I am working on premiumepress - RealtorPress child theme and currently having an issue with the menu.
I actually use the PremiumPress PHP code to show the menu
<?php echo $ThemeDesign->LAY_NAVIGATION(); ?>
I wrap this code under my CSS like:
<ul class="sf-menu">
<?php echo $ThemeDesign->LAY_NAVIGATION(); ?>
</ul> <!-- END .sf-menu -->
I'm using Superfish for the menu, but I am unable to understand why its' not working properly as I use this plugin correctly.
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function() {
jQuery('ul.sf-menu').superfish({
delay: 200,
animation: {opacity:'show',height:'show'},
speed: 'fast',
autoArrows: false,
dropShadows: false
});
});
</script>
But when I see the home page ... I discover there are some irrelevant div's inside the menu..
<div class="dropdown_1column"> <div class="col_1 firstcolumn">
please check the real link to get idea .. what i am talking about :
http://www.ruralpropertyagents.com/
So please help me get rid of this ..
Your hunch is correct - remove those div elements and you'll be fixed. I used fiddler to remove them from the markup and it cleared up the issue immediately. They currently wrap all of your nested unordered lists.
When all is corrected, the structure should resemble the following:
<ul class="sf-menu">
<li>Home</li>
<li>Commercial Sales
<ul>
<li>Industrial Units for Sale</li>
<li>Office Blocks for Sale</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>

I have a PHP function which contains the footer applied to each of my web pages. For the majority of the pages it is displayed as it should. But on some pages it isn't and it seems to be caused by what I can only describe as 'phantom elements' as they aren't within my HTML/PHP code but are shown in Elements of the browser Development Tools. See the below screenshot of the code:
Screenshot of code issue
Basically it adds an empty anchor element which contains no text but CSS is applied to it giving it the padding of the other tags, which ultimately pushes all of the other list and anchor elements to the right of the empty anchor.
The PHP function is:
function enterFooter (){
$pageFoot = <<<FOOT
<footer class="web-foot">
<div class="link-container">
<ul>
<li>
Homepage
</li>
<li>
Sitemap
</li>
<li>
Company
</li>
<li>
Home
</li>
</ul>
</div>
</footer>
FOOT;
echo $pageFooter;
Any ideas what could be causing this problem?
I'm new to wordpress.
Is it possible to use original HTML for navigation menu and edit its titles and URLs in wordpress admin?
My navigation HTML looks like this.
<nav>
<ul id="menu">
<li><a>Menu1</a>
<div class="slideToggleThis">
<ul>
<li><a>Menu1-1</a>
<ul>
<li>Menu1-1-1</li>
<li>Menu1-1-2</li>
<li>Menu1-1-3</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><a>Menu1-2</a>
<ul>
<li>Menu1-2-1</li>
<li>Menu1-2-2</li>
<li>Menu1-2-3</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
</li>
</ul>
<ul id="hamburger">
<li><a id="hamburgerFont"></a>
<ul>
<li><a>MenuS</a>
<ul>
<li>MenuA</li>
<li>MenuB</li>
<li>MenuC</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</nav>
As you can see from this, my nav has div between ul and li. The div is necessary because the nav is arranged with Flexbox, thus slideToggle from JQuery doesn't work properly without it (slideToggle changes affected elements' display to block which is not good for display: flex;).
As long as I know, HTML code created by "?php wp_nav_menu(); ?" is simple combination of ul and li which is different from mine.
Are there any solution for me to edit my original HTML navigation menu in wordpress admin? or should I manually change the php files every time I change the contents in the menu?
Thank you for reading.
There is a way of changing the structure of the WordPress menu. I'm not that good in explaining the exact code but this url may help you:
https://github.com/roikles/Wordpress-Bem-Menu
He creates a new navigation setup, based on BEM method, to create a new structure.
By calling bem_menu( you can add the navigation (read docs for more info). Here you can adjust your settings.
I've created a modular web page in which each component is within it's own html/php file. Example, index.html calls up header.html, content.php, etc. The reason, so I can keep each section clean, and separate.
