I'm actually following along with a Lynda.com video about building a Wordpress website from scratch using Underscores.
We're designing the drop-down menu in the style.css.
The default code looked like this and worked fine:
.main-navigation ul ul {
box-shadow: 0 3px 3px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
float: left;
position: absolute;
top: 1.5em;
left: -999em;
z-index: 99999;
}
but, since we needed to change the look, he instructs us to change it to this code, instead:
.main-navigation ul ul {
position: absolute;
left: 0;
z-index: 99999;
display: none;
float: left;
padding: 0;
background: #4d4d4d;
background: hsl(0, 0%, 30%);
}
Suddenly, the drop-downs are non-responsive.
I think I pinpointed the problem to the "display: none;" but taking that out just causes a mess. I tried just adding the background color like this:
.main-navigation ul ul {
box-shadow: 0 3px 3px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
background: #4d4d4d;
background: hsl(0, 0%, 30%);
float: left;
position: absolute;
top: 1.5em;
left: -999em;
z-index: 99999;
}
but it ends up looking like this:
Obviously, I want this drop down below the links, not in front. Can anyone tell me how to fix this issue?
EDIT: I appreciate the people who tried answering so far but neither of the answers were correct. Thanks to David, I put my code into jsfiddle.net: http://jsfiddle.net/DMDesigns/5g9kbf9s/2/
Please let me know if one of you can figure it out, using this! Thank you!
with left: -999em;
and display: none;
contents are disappearing
.main-navigation ul ul {
box-shadow: 0 3px 3px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
background: #4d4d4d;
float: left;
position: fixed;
top: 1.5em;
left: 1.5em;
z-index: 99999;
}
Use the left position's value used in the original code:
.main-navigation ul ul {
box-shadow: 0 3px 3px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
background: #4d4d4d;
background: hsl(0, 0%, 30%);
float: left;
position: absolute;
top: 1.5em;
left: 0;
z-index: 99999;
}
and not:
.main-navigation ul ul {
box-shadow: 0 3px 3px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
background: #4d4d4d;
background: hsl(0, 0%, 30%);
float: left;
position: absolute;
top: 1.5em;
left: -999em;
z-index: 99999;
}
I'm still not sure why his code was breaking the site but I did solve the problem I was having. I thought I should post it, just in case anyone else has a similar issues.
I left the code as it was, but added the background color and changed "top" from 1.5em to 3em to have it load correctly.
.main-navigation ul ul {
box-shadow: 0 3px 3px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
float: left;
position: absolute;
top: 3.0em;
left: -999em;
z-index: 99999;
background: #9adcfd;
}
Thanks for everyone who tried!
