I’ve looked at Menus in D8 CERN default theme which also mentions:
" As you have already noticed the normal CERN Menu does not support 3rd level menu items, so it’s not a bug. However, it is an issue that is already scheduled to be fixed and we plan to implement it and deploy it in one of the next theme versions."
Note that this site needs to match exactly the D7 version (cern.ch/alien) in to ensure zero disruption, so there’s not a lot of wiggle-room with changing theme or layouts…
It is not a configuration issue, it is a theming issue. Fortunately though it is already solved in version 2.6.0 of theme, which is the next theme version to be deployed.
I took the initiative to clone your website in one of my test ones to see how it will look like in this version and the result is the following.
I didn’t apply any configuration change, just changed the theme version to the next one. If you are in a hurry to deploy the website and cannot wait for that version, then you can install the Release Candidate branch in your theme.
Oh! Great that’s been resolved - and actually that menu looks a lot nicer as well (IMHO)…
I’m having trouble downloading and installing the RC branch. Possibly doing it wrong, but I’m using https://gitlab.cern.ch/web-team/drupal/public/d8/themes/cernbase/tree/rc-v2.6.0 and tried to download/upload to my website like I’m installing a new theme. However it doesn’t appear in list of themes (have tried 3 times now). What am I doing wrong?
I did it via the usual Drupal visual interface/install new theme zone, as I’m (still) not familiar with the codey method…
However it seems to have worked for that menu, and I’m happy about that…looks good.
Unfortunately I’ve now lost the main menu on the top of the site! It thinks I’m on a small screen device, no matter which browser I use, and clicking the hamburger does nothing…
Its the aggregate JS issue that I need to fix. The expanding is JS and since the files are not loaded properly it does not work. If you disable JS aggregation it will back to normal.
My mistake I didn’t understand what you meant. The burger menu will appear to all monitors where width < 1280px. Not sure about the resolution of your screen. Can you please download again the latest version of the Release Candidate of the CERN theme since I applied a change? (only the CERN theme, not the CERN Base)
I believe the “issue” is that because of the Retina screen the pixel ratio is (2:1) in macbooks, meaning that each pixel is actually 2 physical pixels. As a result the browser reads it as half its pixels (~ 1250). https://medium.com/@micjamking/hd-retina-display-media-queries-b5562b5430d6. This can be fixed be fixed by applying pixel-ration selectors in the styling.
Either way good that you mention it so that I will also apply the ration selectors on top of the width selectors.
