[Resolved] Primary navigation: Disable on blog page

[ammgbr]

Hi,

Is it possible to disable the primary navigation from the blog page?
I cannot find the setting to do this?

Hi there,

Removing the primary navigation will remove the sticky navigation as well.

Do you want that?

[ammgbr]

No I need the sticky , is there no solution round that? The issue is that the anchor links dont work when it is on the blog page. If that could be resolved then the primary navigation doesn’t have to go

EDIT: I have anchor links within the submenu items of the primary navigation which dont work on the blog page

The issue is that the anchor links dont work when it is on the blog page.

If that’s the case, why would you need sticky navigation on blog page? The menu items should be exactly the same.

Let me know!

I would like when a submenu linked e.g. books, is clicked while on the blog page, the visitor could be directed to the home page > books sections.

I tried using full link in the submenus but the issue is that the submenus remained all highlighted when at the home page.

Is there a way to disable the primary navigation specifically on the blog page, while maintaining it on the home page as it is now? I think that would be the best solution.

[Ying]

Can you try using the full URL?

I can take look at it for a CSS solution.

I tried that but the issue is that when I am on the homepage, all of the relevant submenus are highlighted and it doesn’t look good

I get it, that’s why I want to see it and seek for a solution for you.

It’s ok , I have decided to simplify things from a user experience and remove the submenus.

You can use a layout element to disable the primary navigation and set the location to blog.

Make sure the Disable elements module is activated at appearance > Generatepress.

That worked many thanks 🙂

[Ying]

No problem 🙂

Apologies fore coming back to this, I just notice that this effect is only on desktop and is not applied on other devices such as mobile. Is there any way to disable the primary navigation on the blog page, applicable to all devices and not just desktop?

[Leo]

Have you resolved this?

I’m not seeing the primary navigation on mobile either:

Hi, I’ve input inthe private box the page I am referring to, the disable element for the primary nav works for desktop on that page but I can still see it on mobile despite refreshing cache
