    Hi,

    Can you add a quick compatibility fix for me and future compatibility for Dante to work with the Menu Item Visibility Control plugin?

    I’ve tested Dante on a fresh install with this plugin and there is a conflict that the mega menu options of Dante seem to block out the “Visibility” area of the Menu Item Visibility Control plugin.

    See screen cast > http://drop.diamonddedication.com/GnEz.

    Direct download for Menu Item Visibility Control.

    Also compatibility with UberMenu.

    I noticed when UberMenu is active Dante’s mega menu options don’t show up.

    I would like to use UberMenu on the top menu and Dante’s mega menu on the main menu and Menu Item Visibility Control throughout.

    Doable?

    Hi,

    Yes. Always using the latest version.

    The visibility control plugin doesn’t work with quite a few of themes I noticed on support.

    However I would at least like Dante to work with UberMenu.

    When UberMenu is active the mega menu options of Dante disappear.

    Hi @Noahj,

    Thanks for the request. I’ve got it on the list, but it’s a little tricky – we’ll need to see if we can implement the same feature into our own nav walker.

    UberMenu however, I’m not sure will be possible – the plugin overrides all menu items, no matter if you use that menu for an UberMenu or not. This isn’t something that is in our control unfortunately.

    I assuming you are familar with UberMenu,but let me know if you are or not, definitely based on what you said.

    But does the MetaBox at all help with UberMenu NOT being applied to every menu?

    See screenshot http://drop.diamonddedication.com/RAge.

    UberMenu has an option to select which menu it is applied to. But now tha tI think about it little more clearly, I think what you are saying is the UberMenu settings in the backend is applied to every menu?

    That makes sense because it is now that I think about it.

    – I really just need to be able to add conditional parameters to the topbar menu and keep the main menu a MegaMenu. Really I am just using UberMenu to use its conditional addon for the top bar menu. Thats not really ideal because because I don’t need the MegaMenu options in the top bar. It would be nice! To have the option of 2 mega menus!

    Maybe you can just add a conditional option to your theme menus? That would be theme unique and solve this particular issue.

    Thoughts on this all?

    Thanks for updating, Appreciate it!

    Hi Noah,

    I am familiar with UberMenu, yes. Unfortunately the main issue with the menu in WordPress is that adding options/modifying output requires overriding the standard menu code.

    When UberMenu is enabled, it overrides our menu setup – so it’s not something you can only set for one particular menu (as UberMenu is set on a menu location basis, not menu instance).

    Yes, that was my plan – I’ll see how much work it would involve.

    Hi @swiftideas,

    Got it. I understand.

    And looking forward to see how conditional parameters plays out.

    Thanks for hearing.

    @swiftideas,

    Just thought I would share.

    This plugin came out today to help developers with WordPress menus.

    Advanced Custom Nav Menus

    I asked the author a question and I might give this a try before you get around to maybe doing this. Depending on his answer I would buy and let you know how it works out for me.

    @Noahj – best of luck, but we always prefer to develop our own solutions where possible. Not sure of the quality of that plugin.

    @sswiftideas,

    Of course. I’m not even sure, lol.

    I would just let you know in case it does prove well and someone else needs a similar solution you could mention this plugin to them perhaps. That is more of what I meant to to say above. \

    Thanks again gurus!

    @swiftideas,

    I found another WordPress.org plugin that allow conditional tags on WordPress menus. It doesn’t work with Dante, just like it doesn’t work with UberMenu, BUT….

    Maybe what the Helga (the developer of this plugin) is saying will help and allow for a quicker and sustainable fix perhaps?

    Check out Nav Menu Roles where you can read Helga’s 2workaround options.

    Just thought I would share if maybe making this theme built is to daunting.