My header.php includes a navigational bar (which also uses CSS3 to provide drop down menu (ex, DEF):
<div id="nav">
<ul><li class="navlist"ABC</li>
<li class="navlist">DEF
<ul>
<li><li>GHI</li>
<li>JKL</li>
</ul></li>
<li class="navlist">MNO</li>
</ul>
My dilemma is that I want the 'li class' to equal 'nav_active_menu' if it is the current page being viewed.
I'm assuming that PHP can take care of this, but unsure as to how. Can anyone provide any examples, or links on how to do this?
Hopefully this makes sense.. words....
You can do that by making $activePage variable before you include the header.php page
in you abc.php file:
$activePage = "abc";
include('header.php');
and in your header.php file:
<li class="<?php if ($activePage == "abc") echo 'nav_active_menu'; ?>">ABC</li>
The same way for other pages but with a different value with $activePage variable.
This is another solution, using javascript with jquery.
Add a specific CSS class to each parent li:
<div id="nav">
<ul>
<li class="navlist abc">ABC</li>
<li class="navlist def">DEF
<ul>
<li>GHI</li>
<li>JKL</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li class="navlist mno">MNO</li>
</ul>
</div>
Then add jquery javascript to your <head> in the HTML.
<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
Add this to your CSS:
.nav_active_menu {your css for active_item goes here}
And in each HTML page add the relevant jquery selector to activate:
<script>
$(".def a").first().addClass('nav_active_menu');
</script>
See fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/tmfncbb7/2/ (fiddle updated with the correct class)
I've been trying to learn most of this as I go so as with previous questions I've posed some of this may seem simplistic or blatantly over my head - with that said I learn best through peer explanation/example/advice so thanks in advance.
I have used what I've learned here so far to build the basic structure of my personal website. The concept is an right aligned accordion menu that remains from page to page while the content and backgrounds in the area to the left will change based on the menu selection - fundamentally like frames or iframes used to look.
THE PROBLEM:
I have some js knowledge and I know that I can cycle some of the content out via getElementById but as these will be in a gallery I didn't want to drag my speed down by loading 54+ images in the background. I also know that I can just make the thumbnails in the sidebar link with php and just load the page entirely but as I don't want the menu to change I've been trying to figure out the best method to go about this. So far I've heard mention of PHP, JQuery and AJAX (which I know by name but is new to me). Below is an example of the code and what I want to do:
<body>
<div id="all">
<div id="live-area">
<?php include("blog.php") ?>
</div>
<div id="side-bar-area">
<div id="sidebar-header">
<h3>Title</h3>
<h1>Title</h1>
</div>
<div id="nestedAccordion">
<h2>Portfolio</h2>
<div>
<h3>Branding</h3>
<div>
<ul>
<li class="thumbs">
<img src="images/thumbs/example1.jpg"/>
<img src="images/thumbs/example2.jpg"/>
<img src="images/thumbs/example3.jpg"/>
<img src="images/thumbs/example4.jpg"/>
<img src="images/thumbs/example5.jpg"/>
<img src="images/thumbs/example6.jpg"/>
<img src="images/thumbs/example7.jpg"/>
<img src="images/thumbs/example8.jpg"/>
<img src="images/thumbs/example9.jpg"/>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
<h2>Blog</h2>
<div>
<ul style="margin:0px;">
<li>entry 1</li>
<li>entry 2</li>
</ul>
</div>
<h2>About</h2>
<div>
<ul style="margin:0px;">
<li>About</li>
<li>Resume</li>
<li>Accolades</li>
<li>Contact</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
Based on the above, what I want is that whenever any of the items in the menu such as <img src="images/thumbs/example1.jpg"/> are selected it will change the content of <?php include("blog.php") ?> without reloading the page.
Firstly, is this doable? And secondly, does anyone have advice for a novice in terms of this - either basic tutorials or a how-to for the layman?
As you added jquery to your tags, you could use AJAX to perform a server side request and load the new content and replace the existing one.
