I'm self-taught when it comes to web design and so I really am stuck here because I don't have the framework for understanding the problem. My website (sealinesd.com) is OK EXCEPT the parent links should be disabled AT ALL TIMES. Right now it works like this:
-- when the regular non-responsive menu is up, the parent links are disabled thanks to the plugin I use (code below).
-- when you hover on the non-responsive menu and the parents are disabled, and THEN you make the browser smaller, the responsive items you hovered on before are still disabled.
-- when you go straight to the responsive menu without first hovering on the parents in non-responsive mode, the parent links are NOT disabled.
I have very little knowledge of jquery and DOM so I was unable to fix the plugin. I tried to target the mean-menu (used in responsive mode) and use document.ready to make sure it wasn't executing too early, or something, but neither worked for me. Please advise. I thank you kindly in advance.
The code for the plugin I use to disable parent links is right below.
Plugin Name: Advanced Disable Parent Menu Link
Description: A plugin which allows you to disable parent menu link.
Author: Kapil Chugh
Plugin URI: http://kapilchugh.wordpress.com/
Version: 1.0
add_action('wp_footer', 'advanced_disable_parent_menu_link');
function advanced_disable_parent_menu_link () {
wp_print_scripts('jquery'); ?>
<script type="text/javascript">
if (jQuery("ul li.page_item:has(ul.children)").length > 0) {
jQuery("ul li.page_item:has(ul.children)").hover(function () {
jQuery(this).children("a").removeAttr('href');
jQuery(this).children("a").css('cursor', 'default');
jQuery(this).children("a").click(function () {
return false;
});
});
} else if (jQuery("ul li.menu-item:has(ul.sub-menu)").length > 0) {
jQuery("ul li.menu-item:has(ul.sub-menu)").hover(function () {
jQuery(this).children("a").removeAttr('href');
jQuery(this).children("a").css('cursor', 'default');
jQuery(this).children("a").click(function () {
return false;
});
});
}
</script> <?php
}
I tried this code too and it didn't work. I'm frustrated. Don't know how to target that damn responsive menu.
wp_print_scripts('jQuery'); ?>
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function () {
if (jQuery("nav.mean-nav > li:has(ul.children)").length > 0) {
jQuery(".mean-nav > ul > li:has(ul.children)").hover(function () {
jQuery(this).children("a").click(function(evt) {
evt.preventDefault();
});
jQuery(this).children("a").css('cursor', 'default');
}
});
I took a look at your site. It appears to be built from a template that has created its own responsive functionality.
Personally, I would suggest that you look into using Bootstrap to build your own pages. Bootstrap is extremely easy to implement once you understand the 12 column grid system.
Bootstrap has responsive menus with dropdowns like this all rolled in out of the box and it works great, see this example
You could easily duplicate the look of your template using bootstrap in very little time and there are TONS of resources online to help you.
Anyway, that said, if you want to to stop a click on a link from navigating to the link's href location you can use .preventDefault(); like this:
// prevent navigation when clicking links with the class preventDefault
$(document).on('click', '.preventDefault', function(e){
e.preventDefault();
});
// just to show that other events still make it through
$('#test').click(function(){
$('#result').append('click detected<br>');
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
Click this link<br>
<div id="result"></div>

After combing the forums and how-to guides, I have found a solution to a Smooth Scrolling problem that I had, but I'd like to ask some kind folks if the solution below will work for me before I try it, or if I'm missing something important.
I'm working on a live site and I don't want to create problems or break anything, so I'd like to be sure before I add the code below. I also know nothing about java or coding, so please forgive me if I don't use the right terms.
I want to enable smooth scrolling to an anchor on another page.
e.g. from my home page "domain.com/home", click the link, then
load the new page, e.g. "domain.com/contact"
and on loading the new page, smoothly scroll to the anchor, "domain.com/contact#section1".
Currently, it simply jumps, and I'd like to know if the steps below will enable the smooth scrolling.
I'm planning to:
Add the following codes to the website template's '' section (in the Joomla admin panel):
<script
src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.4/jquery.min.js">
</script>
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/ui/1.11.4/jquery-ui.js"></script>
I'm unsure whether this is necessary because I already use jQuery with some components, is it unnecessary to load jQuery again? Or will it not hurt to add this code regardless?
Then add this code to the same section in the template:
<script type="text/javascript" >
$('html').css({
display: 'none'
});
$(document).ready(function() {
var hashURL = location.hash;
if (hashURL != "" && hashURL.length > 1) {
$(window).scrollTop(0);
$('html').css({
display: 'block'
});
smoothScrollTo(hashURL);
} else {
$('html').css({
display: 'block'
});
}
});
function smoothScrollTo(anchor) {
var duration = 5000; //time
var targetY = $(anchor).offset().top;
$("html, body").animate({
"scrollTop": targetY
}, duration, 'easeInOutCubic');
}
</script>
As far as I know, this will enable the smooth scrolling, but I haven't added anything like 'smoothscroll.js' (which I've read a lot about) -- will that also need adding in the '' (after I upload it to the server), or is that included in the jQuery library?
