I wanted to share some feedback regarding the recent mega menu update. Unfortunately, it seems that the update has caused some issues with the mobile menus that were previously implemented.
One problem is that the addition of chevrons has disrupted the overall design. While this can be resolved by using CSS to hide them, it would be great to have an option directly available in the editor to manage this.
Another issue arises when a menu has submenus. Clicking on the subpages becomes impossible, as the top page automatically opens instead. This is clearly demonstrated in the attached video.
Additionally, the update has messed up the indentation of the menu points, which is quite problematic.
I really hope these issues can be addressed soon, as they are currently preventing us from updating numerous websites.
I think the changes are quite major so backwards compatibility might be hard (just a guess though).
I had a few messed up navs after the update but somehow, just duplicating my nav so it gets a new ID + regenerating css fixed most of them for me.
Not sure if I just got lucky but might be worth a shot.
On one site I deleted the nav, starting working on a new one, then restored the old one and the issues were gone. Kinda hit n miss I guess but yeah, figured I’d chime in in case it fixes some of your navs as well.
Oh nice. This fixed it partly. Thanks @manc! Now, when I click on the left side (just before the nav text), the submenu opens up correctly. However, I’m still trying to figure out how to make the submenu open instead of the page itself, when I click on the parent page nav text for the first time.
If anyone has experience with previous versions and knows how this functionality worked before, I would greatly appreciate your insights.
Yes, the behavior is different now because it is much more accessible in terms of AY11 than before.
The dropdown toggle opens the dropdown, especially if the dropdown item itself is a link.
Alternatively, you can remove the link on the top-level dropdown item so that the dropdown also opens when you click on the text. This requires a slightly different menu structure but is straightforward and easy to use.
