 * Hi Griden et al.,
 * First of all this has been a great theme to work with. I have modified it pretty
   extensively to meet my needs and one of the reasons I chose it is because I do
   not like the user experience of hiding menu items when you goto a mobile page.
   I have reduced the menu items and created a responsive design in this way. With
   the newest version of Oxygen it automatically creates a dropdown “Menu” on mobile
   phones. I would like to just disable this and have it appear as it did before
   with “width: 100%; display: block;” menu items. The page I am working on only
   has 3 menu items on the mobile menu and so this dropdown actually makes the user
   experience worse. I am using a proper child theme to modify Oxygen. The site 
   is in development right now so I can’t give a live link to it unfortunately. 
   Here is what I have tried so far:
 * 1. Commenting out navigation.js, this did not work just broke the menu completely
   
   2. Setting display: none; on the .menu-toggle class under the media query in 
   style.css. This gives me no menu at all 3. Deleting the following line from menu-
   primary.php “<span class=”menu-toggle”><?php _e( ‘Menu’, ‘oxygen’ ); ?></span
   >”. This does not seem to do anything.
 * So far none of these are working for me. Is there a better way to do this? I 
   thought it would be a pretty easy fix but it is eluding me right now. If I figure
   it out I will post here…

 * 4. I also tried commenting out the following line in functions.php ” wp_enqueue_script(‘
   oxygen_navigation’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/js/navigation.js’, array(‘
   jquery’ ), ‘20130301’, true );” This just broke the menu again but I still got
   the wide “Menu” button when in mobile view.

 * Have you found a way to change the color of the dropdown menus? I don’t want 
   this grey text on white background.

 * You want to look for the following line in the style.css file:
 * #menu-primary li ul {
 * Change the background: #ccc; to whatever color you want it to be.
 * Mine is a bit odd because I have customized the theme so heavily but something
   like the following:
 * #menu-primary li ul {
    display: none; position: absolute; top: 25px; left: 0;
   border-bottom: 1px solid #fff; border-top: none; border-left: none; border-right:
   none; background: #000; z-index: 100; }

 * I have tried doing that but I haven’t had any results. :/
