    Hi Peter,
    firstly, many thx for your great plugin!

    Yet, at the mom it seems to be faulty:

    – \wp-content\plugins\responsive-menu\public\export
    Folder ‘export’ in ‘public’ has to be handcrafted (isn’t being created autom.)

    – When trying to import ‘export.xml’
    It fails n says ‘Import File Too Large’ (2.7KB)

    Latest update didn’t solve problems (at least not in my case).

    Thx again & greets from South Africa,
    burn

  • Hi burn,

    Apologies for this. I know its a pain but can you delete the plugin and reinstall version 2.6 as it was removed by mistake but has been put back now.

    Also, can you please send me over the file that wont work so I can test on my installation.

    Many thanks

    Peter

    Hi Peter,
    thx for your quick response; guess there had been a reason for ‘at least not in my case’ – will do the reinstall.

    Herewith the file in question for testing:
    export.xml

    Sorry for grabbing the opportunity to assault you with 2 queries I’d have while I’m at it, and maybe for you to add to the description part to the benefit of all users:
    – Why do you suggest ‘<meta name=”viewport” content=”width=device-width, initial-scale=1, maximum-scale=1, user-scalable=no” />’ whereas google commends using ‘<meta name=”viewport” content=”width=device-width, initial-scale=1″>’?
    – What is the most practical and easieast way to target the whole bloody range of nowadays devices (from tiny gadgets all the way up to desktop), I’m so fed up with all this @media-querying ?? I’m sure, you as a developer in the field, have a ‘kill em all’ recipe at hand meanwhile?

    Thank you for the good support!
    burn

    Hi burn,

    Thanks for the response. Once youve reinstalled can you please try import the file again as it is working for me here and I increased the allowed file size limit.

    In regards your two added points, please see my answers below:

    1. The only difference between mine and googles recommendation is mine includes the “user-scalable=’no'” option which means people cant zoom on mobile devices.

    This is more of a guidance though and you can safely remove this option if you want. I included it as I found without it the push animation sometimes got quite messed up.

    2. Media queries are a god send when it comes to serving up for all devices! The plugin is based on them and Im so glad we have them and we dont have to use horrible Javascript or regular expression checks on the header string for different devices and browser names.

    Simply setup your breakpoint widths and now every device in the world will bow to your control, dynamically, regardless of device – no more keeping up to date lists of devices etc.

    I hope the above helps, if you have any other questions let me know!

    Hello Peter,
    sorry for the late response, I was so flippin busy with other stuff! Life, ya know… ??

    Firstly, I want to say thank you for answering the questions I asked in such detail.
    Otherwise, I did as you said and (of course) it worked, thanks for letting me know ??

    There was one little thing, though, but it didn’t cause any problems whatsoever. Nevertheless, I felt I should let you know, here’s the exact message in WP backend (at the top, baah, you know that) after importing:

    Warning: class_exists() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given in /.../wp-content/plugins/responsive-menu/app/models/AdminModel.php on line 344

    I had a quick peep, but am better at CSS and stuff, so I don’t have a real clue:

    /* Add by Mkdgs */
                'RMWalker' => ( class_exists( $RMWalker ) ) ? $RMWalker : '',

    While I’m here, please let me ask a last question for today:
    How and where do you actually test those myriads of devices and resolutions and all that?
    As many others do, I too use Chris P.’s superb Webdeveloper a lot and have also found a few nice places in the net. I’m pretty sure (and hope that) you might know some extra-special methods and places and’d be delighted if you could share or point in a direction. Any information you can provide in this regard is highly welcome and appreciated. I’ve been fighting n struggling, tell ya…

    Many thanks once again, your support – [resolved] – is exceptional, as is your plugin, nuff said, ciao ??

    Have a good one,
    burn

    Hi burn,

    Thanks for the kind words.

    Do you currently have anything in the Walker column in the option in the admin as you shouldn’t be seeing this message if that is the case.

    I will try to get this to work on my dev sites somehow and let you know if I can replicate.

    I use https://www.browserstack.com/ usually as well as Microsofts Virtualboxes and just using each browser, resizing the window sizes and then using as many real devices as I can.

    It is a nightmare however as there are always edge cases on different devices that can’t be accounted for, but through feedback and suggestions we slowly close them off.

    Thanks again for the positive feedback and hopefully I can be of more help to you in the future!

    Many thanks

    Peter

    Hi again, Peter!
    Many thanks for your response and the valuable information you provided. It’s somewhat comforting to learn, that even pros in the ‘responsive design’ field seem to be struggling a bit, no wonder are average users :\

    To be honest, I’m not a complete noob overall, but sometimes I find myself caught and have to admit – I (at times, still) am! *damn* ??

    When it came to the term “walker” while setting up your plugin, I would rather follow the advice saying “For advanced users only – if you don’t know what you’re doing please leave alone”, since I’d never heard of it. After reading up a little (codex), I got a faint idea of what it is and how it can be used; had I known that powerful feature before, it would’ve saved me tons of stress, time and work in the past! (at least I know of it now – thanks to you)

    Well, at least you now know, why I saw that message – simply cuzz I’m not using a walker (yet!) ??

    At the moment I’m still hunting for that megapotent @media spreadsheet, or whatever you want to call it, the kill-em-all one. However, times and devices change, so I’m well aware, that there probably is no such thing as the everlasting queries grail… *harrumph*

    All the best,
    burn

    Hey burn,

    Always a pleasure to help out but I don’t even consider myself a “Pro” yet, I still feel like a newbie everyday!

    It’s good to learn from others though which is why I love the WordPress and development communities!

    Any questions in future please let me know!
