Just in case someone in Wordpress reads the comment. This new menu is so complicated that I needed to watch this very informative video to comprehend how to do things! I needed an hour to make the first menu. And I think it's due to two different issues: UI experience is poor and it is more complicated if you work in a laptop (you can not see all information together in the screen) . Thank you for this great video!

Does the drop down menu work well with responsive mobile situations

Hi Jamie, I'm in Boston, MA, since half way through this intro great video of how to add a Creating a New Menu. I notice my plus '+' symbol is on the Right side of the Navigation Block. A few questions: 1. How to switch the plus '+' symbol from Right to Left? Or is part of WordPress? 2. I notice that your menu items are not setup to be linked, on mine, I can see that my menu items under the List View are already linked to the page. Does this mean all pages are linked together? 3. Regarding Site Title. Widgets are not shown in my Dashboard. How do I add a Site Title within the Navigation Bar? Thanks for all your great videos! Francis

Great video and thanks. I notice that the spacer block changes from width to height. In the nav block its width but put anywhere else it height. Any ideas why? Or how to choose between either width or height?

@jamiewp

2 жыл бұрын

Hi, i would need to dig a little deeper, but i think it only is available as a width option in the Navigation Block. I agree it might be nice in some situations to be able to choose.

Great explanation on the state of this block. Though it does have me worried that this is the direction WordPress are going in, if this is taking over from "classic" navigation, it's got a long way to go. At the moment it feels very flimsy, almost like I'm hacking the theme, or I'm using something that was built as a poc for a tech demo and not something that was ready for core.

I think the custom links doesnt work this way anymore. I want to be able to add a naked heading (is that what its called) just a title called Products. i have no actual products page but i have 4 pages that are all my different products. I need just a heading that will then drop down to 4 pages as submenus. I havent found any examples of people achieving this with the FSE yet.

How do you change the sub menu flow direction. As of now, its just flowing to the right, I dont want to go into the JavaScript...

not bad, but how to i get it to add a category, then that category to spit out and show all the pages within that category as links, rather than just going to the big category page?

Great! In the skeleton approach, you showed how to make Home the page that opens when a person first enters the site. Can you tell me how that is done now?

HI Richard. When you are within the Site Editor you can edit any Navigation block (i.e. "menu") that you see there. In this video Jamie shows editing by switching to the Header template but in general we've moved away from having a dedicated "Menus" page in favour of the direct site editing enabled by Full Site Editing. The idea is that whatever you see in the site editor should match what you (and your site visitors!) see on the front of your website.

@@DaveOnWP cheers Dave, that's good news, always found having to edit the menu separately a bit clunky..

It doesn't seem possible to add a submenu which is not a page link. Disappointing. Even in the old menu system it was "hacky" to achieve that. EDIT: I figured out how to "unlink" the submenu block. This removes the value from the href attribute which means the block remains a clickable link which acts like a refresh button. This is undesirable. Instead the href attribute should be removed altogether. Can you please fix this?

Imagine I’ve been fighting with this system for a couple of days before finding this and my site is a cluster&uck….a couple of days later, it was some glitches. Had to uninstall and reinstall plug-ins.
