Help with... what? You want us to decipher an error in your code that is part of the plan you have already elaborately planned out and tried to program correct? If not and you just want to "c da codes pls", you're at the wrong place.

    void add(const Menu& m){ subMenus.push_back(m);
   
  }
};

would you be kind enough to help me out ?

Take a close look at your main() function. Where does it start? Where does it end? General advice: Try and deal with compiler errors, no matter how many there seem to be. Always start with the first one, try to figure out what it means, correct it, re-compile your code and take a look on how many errors that took away. A lot of compiler errors spot out very clearly (at least) what kind of problem you have and where to look for it. If there are several of them, there's a good chance that some are just consequent errors of the first.

I'd suggest you re-learn or review the basics of what a class is.
A lot of what you have makes no sense.

In main, you have a function declaration:
SportsClothingMenu mysport();
Remove the paranthesises if you intended to create a SportsClothingMenu object.

In _populate, you do even more bizzare stuff:

Menu soccerClothesMenu("soccer");
//...add soccor clothes to soccerClothesMenu
sportsClothingMenu.add( soccerClothesMenu );

You complete ignore the member variable and create a new instance of a Menu which will be destroyed when it goes out of scope (ie, the function ends).

I was trolling since I was bored that day. Sorry if I made you upset. Anyway I'd give you the answers to your questions, but they've already been answered ^. I highly suggest you read a tutorial on OOP and one on function/file scope. Also make sure to view your code for errors in brackets, and also spelling (Menu.h, line 7, you spelled namespace wrong.)
