Hello,

I was wondering if the top header menu supports the mega menu drop down, or a drop down at all. It doesn’t appear to support it from what I am seeing. Neither the Mega menu or just a “traditional” drop down. It seems like the JS required to make the mega menu show/hide just isn’t being applied to the header menu.

If my assumptions are correct please tell me how I can make the mega menu work on the top header menu. Thanks!

I don’t think the mega menu can work on the tip top menu, but dropdowns do if you set them up in your appearance > menus in the normal wordpress fashion.

I think the way the theme is setup, you can choose a different header style which swaps the locations of the tip to menu with the normal “main menu” (at least you can on Newsmag, and if not in latest version of Newspaper, should be in Newspaper 5 ‘coming real soon now’ !).

Not sure that helps. Just a comment for a Saturday where I should be working on something else but burnt out on that 🙂

I hear you, thanks for the input. It shouldn’t be to hard to enable on that top header menu. I can style accordingly, just need to turn it on! The code is all being outputted just missing the javascript function.

Hi,

The megamenu was not designed to work on top menu and you will need custom work for this and it is not an easy task, unfortunately we cannot provide any type of custom work at this time as we work hard on development, updates, fixes and support, but you can hire a freelancer to do this for you from sites like – http://studio.envato.com/

If you want you can change the header style and use only the main menu to the top – http://screencast.com/t/T1AWMrOP – http://screencast.com/t/9hwZ56Fmn

Hmm, not insanely hard as all the code is being outputted already(as stated in the above post).

Anyway, if someone is looking to do this it isn’t so bad.

Throw the JS in the header and the CSS in a style sheet and boom, mostly done. Very little JS to make the output work, the rest is CSS as per your needs. Good luck!
