<p>By default wordpress menu system, wordpress can only automatically add/remove <strong>top-level page</strong> to/from menus</p>
<ul>
<li>When <strong>publish</strong> top-level page then add it into menus</li>
<li>When <strong>move</strong> top-level page to trash then remove it from menus</li>
<li>When <strong>restore</strong> top-level page then add it into menus</li>
