Superfish NavBar type in the Menu Bar region

Hey there,

I need to see it, email me the URL if it's online, thanks.

Ok, let me install Corolla on my local, and in which region your Superfish block is?

As far as I see, the Menu Bar region supports the Horizontal type only; moving it to Corolla.

Yeah, its all a bit of an ugly mess in 7.x-2.x because I was trying to support Corolla's original CSS and Superfish, which was a rather poor decision.

In 7.x-3.x I blew Corolla's CSS away and use a much more simplified approach and the nav bar style should work (pretty sure it does actually). I need to check. Could possibly back port my change to 7.x-2.x.

I suspect this is broken with 7.x-3.x. I had a superfish menu setup and it looked right at one point, then later it broke .. I'm pretty sure when I upgraded form 7.x-2.x to 7.x-3.x. I also added a non-superfish menu to the menu-bar, and it looks correct, just the superfish menu is awry.

Let me know if you want to see an example; the site I'm setting up is flipping between corolla and a subtheme while trying to set things up (and eg. figure out why responsive design broke in my footheme-based subtheme), but I can make it stable for a bit to demonstrate this if it'd help.

Thanks...

Hello,

I have a similar problem:

I just moved my theme to Corolla 7.x-3.0-rc1 (which is a very nice theme btw!)

As you said in this issue #1275172: Support for automatic drop down main menu: "BTW, Corolla now supports drop menus in two regions - the classic Menu Bar region at the top, and in the Header region - if you drop a Superfish menu in there it will be automatically styled"
so I dropped my superfish (which is my main menu and has secondary items) in the menu bar, but it doesn't get styled automatically in the same way as when I drop directly the main menu in the menu bar (the problem is I didn't see my secondary menu items that is why I use superfish menu).

• First case, I put directly the main menu in the menu bar.

Result: the main menu looks really nice, that is exactly the result I want, there is no dropdown option and the 2nd level menu items are turned into first level menu items.

• Second case, I use superfish menu and attribute the main menu to it and I put it in the menu bar.

Result: there is a dropdown effect but, all the primary menu items are stack together, and they are styled like the links in a normal text, they are blue, not white and when you hover they turn orange and the background stay black. Seriously, it is ugly...

• Third case, I create an external css file and put its path in the "Extra css" option field in the superfish menu settings, as explained here #1188032: Superfish: how to override default css style. And I copy in it the specific superfish css code you wrote in corolla/colors/colors.css

Result: now the menu texts are white, and hovering turns the background orange, but the menu items are still stack together and the height of the tab stays tiny.
I tried to copy all the color.css code the the external css file but then the menu turns into the "second case style".

I enclose images

thanks

sorry there is a mistake in the names of the images but you can guess which one corresponds to the case described.

Hello,

I noticed that if I drop the "user login block" into the header region then it is automatically themed but if I drop it into the menu-bar region it is not themed and shows like a link in a normal text body (bleu text that turns orange when you hover on it).

I hope it helps to figure out the problem.

****Edit****
I am speaking about the user menu and actually it is nicely automatically themed in both cases, in the menu-bar and in the header regions.
The "user login" block is not themed in both cases.
Sorry, I got confused.

Hey, I found an easy workaround until corolla itself gets fixed; it looks like the css selectors are matching a "block-menu" class which isn't present on my superfish menu, so I simply added one myself.

Specifically, I went in Structure -> Blocks -> configure (the superfish menu block) -> Advanced HTML settings and for AROUND THE MAIN <UL> I entered: <div class="block-menu">,</div>

That works with 7.x-3.0-rc1 anyways.

Never mind that workaround, there's a better (long term) fix at http://drupal.org/node/1783910#comment-6495542 - ie. just set the superfish menu style to "default" instead of "none". Thanks, Jeff!

For me this almost works, but leaves a slight gap between the bottom of the menu item and the background menu bar, and also a gap between the items on the drop-down menu.

I tracked this down to navigation.css:

ul.menu li {
margin: 2px 0;
padding: 0;
}

Changing 2px to 0 makes this go away.

I noticed looking at http://adaptivethemes.com/demos/contrib/?theme=corolla that this particular css block doesn't seem to apply to the menu items there... is this something faulty in my configuration, or a more general bug caused by using the 'Default' superfish style?

Hi guys,

I am trying to configure both Corolla theme and Superfish module but I am facing some issues,

1.- I can not set one superfish instead of the four as default. Ok. No problem, I select the first superfish
to deploy my menu.

2.- When I am trying to configure my first superfish, in Structure -> Blocks -> Superfish 1 -> configure, Superfish Settings -> Style I have just one option that is to None.

Forgetting the first question, what have I to do to add more style options to that drop-down menu?

I have been reading the entire thread an did not find answer for my issue. Please help.

I'm seeing the same thing, but it's working fine in my test site in vagrant, so I was able to compare the two.

The difference is an extra CSS class attached to the ul element containing the menu. If the "menu" class is set in the ul, a 2px margin comes from navigation, just as reported in #15. In my vagrant site, there is no menu class. I am not sure exactly where the class is coming from. Maybe it's a different version of corolla?

If you remove the menu class from the ul using the developer tools in your browser, it will probably work.

So I think the long term fix is not to modify navigation.css, but to ensure the menu style is not there when superfish is used.

Hi, the issue in #15 might be related to https://drupal.org/node/1157642 . My menus were working fine with superfish 7.x-1.8, but the gaps appear with superfish 7.x-1.9. As I said in #17, the difference is that the ul element has an additional class, "menu", which brings on a margin from navigation.css.

I could add a custom style to set the margin back to zero, but aren't "menu" and "sf-menu" at cross purposes? Is there any need for the "menu" style once superfish has been enabled?

Hi again,

I have fixed the gap. In admin/appearance/settings/corolla, I turned on custom CSS extensions. Then I added this to the custom CSS style:

ul.menu.sf-menu li
{
margin: 0;
}
