 * Hi there, is it possible to make a link which opens the menu which I can place
   anywhere on the site, instead of using the button? OR is there a shortcode to
   place the button anywhere I like?
    thanks very much, tim

   thank you 🙂

 * Hey Tim,
 * Yes there is as per the docs page below:
 * [https://responsive.menu/docs/basic-setup/button/#advanced](https://responsive.menu/docs/basic-setup/button/#advanced)
 * You just need to create your link on your page, give it a class name or ID and
   reference that has the trigger.
 * Hope that helps

 * Thanks very much for the reply Peter.
    No matter how many times I try i can’t
   get the trigger to work, using custom id or class on the element. Is there anything
   I need to disable in the general plugin settings to make this come to life? Please
   can you give me an example of the image code you may use?  something like this
   doesn’t work for me.
 * Thanks again, Tim

 * Hi Tim,
 * No special settings need to be enabled or disabled.
 * You can see that it works by default because the button acting as the trigger
   normally is taking the value from that option.
 * I’m not sure what you mean by an image code? What is the HTML you have in your
   page and what is the trigger value you are setting?

 * AH ok I had pasted my code above and it didn’t come through. I’ll try again. 
   Sorry about that.

 * Pasting code here doesn’t work, so basically I have:
    open image tag, href, style,
   then id=”responsive-menu-button” then close image tag.
 * I tried a similar thing with an a tag too.

 * Hi there,
 * I wouldn’t use an ID of responsive-menu-button because that is already in use
   by my plugin.
 * It needs to have a unique name.
