_menu item %}{% endif %}
      </li>
    {% endfor %}
  </ul>
{% endif %}

header.html

{% load menu_tags %}
...
{% flat_menu 'top_sub_menu' %}
...

I have a custom main_menu.html and a sub_menu.html in the same directory and they work, so I know my menu directory is in correct location. Thank you.

The template location behaviour described in the README for the {% flat_menu %} tag (https://github.com/rkhleics/wagtailmenus#4-using-the--flat_menu--tag) was only introduced in version 2.2.0. You should be able to use your custom template by utilising the template argument, though. For example:

In header.html

{% load menu_tags %}
...
{% flat_menu 'top_sub_menu' template="menus/top_sub_menu.html" %}
...
