I have been learning and using beaver Builder during the past week. I was a graphic designer using Dreamweaver until about 2008. Had a lot of catch-up to do to rebuild my old photographic websites and did not want to go into codes and found BB and added CCS Hero to further customize my website.
As nice as BB is, its menu system looks a little basic and I wanted to know if anyone is using any menu plugin plugin that is already working with BB. For my use I wanted a transparent one at the bottom of my header Image. I did one here using BB and CSS Hero. http://www.weddinginmauritius.info/test-site2/test-microthemer-page-6 . I have use button on this but for now I don’t know how to make an animation when you hover over the button and about responsiveness for tablet and mobile screen.
Supermenu seems to have more functionality but it seems to bug a little on my browser and documentation seems lacking a bit compared to Hero menu.
Now I don’t know if they are compatible with BB. I will send a message to both of them to see if it works. I think that they have every reason to do so as to capture some of the growing number of BB users. If anyone knows other menu plugin that works on BB, it would be very nice to know for people that might need it.
Hi Justin, thank you for the comment about my site, I need to work on some finishing touches, taking more time learning BB LOL. I sent a message on those two in their comment section for both Hero and Supermenu plugins. They both told me that they are looking into it.
As for me I think that perhaps you should open a specific section in the forums about other plugin/extension. It would be a place where users could post about working plugin or not working one’s with BB plugin and themes. It would help everyone I think and would encourage other developers to participate to add their gallery, menu, sliders and other functionalities to help grow the Beaver Builder as a platform.
I can’t expect BB to have every functionality out of the box and expect to use other plugin to complement it. I see BB as a fantastic platform to invest my time and learning developing into. It won’t be just a Theme that you buy and that will be dumped in 3/5 years as new needs or design style has evolved.
I am myself missing a way to make nice menues with different ways to hight the chosen menu-item, as well as move menu around whenever necessary (left, center, right).
Can you advice on a good responsive menu plugin working well with BB and not alsowing Page load?
I use Max Mega Menu for more complex menus. There’s a free version on wordpress.org which is good or you can buy a lifetime developers license with more features for $90 which i’ve done and i’m very, very happy with.
Thanks for the recommendation Ben…
What theme are you using the Max Mega menu with (BB theme?)
I am using the BB theme more and more, so it would be good to know that it works well with it?
Regards, Dave
ps, I can’t see any mention of a developers license for $90 on the site? Only one option that is $30!
No worries! Reason for that suggestion is the guys over at the FB Group and Slack Channel are more active there than here. And this is more of a question for the community. Sorry, it just felt wrong to refer you away from the forums without a good reason.
Paul,
Thanks for the suggestion!
Dave,
It would be great if you could share your experience with the menu plugin, if ever you can play around with it.
I found the problem…
On my Chrome, the 3 option boxes (single, 5 user, Developer) do not display - but I tried in Firefox and they appear!
(Chrome is version 46 on Windows)
