Styling on custom menu

[mitchcan]

Hello,

I’ve got a situation where I need to use a custom menu in the before-kleo-main area. When I place a widget with a custom menu there, even with the same settings as the main menu, none of the default styling applies (the little blue dot for notifications, the avatar for my account, any of the icons, etc…)

How do you recommend I go about getting that default styling to apply to the custom menu in the before kleo main area?

Thank you.

Hello, i see, you can add icons to it with css, but the avatar would need more than css, if you want i can help you with the css for the icons and a bit styling to the menu, if you want just let me know which icons do you want for which items

For now, as I am testing this out, I’ll just use the same icons I have in the Primary menu. Are you pulling icons from fontello? Like ‘E80E’ for the mail envelope? Or ‘E835’ for the ‘home’ icon?

If so, please let me know the base structure I’d use to place each icon in the custom menu, and I can change out the icon id as needed.

So you were saying the “kleo-menu kleo-user_avatar-nav” might need some additional code to work in custom menus? How would that work?

Thanks for your help. Have a great day.

Hi @mitchcan,

The My account menu + avatar and notifications + ajax it was designed to work only on the header.It can be restyled and adapted to work in the sidebar but isn’t an easy task. It’s more than few CSS lines.

If you really need to achieve this functionality please send us an email to development team dev@seventhqueen.com for a quote.

Thanks Laura,

Hey Radu, I understand. I’m not looking for anything super custom like that. But help me with this, if you will…

I thought if I used the ‘main menu options’ meta box, I could change the menus that displayed in the Primary and Secondary areas on that specific page (see the attached screencap). That would seem to resolve my issue by not needing custom menu placement.

In this case, if I make changes to the menus I want to display for this page, it is NOT reflected in real life, the default Primary and Secondary menus still display.

Am I thinking wrong on how this works? I thought I had it working that way on another page?

Thanks for your direction.

Hi,

On my local install, I can use and have custom menu assigned even on the BuddyPress components page.

So, I saw that you have many plugins, this can be caused by this, or by some modification from the child theme, try to de-activate child theme by activating parent and i recommend you to deactivate all plugins then check the menu assignation to see that this will work, then enable plugins back one by one to identify what causes that.

Cheers

I understand, but I have every plugin deactivated except K Elements 4.1 and Visual Composer 5.0.1, and it works fine. The minute I activate BuddyPress 2.7.4, the menus go crazy wrong on those BP pages.

This happens both with Kleo and with the Kleo child themes.

There has to be some conflict in Kleo 4.16.2 and BP 2.74 related to menus, no?

I have left the site in this exact state so that you may see what I am talking about.

Thanks Radu, have a good day.

[Radu]

No, there is no compatibility issue between those, on my install it works.

Have a good day

OK, then please explain how if I ONLY have Kleo 4.1.7 (not child), and the most recent versions of KElements, VC and Slider Rev active, and NO other plugins, menus work on those pages.

The minute I activate BuddyPress 2.7.4, the menus DO NOT work on those pages (specifically, they display whatever is listed in the admin metabox as ‘Primary’ menu option on that specific page, and display that one menu in ALL three locations – Kleo Top, Primary, and Secondary).

See screencaps.

How is that?

Thank you.

Thanks.

Hey,

So it’s been a couple weeks since the last update, and over a month since I first reported, have you been able to make any progress on why this bug happens?

It’s keeping me from rolling out something for a new site (including buying another kleo theme). 🙂

Thanks.

[Radu]

WE will be fixed in next update that will be released those days.

I have updated to 4.1.8 and in initial testing this issue seems to be resolved. Thanks for continuing the great support of a solid product.

Now I’m off to buy another license for a new project. 🙂

Have a great day!

[Radu]

You’re welcome

Have a nice week

Best regards
