Mega Menu

Hi everyone,
I’m new, I purchased the Newspaper theme yesterday and I’m very happy with it.

A quick question… I really like the appearance of the Mega Menu when used with subcategories, but I’d prefer not to use subcategories just for the menu because they would alter the taxonomy that I have in mind for my website. So, I was wondering if there is a way to achieve the same result by manually building a menù with link and sublinks.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi,

Unfortunately the mega menu was not designed to work like that. The best you can try is to add the category in the menu as an menu-item then add your categories that would replace the subcategories and set them to be a mega menu: http://screencast.com/t/W4DT5DS7nV Note that if you this method you will have to style the mega menu window to fit well into site because it will not look well: http://screencast.com/t/stYn2m7wNMI
I recommend you to use subcategories if you want to use the mega menu feature or add the categories as individual menu items and set them as a mega menu.

Hi Lucian,
thank you so much for your kind reply!
I actually tried the soulution that you suggested and realized that in that case the menu shift to the right… I thought about using a negative margin to fix that, but I did’nt manage to make it work. Could you suggest which element is the right one to style?

Thanks again

Hi,

Please try this: http://screencast.com/t/jdD4n3nAq

.menu-header-container .sf-menu .menu-item .td-mega-menu .sub-menu , .menu-header-container .sf-menu .menu-item .sub-menu .td_block_inner {
width: 800px !important;
}

.menu-header-container .sf-menu .menu-item .td-mega-menu .sub-menu
 {
position: relative;
left: 140px !important;
}

Change the width value and the left value for position as you need. Note that you will need to make this adjustments to each screen width in order to make it look good, use the media query snippets to style the mega menu for each screen.

Thanks
