Off canvas menu issue (i found a bug?)

Hey,

i created a menu and set it as "off canvas menu", because we dont want to have a classic menu-bar.
If you do it like that, the menu items will be shown in off-canvas menu and also as a classic menu bar.

To solve this problem, you habe to create a blank ghost menu and set this as one as primary menu.
I think this is to tricky for a beginner and brings a lot of frustration. I needed to test and tweak 1 hour to find out, even i am a experienced generatepress user.

Here are the images.

i will leave login-datas for you guys to see the proof.

Pls can you inform Tom about it, so generatepress will give us more flexibility in the menus without having frustration.

Hi there,

thats how it was intended to work - it means you can have both the Off Canvas and Primary Navigation displayed on Desktop. Some people use the Off Canvas on desktop for other functions such as Woo Filters.

To solve this problem, you habe to create a blank ghost menu and set this as one as primary menu.

And yes that is the best way to remove the primary nav that WP will fill if it has no menu assigned to it.

But we are reviewing the Off Canvas Panel in a future update and part of that will add more flexibility to its display controls.

Ok, I understand. Thank you for your reply.

Hey Lester,
the only way to solve it is like i mentioned in my opeing thread:

Hope that helps.

Hi Lester,

sorry to hear this has caused some frustration. It is something we are looking into for future updates.

Thanks Ferhat for replying so promptly. Much appreciated.
