SharePoint 2013: Managed Navigation not working when inheriting from parent site

Problem

You're using SharePoint 2013 Managed Navigation in your site collection. You create new subsite (e.g., Team site or Community site) and on the new site creation form on "Navigation Inheritance" section you select Yes in "Use the top link bar from the parent site?". Still you still don't see the Managed Navigation on the newly created site. 

 

Solution

You need to create the site without Navigation Inheritance, so select No to Use the top link bar from the parent site?.

After creating the site, go to Navigation Settings of the site, and select Display the same navigation items as the parent site.
