Hi

Would you prefer the element to be “clickable” or to open automatically when the mouse hovers over it?

it currently opens when clicked with the mouse?

Hello Terence - I have the same question with the Stockholm theme. I’d like to be able to hover over the main menu and have it show the drop down menu, but also be able to click on the main menu and have it open the page linked to it in the menu navigation. For instance, if I click “Refrigeration” right now, I can see the submenu. I’d like to be able to see that submenu when hovering, allowing the user to click on the submenu items. I’d also like when I click on “Refrigeration” to have it open the page associated with that menu item in the Navigation.

The “Fridge” and “Cook” menu items are just temporarily there to show where I’d like the “Refrigeration” and “Cooking” menu locations to go.

Can you please help out with the code that might accomplish this? The theme creator has been less than helpful with this.

Hi,

As I understand it, you want both the main menu and submenu items to open when the mouse hovers over them, is that correct?

Thema developers typically don’t address such requests because these involve custom modifications and code development.

I usually assist with simpler tasks when I have spare time.

However, your request would require a dedicated project due to its complexity. If you’re interested, we can implement this feature cost-effectively through our monthly customization service.

Feel free to ask if you have any further questions.
