Hey all,

I am trying to create a dropdown button next to the board button. I have been following this tutorial [Adding a dropdown to an agile board](https://developer.atlassian.com/jiradev/jira-applications/jira-software/tutorial-adding-a-dropdown-to-an-agile-board). However, the second web-item is not being drawn when I click on the dropdown. Here is my code:

```auto
<web-section key="my_links_section" location="my_links_link" weight="10"/>
    <web-item key="my_links_link" section="jira.agile.board.tools" weight="47">
        <label key="boardbutton.label" />
        <link linkId="my_links_link">http://www.atlassian.com</link>
    </web-item>
    <web-item key="board-link" section="my_links_link/my_links_section" weight="10">
        <label key="boardbutton.sublabel" />
        <link linkId="board-link">/plugins/servlet/main-page?boardId=${board.id}</link>
    </web-item>

```

What is going wrong? Do I need to create a velocity template to draw the dropdown? Do I need a web-panel?

Cheers,  
Justin