$.ajax({
url: 'http://example.org/other-page.php',
dataType: 'html'
})
.done(function(data) {
// Assuming the request returns HTML, replace content
$('#live-area').html(data);
});
Try this,
In html,
<div id="live-area">
<?php include("blog.php") ?>
</div>
<li class="thumbs">
<img src="images/thumbs/example1.jpg"/>
<img src="images/thumbs/example2.jpg"/>
<img src="images/thumbs/example3.jpg"/>
<img src="images/thumbs/example4.jpg"/>
</li>
In script,
<script>
$('.thumbs a').click(function(){
var page = $( this ).attr('data-page');
$.ajax({
type:'POST',
url:page,
success: function(response){
$('#live-area').html(response);
}
});
})
</script>
I'm using Bootstrap nav-tabs/dropdown menus component as my primary navigation bar but I cant figure out how to set the active menu based on an incoming URI.
There are a lot of different examples/posts on the net that use nav-tabs for hiding and displaying specific div content or working with the # symbol but I just want to read the incoming URI using PHP, the _SERVER["REQUEST_URI"] variable and set a tab active. Be it a nested location in the navigation or not is also a problem.
Here what I've been trying:
<ul class="nav nav-tabs" id="supernav">
<li class="active"><i class="icon-home" style="margin-top:4px;"></i> Page 1</li>
<li class="dropdown">
Page 2 <b class="caret"></b>
<ul class="dropdown-menu">
<li>Home</li>
<li class="divider"></li>
<li>Page 2.2</li>
<li>Page 2.3</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li class="dropdown">
Page 3 <b class="caret"></b>
<ul class="dropdown-menu">
<li>Home</li>
<li class="divider"></li>
<li class="dropdown-submenu">
Page 3.2
<ul class="dropdown-menu">
<li>Page 3.2.1</li>
<li>Page 3.2.2</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Page 4</li>
</ul>
<script>
window.onload=function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
$('#supernav a[href="<?=$_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"];?>"]').tab('show');
};
</script>
Here are a couple URI examples:
http://abc.com/page1.html
http://abc.com/page2.3.html
http://abc.com/page3.2.2.html
Can anyone point me to a good example of how to accomplish this or am I just asking too much from this component?
NOTE: I've preloaded all the bootstrap and jquery resources in my header.
I'm a little late to the party but just came across this post and I figured I'd add my extra 2 cents...
Basically, the best method I've found to set the active bootstrap's tab/pill is by using Javascript/jQuery to match the current url to the href of the active link.
So if your menu is set up as the following:
<ul class="nav nav-tabs">
<li>Page 1</li>
<li>Page 2</li>
</ul>
Your jQuery will be:
$(document).ready(function() {
$('.nav-tabs a[href="'+location.href+'"]').parents('li').addClass('active');
});
This assumes absoulte path for the link's href, but that could be easily overriden by something like:
$(document).ready(function() {
var url_parts = location.href.split('/');
var last_segment = url_parts[url_parts.length-1];
$('.nav-tabs a[href="' + last_segment + '"]').parents('li').addClass('active');
});
Hope this helps somebody in the universe! :)
Cheers!
I've solved my own problem, here is a recap of the goal and what it took to accomplish.
Goals:
I wanted to use the bootstrap nav-tabs component for my navigation
bar because I liked the look/feel of it better.
I wanted to be able to set the 'active' class by parsing the
incoming URI.
I wanted sub-navigation to work as well.
New code based on first post:
<ul class="nav nav-tabs" id="supernav">
<li id="page1"><i class="icon-home" style="margin-top:4px;"></i> Page 1</li>
<li class="dropdown" id="page2">
Page 2 <b class="caret"></b>
<ul class="dropdown-menu">
<li id="page2_home">Home</li>
<li class="divider"></li>
<li id="page2_2">Page 2.2</li>
<li id="page2_3">Page 2.3</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li class="dropdown" id="page3">
Page 3 <b class="caret"></b>
<ul class="dropdown-menu">
<li id="page3_home">Home</li>
<li class="divider"></li>
<li class="dropdown-submenu" id="page3_2">
Page 3.2
<ul class="dropdown-menu">
<li id="page3_2_1">Page 3.2.1</li>
<li id="page3_2_2">Page 3.2.2</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li id="page4">Page 4</li>
</ul>
Notice in the code above that there are no
class="active"
or
data-toggle="tab"
set anywhere.
