Menu not dropping below navbar

[Anonymous]

Ryan,

I absolutely love the plugin. I have found one minor, though, that I hope you can help with.

First of all, on my site, the suckerfish dropdown doesn’t drop below the original nav bar item. It covers it up, taking away the ability to access the parent page. I’ve tweaked all I can think to tweak in the CSS, but just can’t work it out.

I’ll be grateful for any help you can provide on this.

I’ll leave the menus as-is on my site in case you get a chance to take a look.

I love your implementation ” title=”Smiley” /> The blue styling looks brilliant. I’ll take a look now and see if I can figure out a solution for you and will post back later.

I’m stumped. When I try to fix one thing in your menu, something else goes wrong ” title=”Sad” /> I’ll leave it and come back to it later. Hopefully settling my brain will help bring the solution to the surface ” title=”Smiley” />

Ryan,

Thanks for taking a look, and thanks for the compliment on the colors. It does look great and fits right in with the rest of the theme.

RE: the dropdown issue, I’m hoping it isn’t a core theme issue. I don’t like fiddling around too much in the theme’s framework. I also wondered if it might not be something to do with my theme’s CSS, but if it is, it isn’t obvious. I’ve tweaked everything I thought might do the trick.

Anyway, I’m grateful for any time you can spare to look into it.

Hi Jonathan,
I gave up on integrating it with your theme for the mean time and rebuilt the menu to look like yours from scratch. Here’s the final result … https://ryan.hellyer.kiwi/test/wordpress1/babcock-style/

Do you mind if I can include this style with the plugin? I plan to add a few more styles over time and this would be a good one for that purpose.

It’s definitely not a core issue with WordPress, but I’m pretty sure it’s a problem related to the way your theme is inadvertently styling things inside the menu. I’ll see if I can get my new version to work with your theme and will post back later on.

Jonathan – I’ve knocked together a very crude mockup of your menu jerry rigged into your theme. I removed a bunch of scripts and other stuff which was taking too long to load while I was testing, but otherwise it’s essentially a replica of your home page.

I changed the #nav and .stopper in your theme to #znav and .zstopper and added some styling to them to fit the menu into the correct position. Another option is to replace those styles with the ones I’ve used for #znav and .zstopper.

Let me know if you have any more problems or if there are any issues with the demo above.

No problem, I’m happy to help ” title=”Smiley” />

I’m assuming you must be working on it at the moment as it’s more than “a littleâ€
