Hi,
Some time ago I asked you if there was a way to display all my relationship categories in the drop down menu on howdoidate.com and you said it couldn’t be done with your theme.
I then discovered the Uber Menu plugin on Codecanyon that could display all my relationship categories and bought and installed it yesterday.
Unfortunately the automatic install of the menu didn’t work but they explain how to do it manually.
The problem is it really is beyond me to do this manually in the way they describe although it would probably be straightforward for one of you guys.
Could you please take a look and let me know if you could do it and if so how much you’d charge.
You can see the menu install instructions here http://howdoidate.com/wp-admin/themes.php?page=ubermenu-settings.
You laready have my wordpress admin username and password.
Thank you.
Tagdiv doesnt do custom work, so likely need to hire developer to help remove the default call to menu in header.php and put in shortcode or other element to hook into wordpress menu system, and..or.. Mod the style.css and functions.php to add the plugins stuff to theme.
Hi,
Your ubermenu has to be activated on one spot – http://screencast.com/t/Ad8gK6Wdzn
Then set the location to 2 – http://screencast.com/t/wRk0cEfQi
I’ve done that for you, the Ubermenu is on place, – http://screencast.com/t/7KZdxcx5 to get rid of the theme search icon you have to delete it from the code – http://screencast.com/t/bY4EGHkKli and modify the menu span from 11 to 12 – http://screencast.com/t/AjsvfDyAL68Z
For the menu elements setup you have to check their documentation, i didn’t do much testing with Ubermenu and i cannot provide help on them.
Thank you, Emil G.
Hi Emil,
Thank you but I’ve decided to abandon Uber Menu – far too complicated. I should have known better when it said it was simple to use. When someone says that it usually means its difficult to use.
Anyway I’ve found a free plugin that definitely is easy to use called Max Mega Menu and it’s FREE!
I’m using it now and you can see it here on my site howdoidate.com by clicking the Relationships topic in the menu.
Here is the link to the developers site http://www.maxmegamenu.com/
I can highly recommend this to any other Newspaper theme user who is looking for this kind of mega menu!
Regards
Derek
Emil,
Changed my mind – had to delete Max Mega Menu plugin because after installation it was making the site load very slowly so I’m withdrawing my recommendation.
Any chance you’ll be offering something similar in a future update of the Newspaper theme?
Hi,
We plan to improve the Mega Menu in a future update, we’ll add the possibility to use a page as a mega menu. If no issues appear it will be added in version 5.0, else in one of the updates that will be released after.
Thank you, Emil G.
Do you have an ETA yet for Newspaper 5.0? I either will have to replace the bundled menu with UberMenu, or wait for 5.0. Hugely important to be able to add pages in a “Mega Menu” style.
Thanks.
Hi,
We hope to release Newspaper 5 in 1-2 months and also there will be an option to load a page megamenu.
Thanks!
hi everyone …
i have seen the page megamenu option in the manual og the new theme version. the thing is, that i do undestand how to integrate a page via it’s id into the menu. but what i do NOT understand is, what i would have to do with a page to show up the things i would like to see …
i (of course guess) that i will have to create a page 😉 … But whats next?
———————
So i have tried to install (once again) the uber menu. And i must say, that i came just a few steps more ahead than in my past unsuccessfull tests. I made it appear in my main menu. and it shows up as its configured now. that is really a success for my skill-level! 🙂
But: i do have a problem with a “double-menu” on mobile devices. i cannot find out how to unattach the uber menu from mobile devices. I have found the link to the integration manual on the uber website. but this integration is for the old version of the theme. so i cannot “simply” uncheck the uber menu for my mobile menu, as described there.
the old theme version had 4 menu locations? (header, main, footer, mobile) is that correct? and version 6 only has three of them? (header, main, footer)
so there is no more specific mobile location menu in version 6? how could i get rid off the uber menu on other devcices than desktop an tablet versions of my site?
best regards 🙂

noone?
Hi,
1. You just create the page, find the page id and copy it on the mega menu. The page content will appear in the Mega Menu.
2. You could use css to hide uber menu on mobile devices, we use this on the theme top menu. You just have to find the class used on it’s container and use media queries, ex:
@media(max-width: 767px) {
.ubermenuclass {
display: none;
}
}If you can’t find it please provide the site url and i’ll take a look.
Thank you!
