Menu Column Bug Chrome/Firefox
-
Hello,
I have been building and testing my new WordPress site within Google Chrome and I have a question regarding web browsers. To my knowledge, my site should appear and look the same across all modern browsers but I’ve looked at the same pages on Chrome and Firefox and they look different.
The Menu looks different on the latest version of Firefox in comparison to Chrome. Screenshot1 (https://bit.ly/2JamA5O) is how it is supposed to look and this is from Chrome. Screenshot2 (https://bit.ly/2FyJi6z) shows how the site looks on Firefox. What is causing this problem and can anyone help me fix it?
Thanks in advance,
Regards

Hi Calvin,
I see you have this custom CSS:
@media only screen and (min-width: 781px) { #mega-menu-wrap-max_mega_menu_1 #mega-menu-max_mega_menu_1 li#mega-menu-item-40467 > ul.mega-sub-menu { columns: 4; } }It is that which I suspect is not working in FireFox. It is possible that FireFox does not support “columns”.

TomThanks for your reply Tom. Could you advise an alternative way to display these columns because I got that piece of code from your documentation so I assumed it would do the trick

Hi Calvin,
That bit of code is specifically for 3rd level items within mega menus, but your sub menu is a flyout menu. I think the documentation has probably been updated since you copied the CSS, here is how it looks now:

For your situation you would need to convert your sub menu to a mega menu and then you can use the mega menu builder to display your items in 4 columns:

TomHi Tom,
Thanks for your clarification. In order to convert this submenu to a mega menu, do I need to upgrade my current install of the MegaMenu to a Pro Version? I haven’t got the options to convert the submenu

calvintctHi calvin,
Nope, it’s all in the free version.
If you go to Appearance > Menus. Hover over the “Destinations” menu item. Do you see a blue “Mega Menu” button?
Oh yes, I see this now!
Would you advise I use the standard layout or the grid layout? I have a limited amount of space and a lot of items so I would like it to be displayed in two neat columns.Which option will be best to use? Thanks again for your help

Hi Calvin,
In general I would advise the grid layout as it provides a lot more flexibility in laying out your sub menu.
But for you, as you have so many sub menu items, the standard layout is probably best as it will automatically organise your menu items into columns (rather than you having to drag them into place manually).
Thanks for your help. I think I need to follow a step by step setup of this menu because my changes are not updating on the front end. Im trying to make the menu 4 columns on this page (http://invoyage.net/siteinvoyage19/inspire/) but have it as 2 columns on the side bar of the blogs e.g (http://invoyage.net/siteinvoyage19/2019/03/13/accor-and-sbe-launch-luxury-hotel-brand-house-of-originals/)
Does this make sense?

Hi Calvin,
You would need to duplicate the menu so you have 2 separate menus in order to have them display differently depending on their location.

TomThat’s worked! Thanks for your help
