Sub-menu two columns

I've ended up with a long drop down list off one of the main menu options, how can I get the sub-menu to appear in two columns? I have a custom CSS plugin so just need to know what the magic code would be.

Tip: yesterday I installed max megamenu plug-in and works with GeneratePress; first look the video tutorial.
With that it is easy to have a two, three, four columns menu.

Bye.

That could definitely work, Martin :)

Thanks for the tip, Damiaan!

The code from Martin really sounded interesting, but unfortunately didn't work for me. Sadly I can't figure out where the problem is.

http://thebricktime.de/ is the site and the menu I am trying to get in two columns is "bricksites".

Just took another look at that code and it should definitely work.

Can you implement the tutorial and let me know so I can inspect your site?

Yes, I also think it should work, but it doesn't.

It's still implemented, I didn't took it out.

I'm not seeing the menu item classes added to those menu items?

I added the css-class to bricksites in the main menu.

You're welcome :)

Hm...
It didn't work

Okay, I thought you just need to add the css to the parent link. I added the css-class "sub-menu-columns" now the every sub-menu link, but it's still not working

And that's what I put in the css

.sub-menu {
width: 410px;
}

.sub-menu-columns ul.sub-menu li {
display: inline-block;
float: left;
width: 200px;
}

.sub-menu-columns ul.sub-menu li:nth-child(odd) {
float: left;
margin-right: 10px;
}

.sub-menu-columns ul.sub-menu li:nth-child(even) {
float: right;
}

Try this as the CSS:

.main-navigation ul ul.sub-menu {
    width: 410px;
}

ul.sub-menu li.sub-menu-columns {
    display: inline-block;
    float: left;
    width: 200px;
}

ul.sub-menu li.sub-menu-columns:nth-child(odd) {
    float: left;
    margin-right: 10px;
}

ul.sub-menu li.sub-menu-columns:nth-child(even) {
    float: right;
}
