Stirling Grand Responsive Template

[picaflor-azul]

Boy this whole responsive thing is a LOT of work.. Lots of stuff to take into consideration.. I'm having to re-examine ALL the appearance mods I normally use.. Especially all the mods which have actions (like on hover) which are not supported by mobile devices..


I'm still researching and narrowing down the menu I will use.. I will totally share with you when I find something suitable..

The issue with that Anne is the larger touchscreen devices which may have the SAME screen resolution as a desktop computer (like my Netbook or Surface device, and even my Android tablet).. I don't necessarily want to replace the mega menu with the responsive drop menu for all devices.. I rather like the mega menu. I think the solution for me will be a mega menu presented on larger mobile/touchscreen devices which supports onClick versus onHover actions.

Basically I'm looking for a responsive mega menu similar to the one you are currently using, but I need one that does more than simply use media queries to detect screen resolution.. I would prefer that the menu also detect whether or not the viewing device is a mobile/touchcreen device and present an alternate version of the mega menu which supports onClick actions. That kind of functionality requires some javascript or jQuery magic to make it work.

Ideally this would mean that if the device detected is a mobile/touchscreen device, and IF this device is one of the larger mobile/touchscreen devices (meaning that it will not hit one of the media queries which presents the responsive drop menu), THEN present a mega menu which the action for the menu will be an onClick action versus onHover.

Yes, but for a free template package, I think that dropping back to a simple drop down menu that works on all touch screen or full screen devices is an acceptable solution ;) For those who want a more custom solution, they can always hire a programmer/designer to provide one.

Let me know if you find a good mega menu sub that can possibly be incorporated into the free template packages ;)

Thanks,

You get no disagreement from me on this point.. and for RixStix, this might be a viable solution for him as well.. I'm not so sure that this is what my client will want which is why I am seeking an alternate..

I am going to put some effort into seeing if I can avoid having to hire someone and see if I can find an existing solution which meets my needs.. (as you know the web is FULL of free solutions if one is willing to do some digging.. ) BUT if I am unable to find something suitable, I have no issue paying a developer to come up with a solution that matches my spec/needs

If I do I will for sure let you know!!


Anyway I don't want to hijack your support thread anymore on this topic.. If I find something that is helpful/on topic, I will share with the class..

Think of tablets and phones like wendy's and taco bell. Simple, easy and fast.

While the on hover mega menus are a great functions for the desktop. The on click function will be needed for tablets and an even simpler toggle menu for phones.

Here are some pretty to implement responsive navigation examples: http://responsivenavigation.net/

Hi

This maybe a silly question - I want to add my address & telephone number to the footer. I cannot figure out how to do this.