I'm sorry if this seems very naive, I'm learning as I go. Thank you very much in advance to anyone who provides some feedback on this, I am truly grateful for your time and patience.
Best,
Ben
Firstly, Joomla already loads jQuery, so you do not need to load it again. I would either use a Joomla extension (there is a free one here) or use a smooth scroll library (like this one). Assuming you choose to do the latter, you just need to put the link in your Joomla template to the JS file and initialise it (this is all explained on the Github project page).
Both options are simple but if you don't have much experience in coding then the extension is probably the best way to go.
EDIT: To use smoothscroll on page load with the GitHub library, you will need to change your last function to:
function smoothScrollTo(anchor) {
var scroll = new SmoothScroll();
scroll.animateScroll(anchor);
}
I have a small issue with Micah Godbolt's Responsive Multi-level Navigation with active parent links. It works great, except if the page loads slowly and you are hovering over the global nav, it can sometimes show two dropdowns. I'm guessing this is cause the javascript is not loading quick enough. Was wondering if anybody knew of an easy fix.
Here is the site I am using it on : http://library.buffalo.edu
If you refresh the page and hover over the links before the page fully loads, you see the problem screenshot of issue
I assume you are hiding your dropdowns with javascript so you could add style="display: none" on your divs or css and use hover function.
you havent post your html but here's example
$(".parent").mouseover(function() {
$(this).next("ul").show();
});
$(".parent").mouseleave(function() {
$(this).next("ul").hide();
})
or you can replace those with one click function and use jQuery toggleClass to toggle a class that have display: block on it
Below function will work. Try this
$(".nav-global li").hover(
function () {
$(this).addClass("hover");
},
function () {
$(this).removeClass("hover");
}
);
So I’m trying to figure out how to make a click effect work on mobile. I want the hover effect on desktop/laptop and the click effect on mobile.
Currently the hover effect is implemented. As you can see on my website's homepage: http://otownsend.ca/
What I need to figure out is how to implement the click effect at a certain screen size (e.g. 800px). So instead of the card flipping as soon as the curser hovers over ".flipper", the click effect would require the user to click ".flipper" in order for the card to flip. This would require me to place in a conditional statement - however, it isn’t working. I’m not so familiar with JQuery so it has been quite the challenge. This is what I currently have:
if (window.matchMedia('(max-width: 800px)').matches)
{
$('.flipper').click(function (e) {
$(this).toggleClass('flipped');
});
}
".flipper" is the parent element to the front and back. All the css and html is the same. I just need to integrate this JQuery stuff and then I’m set.
Any suggestions would be appreciated :)
You can use removeClass() and addClass(). I've also changed your click event with .on('click'). I recommend you to use it that way. Also, add the code in $(document).ready(). I hope this is what you need. If not, please let me know and I will try a different approach:
$(document).ready(function() {
$('.flipper').on('click', function(e) {
$('.flipped').removeClass('flipped');
$(this).addClass('flipped');
});
});
Regarding matchMedia you can see by running the test snippet that it works:
if (window.matchMedia('(max-width: 800px)').matches) {
$('.flipper').css('color', '#f00');
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<p class='flipper'>
testing matchMedia
</p>
Also, I've seen that in your code, you are doing something wrong. You are adding a <script> tag which contains jQuery source, inside another <script> tag(or you forgot to close the </script> tag). This is wrong. Please correct this:
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function(){
$(".flipper").flip({
trigger: "hover"
});
});
<script src='http://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.3/jquery.min.js'></script>
To this:
<script src='http://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.3/jquery.min.js'></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function() {
if (window.matchMedia('(min-width: 801px)').matches) {
$(".flipper").flip({
trigger: "hover"
});
}
});
</script>
Notice the media query added for desktop only, from 801px up.
As a suggestion, I would like to recommend you to use a library like Modernizr for the media query part. Using Modernizr's way of using media queries, you won't have to refresh the page to see the changes like when using matchMedia. This also helps when you switch from portrait to landscape on mobile devices. You can read the docs about Modernizr media queries here.
