I am looking for a solution for the following problem: We have a horizontal main navigation showing some of the most important topics covered by the website and a tab called "All Topics". So far so good, but we like to show another tab containing further navigational items . We do not want to call it "More ..." because it does not make sense calling it like this after already having the option "All Topics":

wireframe example

Any ideas how to name the last tab? It contains items "Videos", "Popular Posts", "FAQ", "Community".

I would argue that your solution is fine.

Your site revolves around providing content on a set of topics. The most popular topics a user can visit have their dedicated tab, the rest of the topics are however displayed in another tab where all topics are listed.

The rest of the site; Contact, FAQ, About etc, that isn't part of a topic must be accessible also though. Having a dropdown labelled More is fine for this, showing content that can't be ordered in any of the topics.

However, if you still want to change it I would suggest Other -- Cueing that there is content that differs from the main content.

    This is really just different words, can you provide some explanation as to why these are more suitable than 'more'? – JonW Dec 19 '12 at 08:47
  • @anilkumble789 Thanks, I like "Discover more". I think we will try that. – Steffen Kastner Dec 20 '12 at 11:51
  • @JonW We want to avoid the term "More" because during usability tests it confused users: They were wondering what more is to come after having the tab before named "All Topics". – Steffen Kastner Dec 20 '12 at 11:53
