Hi,
There is an option to highlight or make the nav menu link text bolder when the user read the relevant section on page (one page, using anchor links).

my site builder is Elementor - I set the section name by ID on elementor advanced option for the section.

there is a way to make it?

site for this test:

thanks

Hi there,

Can you try inserting full URL as the link? So like this: https://demo.wisite.co.il/one-page/#second

Then the current menu item color should work.

Thanks Leo, but that did not help ...
I mean the item in the menu is highlighted not by clicking the menu, but when I scroll with the mouse and reach the relevant part of the page

Hmm not sure if this is possible.

Will ask Tom to have a look :)

A plugin like this might help: https://sv.wordpress.org/plugins/page-scroll-to-id/

You're amazing! Thanks!
If that's OK, I'll take the opportunity to consult with geniuses like you:
How would you create a side panel on the site for the use of: search, FAQs, and Info like this website: https://www.mvs.co.il/ ??? (Clicking on the question mark icon on the right ...)

Very appreciate it, you are the best

Hmm you could try the search feature in the primary navigation?

Or you are looking for a specific style?

Thank you,
but I meant a unique panel that opens with a click and opens up another area of information on the site.

another example:

The slideout menu is kind of like that: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/activating-slide-out-navigation/

However, it's currently only built for menu items. It will have a widget area for other content soon though.

Sound great! wait for it!

Until this feature release - Do you know a good way to create this? maybe a plugin? or a external service of help/faq float panel?

What exactly are you wanting to add to the slide-out menu? It's likely possible already with some code.

Let me know :)

Hi,
I want to add a search, Faq, Login and small contact form.

this is the best example (video): https://expirebox.com/download/8320627c7e4efd69724404ead8bbda76.html

Thanks

You can manually add a widget area to the slideout menu like this: https://generatepress.com/forums/topic/2-questions-from-a-new-user/#post-292885
