Displaying menu not as a widget, but at the top main menu

Just follow the instructions in this thread, magicmarker. For some reason, you’re not registering the widget in your wp-content/themes/yourtheme/functions.php file at the bottom. In your functions.php, you should have this near or at the bottom:

if ( function_exists('register_sidebar') ){
register_sidebar(array(
'name' => 'my_mega_menu',
'before_widget' => '<div id="my-mega-menu-widget">',
'after_widget' => '</div>',
'before_title' => '',
'after_title' => '',
));
}

Then, it will show up as a widget in your wp-admin > Appearances > widgets.

To get the widget displayed in the proper place, you have to have the custom menu you made and add this somewhere in your header.php:

<?php /* Widgetized sidebar */
if ( !function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') || !dynamic_sidebar('my_mega_menu') ) : ?><?php endif; ?>

Then you drag the jquery mega menu into the newly-created widget you have, which should be called my mega menu.

Hi jasonpaulweber,
Thanks so much for clearing up the installation process for me.
I have installed it ok but I have just having a problem with the horizontal positioning of the menu items. They are way over on the left of the screen where everything else is indented much like this WP.org site we are on now.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Do you have a link to your website so I can firebug it? This happens to people who use Catalyst, so I know the solution to that. But if you’re using another theme, I’d have to firebug it to see what’s going on.

Hi again,
I am using the ‘Nevada’ theme by Themeforest.
Site is https://www.volunteervanuatu.net/home

Thanks

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Geoff

Hi … it’s about 1:45 eastern time here in where am. I’ll firebug this when I get home from work in a couple hours.

Site is still own, Geoff … can’t firebug it.

Hmmm, presume you mean site is down (not own).
Site is not down, although I did get a strange result visiting the site once, but was fine after a browser refresh.
Can you please try again,

Thanks

well done. worked for me.

Dear Jason.
Would you like to have your help.
I have little experience in website building. I do not understand php, html, but still I am trying to build my site.
I downloaded the plugin, installed and activated. Went on WP /admin., Appearance, and was the widgets Jquery Mega Menu. Dragged to the right to activate. I did all the configuration menu select,color, effect, did everything and saved.
Only the menu that I see on my site is the former, built in WordPress.
Is it possible to help me, saying in a practical way what should I do to have MegaMenu site.
Thanks for your help
Robert

Can you post the link in here, rmp? You selected “mega menu” from the drop-down list in the widget — next to “select menu”?

Jason, thanks for taking my call.
As I told you, I have little experience.
Please do not understand your question.
What should I send link to you?
And another question, can not understand what you want.
Please guide me to send the link and answer the question.
Thank you, for your kindness.
hug,
Roberto

A link to your website ….

And again, in your widget area, you should have selected the menu you want in the drop-down list next to “select menu”…

Rereading your questions, still do not know what link you are asking.
Now on to the second question, I THINK I did.
Jason I checked the menu in wordpress.
I clicked on appearance / menu. Gave the name of the menu rmphotoart Core (Core is the name of the theme that I bought to make the site). Rode The simple menu that can be done in WordPress.
Put menu, sub menu and sub ??menu sub menu. example:
??????? albums
????????? Model albums
??????????? wedding
??????????? 15 years
After doing the whole menu, I clicked save.
In the widgets section, so I did:

————————————————– -Jquery mega menu
Jquery Mega Menu —- dragged to the right ——— Title

————————————————— Select menu
(You only have to select the name —————– Core rmphotoart
? I gave the menu has no other name)
———————————————– I configured the rest
I hope I have helped you to help me.
hug,

Link conforme seu pedido.
