[Support request] Mobile tab menu bar – possible future release?

[Anthony]

Hi, just wondered if you have any plans for or would consider introducing a tab menu bar for mobile devices? I think it would be a great addition to Generatepress premium.

Something like what this article talks about

Thanks

Hi there,

yeah that is something we have looked at – not sure it will make to an update anytime soon. In the meantime it is possible with a little bit of CSS after adding some icons to the menu items. Let us know if you want assistance with that.

Thanks for the reply David,

Okay, was just a thought/suggestion. I’ll work on something when I get a chance and when I have something fully operational I will put it up on githhub in case anyone else is interested or can improve on it.

Best regards

I like the idea 🙂 Be great to see what you come up with.

Hi

I’ve started developing the idea. you can see it here

The site is a fresh install so excuse the minimalism of it! lol

That looks very cool – thanks for sharing! Any chance we can keep the demo up for a bit so we can play with it/take a look at the code when we get a minute?

Let me know 🙂

Looks great Anthony! It was what I was looking for, but have used the idea from here for the time being 1 https://generatepress.com/forums/topic/move-menu-to-bottom-on-mobile/

Hi Tom,

Thanks for the comment. Yes, no problem at all. I’ll update the page over the next couple of days with some pointers as to how to use it on a page.

All the code for it is inline on the same page, there are just a couple of class names that have to be added in the menu admin in wordpress. It’s going to be an ongoing project.

Cheers

Hi Jason,

All the code is inline, so if you look at the source code of the page it’s all there for you to copy and play with if you desire. As I mentioned above to Tom (above), I will update the page with some pointers on use over the next few days, when I get a chance.

Cheers

[Tom]

Thank you! Really appreciate it 🙂

[Jason]

UPDATE: with David’s help and using a hook to add some html (flexbox) to inside_mobile_header I have managed to create this on my site (www.dantianhealth.com.au). Happy to share code if is useful.

I recently found this plugin which does this simply and neater than I had managed