Maybe someone having the same problem - Im having a small issue with collapse. I have read this article already along with a couple of others How do I keep jQuery UI Accordion collapsed by default? , but i can't seem to get it to collapse by default - ive managed to do it to stay open, but can't get my head around the collapsible true and active false. I am aiming to have it so when you click the next accordion the previous one automatically shuts.
this is the accordion js fiddle link:
https://jsfiddle.net/limtu/gnhgdxrm/
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#original .head').click(function(e){
e.preventDefault();
$(this).closest('li').find('.content').slideToggle();
});
$('#improved .head').click(function(e){
e.preventDefault();
$(this).closest('li').find('.content').not(':animated').slideToggle();
});
});
Any suggestions or links to similar problems would be really kind!
Happy Friday!
jsFiddle
$(document).ready(function(){
var $contents = $("#improved").find(".content"); // Cache your slideable elements
$('#improved .head').click(function(e){
e.preventDefault();
$contents.stop().slideUp(); // Slide up all
$(this).closest('li').find('.content').stop().slideToggle(); // Toggle one
});
});
and fix all those things in HTML and move your inline styles to stylesheet
I know there are a million of these on here but I have sifted through them for days and I can not get this code to work.
I am trying to add hoverIntent to an existing Wordpress theme, Atahualpa. I love the theme but I wish the menu's would stick around for a bit. This is quite a GUI usability issue with complicated page structures.
I pretty new to Javascript so I have difficulty knowing if my syntax etc is OK. I hope it is that easy. Here is where I am at.
I have loaded the .js on my website and have used Firebug console to make sure it is being loaded.
I have enabled "menu animations" in the theme. This has some logic to point it to the original code, which is this.
/* JQUERY */
jQuery(document).ready(function(){
<?php if ( $bfa_ata['animate_page_menu_bar'] == "Yes" AND strpos($bfa_ata['configure_header'],'%page')!== FALSE ) { ?>
jQuery("#rmenu2 li.rMenu-expand").hover(function(){
jQuery(this).find('ul.rMenu-ver:first').css({"display":"block","position":"absolute"});
jQuery(this).find('ul.rMenu-ver:first li').css({"display":"none"}).slideDown(500);
},function() {
jQuery(this).find('ul.rMenu-ver:first').css("display","block");
jQuery(this).find('ul.rMenu-ver:first li').css("display","block").slideUp(300);
jQuery(this).find('ul.rMenu-ver:first').slideUp(300);
});
After looking at lots of different examples I have changed the code to the following. I would like to keep the animation affects (but they can go if they are a PITA) and I would like a little control over the delay. Most importantly though I need the hoverIntent to work because the complicated page structures are difficult to navigate.
/* JQUERY */
$(document).ready(function(){
<?php if ( $bfa_ata['animate_page_menu_bar'] == "Yes" AND strpos($bfa_ata['configure_header'],'%page')!== FALSE ) { ?>
$("#rmenu2 li.rMenu-expand").hoverIntent({
over: function(){
jQuery(this).find('ul.rMenu-ver:first').css({"display":"block","position":"absolute"});
jQuery(this).find('ul.rMenu-ver:first li').css({"display":"none"}).slideDown(500);
$(this).children('a:first').addClass("hov");
},
timeout: 500,
out: function() {
jQuery(this).find('ul.rMenu-ver:first').css("display","block");
jQuery(this).find('ul.rMenu-ver:first li').css("display","block").slideUp(300);
jQuery(this).find('ul.rMenu-ver:first').slideUp(300);
$(this).children('a:first').removeClass("hov");
});
This code is broken. The menu reverts to its default CSS style so it still functions, but the animations are gone and their is 0 delay when the mouse moves off the menu.
Please help! What am I doing wrong?
I've reached a limited success, based in http://kv5r.com/wordpress-and-hoverintent/ and your own code.
This is the code to append in functions.php for atahualpa:
function enq_hoverIntent() { wp_enqueue_script('hoverIntent'); }
add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'enq_hoverIntent');
function init_hoverIntent() { ?>
<script type='text/javascript'>
jQuery(document).ready(function(){
jQuery('#rmenu2 > li.rMenu-expand').hoverIntent({
over : navover,
out : navout,
timeout : 500
});
function navover(){
jQuery(this).find('ul.rMenu-ver:first')
.css({"display":"block","position":"absolute"});
jQuery(this).find('ul.rMenu-ver:first li')
.css({"display":"none"}).show();
}
function navout(){
jQuery(this).find('ul.rMenu-ver:first')
.css("display","block");
jQuery(this).find('ul.rMenu-ver:first li')
.css("display","block").hide();
jQuery(this).find('ul.rMenu-ver:first')
.hide();
}
});
</script>
<?php }
add_action('wp_head', 'init_hoverIntent');
Note that I've only applied the hoverintent to the first level of submenus (#rmenu2 > li.rMenu-expand). You can change it at your own.
I've added the following CSS to the general rules also, in order to disable the default behaviour at the main level of the menu.
#rmenu2>li:hover>ul{display:none;}
