Logo gets hidden *before* WP resorts to collapsing nav into hamburger button

Hi there,

Do you think it would work for you if maybe your menu is always collapsed by default? I think this is a more specific use case, and I’m not even sure if I can reproduce it, but could maybe be an option.

@foosantos Thanks for replying! Frankly I wouldn’t like it very much if the menu was always collapsed by default. (I like to accentuate/emphasize the options available in the menu – make them stand out – and that’s why). ??

Hi @stefan-monov – I can definitely understand that.

One thing I’d suggest is playing around with the sizing of that column and/or the image itself. You should be able to set a fixed size on the image/logo so it won’t scale with the other elements.

@jordesign Thanks! That’s what I was trying to do with the “flex-shrink: 0” line, but, as I wrote in my original post, that leads to a horizontal scrollbar, unfortunately.

Hey @stefan-monov – it looks like you might have had a typo in that code – the CSS I can see is:

min-widtsh: 85px !important;
flex-shrisnk: 0;

Could you please try this instead?

min-width: 85px !important;
flex-shrink: 0;

@jordesign Thanks, I know about the typo – it’s intentional. I use it as an easy way to disable a line of CSS code (hey, it’s less keystrokes than /**/ ?? )

I “reenabled” (a.k.a. fixed the typos in) these two lines now, temporarily, so you can see the horizontal scrollbar that they cause to appear.

Hey @stefan-monov – thanks for doing that. When I check the site – I’m not seeing scrollbars. Are you able to test in other browsers/devices and see if it only occurs on some of them?

@jordesign

Sure, I tested in:

• Desktop Chrome on Windows
• Desktop Firefox on Windows
• Desktop Edge on Windows
• Mobile Chrome on Android

Indeed on Android no scrollbar appears. On desktop, there’s a scrollbar when you zoom in.

I suppose you are trying with the setup that I described in the first post? (i.e. 1280×1024 res, 150% MSWindows scale, browser zoom at >=75%)

Please make sure to hard-reload the website (Ctrl+F5).

Hey @stefan-monov – unfortunately I can’t check that particular setup, but can leave this open for someone else to look.

Another approach I could think of would be to try another layout setup. for that header – to see if it behaves more reliably.

Could you try a columns block with two columns:

• first column with a fixed width – and your logo in it
• second column with no fixed width – with everything else in it – adjusting with the screen width.

@jordesign thanks, I tried that but it caused some problems: the text in the navbuttons was split vertically to single letters such as:

Н

А

Ч

А

Л

О

Anyway, I found a solution that works well enough – I allowed the row (that contains the nav buttons) to go into a second row when horizontal space is insufficient. The result suits me pretty well. Thanks again for looking into this ??
