You can use [[LINK href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/custom-menu-shortcode/"]]Custom menu shortcode plugin[[/LINK]] and add shortcode ( Ex : [custommenu menu=Menu] ) to your pages.

I can help you do it with or without plugin if you want.

To clearify your question: do you want <em>two</em> menus, one under the other, on <em>some</em>? Or do you you want to <em>replace</em> the header menu on some pages?

Rowela Alzona answers:

Go to your functions.php and add these lines:


register_nav_menu( 'additional-menu', __( 'Additional Menu' ) );


And paste these lines to your header of some pages.


<?php wp_nav_menu( array( 'theme_location' => 'additional-menu' ) ); ?>


You can add custom menu's by going to your dashboard > Appearance> Menus
And thats it all set.
