    Hi ttavelli,

    I posted the solution I figured out on this other thread, about the sixth message down.It is one line of code that adds 3 pixels to the bottom of every menu box which “covers the gap” that causes the person browsing to drop the menus.

    http://ww.wp.xz.cn/support/topic/disappearing-menus-1?replies=8#post-3080219
    You can see the menus working at http://www.seedprograms.org

    I know nothing about code and only taught myself enough to figure this out when I couldn’t find the answer another way including from expert forums – just saying that so you know I’ll be useless 🙂 if you have follow-up questions.

    Hope that helps,
    Peter

    Hi Again WPYogi and anyone else who wants to help.

    I seem to have solved this problem for now by adding this last line of code here:

    .main_nav li a{
    padding: 10px 15px 10px;
    text-decoration: none;
    display: block;
    border: 1px solid transparent;
    border-bottom:none;
    margin-bottom: 3px;
    }

    A couple questions:
    1-this can’t be the right solution or you would’ve figured it out first? Too simple?
    2-I’m still stumped as to where else I’m supposed to do this other than in style.css, given this big warning from pagelines. What is this telling me, please? Sorry I’m so clueless:

    DO NOT CUSTOMIZE THIS FILE USE BASE CHILD THEME OR SETTINGS
    – Customization CSS in PageLines Themes
    – Customize PageLines themes by adding CSS in the theme settings or in the Base child theme (w Pro)
    – Don’t add it here; as it will either get overwritten by updates, or prevent you from updating at all
    – (Trust us on this one!)

    Well, thanks for spending all that time. And for your nice words on the site. It’s my first time doing anything like this.

    You are getting exactly to a point I have been wondering about.

    Having “so many CSS stylesheets” was not by choice, it just seems to be what happened automatically using this theme. I don’t even know what a Superfish is and have noticed nothing with that name in the interface (yet).

    At the top of the styles.css code there is a big warning from Pagelines saying not to edit code here but to do it somewhere else, but am clueless about where else to look, styles.css is the one place I can make some sense of the code with a little googling and learning-as-I-go.

    WPyogi, I will now paste a list of the things I can click on in the editor from the WordPress dashboard, maybe you could tell me which I should be looking at to try to sleuth this out?

    Thanks so much! – Peter

    Hi WPyogi,

    Yes, I’ll have a friend who knows this stuff help me check the errors. I don’t think any are related to this question.

    I’m sad that you can’t reproduce the problem 🙁
    I see this a lot in forums. Maybe people who are on the web all day just unconsciously compensate for finickly navigation.

    Did you try increasing the zoom in chrome?

    The # in the code that you point to was my attempt to follow this advice to get a non-linked top nav item with child pages that do go somewhere: http://www.pagelines.com/forum/discussion/15093/how-can-i-make-my-top-nav-tabs-not-link-to-pages/p1 .It actually works as intended in Chrome but not in Firefox.

    Cheers,

    Peter