Because I wanted to make my nav on a static template which is used as a header for all templates I couldn't add any dynamically generated code based on incoming URI's but it turns out not to be necessary.
I added the following Javascript code to bottom of each template a visitor calls to help tell the nav-list which items to be marked as 'active'.
I used this script at the bottom of my /page1.html
<script type="text/javascript">
window.onload=function () {
$('#page1').addClass('active');
};
</script>
To set /page3.2.2.html as the active page and all the nav lvls above it I did this
<script type="text/javascript">
window.onload=function () {
$('#page3').addClass('active');
$('#page3_2').addClass('active');
$('#page3_2_2').addClass('active');
};
</script>
Now when a user comes to my site the nav gets loaded from a static file and the rest of the page contains the dynamic JavaScript that sets what components I want set active.
I also found it necessary to make this one little modification to my custom css in order to make sure no line appeared under my 'active' tab, just a visual thing probably needed because of my font settings.
.nav-tabs > li { margin-bottom: -3px; }
I would have posted some SS's but my 'rep' isn't above 10 yet, ha ha ha. Hopefully this helps someone else, god help us all when version 3 of bootstrap comes out and we have to figure this all out again. 8^)P
Tab is set active on the client-side, not on the server. This is because, usually all the contents of each tab are actually there already in the document on page load. Clicking on a tab simple hides one tab and then shows the tab having the id which the anchor element links to.
Here's what the simplest implementation of Bootstrap's tab looks like:
<!-- tab navigation -->
<ul class="nav nav-tabs">
<li class="active">
Home
</li>
<li>...</li>
<li>...</li>
</ul>
<!-- tab contents are inside -->
<div class="tab-content">
<!-- content of each tab is put inside a tab-pane or tab-pill -->
<div class="tab-pane active" id="tab1">
<p>content of tab 1</p>
</div>
<div class="tab-pane" id="tab2">
<p>content of tab 2</p>
</div>
<div class="tab-pane" id="tab2">
<p>content of tab 3</p>
</div>
</div>
That's not all, you still need to activate tabbing using JS like this:
$('ul.nav.nav-tabs > li > a').click(function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
$(this).tab('show');
});
Based on how your question is constructed, I think you should go have a better look at what each Bootstrap component stands for, and try to understand what are their appropriate use-case.
If your aim was to show a specific tab in response to a request. Simply add the 'active' class to the div element that wraps its content.
And then make it show by doing this:
$('tab-pane active').tab('show');
Note: all you have to do is add active in the right place each time.
For you case specifically, the problem is in your jQuery. Here's the correct way to write it:
$('#supernav active').tab('show');
I was facing similar problem while I had few page urls like : www.somedomain.com/pages/xyz/abc/samplepage.html
This code worked in my case like magic.
$(document).ready(function() {
var permalink_nodomain = window.location.pathname;
$('.nav-tabs a[href="' + permalink_nodomain + '"]').parents('li').addClass('active');
});
May be someone is still looking for this solution just like me :)
Using PHP to set the active isn't the ideal way as PHP is server-side code and the bootstrap is a client-side UI. I recently had a project using bootstrap and found the same issue quite annoying given how powerful bootstrap is and truly hope they fix this in the upcoming 3.0 release.
The way I fixed it was to use jquery to reference a unique id on the link tag and update the active tab value based on that.
So really all the jquery did was remove the active class and assign it to the current clicked link.
If you still want to use the URL path than I'd suggest you use javascript/jquery over PHP. Check out this article on how to do just that. http://css-tricks.com/snippets/javascript/get-url-and-url-parts-in-javascript/
Hope that helps.
Using Bootstrap 4
Given (HAML)
%nav.nav.nav-pills.flex-column
%a.nav-link.active{href: '#users', 'data-toggle'=>'pill', role: 'tab'} Users
%a.nav-link{href: '#deals', 'data-toggle'=>'pill', role: 'tab'} Deals
%a.nav-link{href: '#facilitators', 'data-toggle'=>'pill', role: 'tab'} Facilitators
This is reduced to (Coffeescript)
if location.hash
$('nav.nav-pills a[href="'+location.hash+'"]').tab('show')
