Issues with navbar fixed hiding behind superfly

Hi there,

i’m having an issue where the navbar fixed on the Ethos stack is hiding behind the superfly menu when scrolling down. I’ve tried editing the _navbar.php in my child theme to create an extra class or even div to change the max-width however it’s not showing the changes for some reason. I’ve put it in /wp-content/themes/pro-child/framework/legacy/cranium/headers/views/global/_navbar.php

Just wondered if there was a better fix for this? And if you guys had any ideas why the navbar.php file wasn’t working?

Also, whilst i’m at it! I’ve seen under Appearance that theres a item for Sidebars now - is this a new thing from X? Or wordpress? I haven’t seen it before. How do I go around using this feature in X? I’m currently using bbpress and i’d like a custom sidebar for the forum if possible!

As a final question! I don’t suppose you guys know of a way to tie in the site search and the forum search together do you? I’d like the search to be global across the entire site rather than having two search buttons!

Thanks in advance!
Kind regards,

Hello @Keanu,

Thanks for writing in!

The vertical SuperFly Menu is indeed covering the fixed top nav in your site. This is because as soon as you enable SuperFly plugin, it will automatically add a padding to the left side of the <body> element. And the Fixed Top navbar is positioned as fixed and it needs to have a left padding as well. I can confirm that this is a bug. To resolve this issue temporarily, please add the following CSS code in the X > Theme Options > Global CSS (http://prntscr.com/evui3r)

@media(min-width: 979px){
    .x-navbar-fixed-top {
        padding-left: 190px;
    }    
}

In Appearance > Sidebars, this has been in X theme long before. You can use this to create a custom sidebar and assign this sidebar to which page/post to appear. To lear more about this feature, please check this out:

The forum search is a dedicated BBPress search form. There is no way you can merge it with the site site search. The site search however can be display contents from the forum. We would recommend that you install a 3rd party plugin to enhance your site search. Perhaps, one of these plugins might help you:

Hope this helps.

Awesome! Thank you so much for the quick reply and fixes. I can confirm that the one for the superfly menu works, and the search box too. Will give the sidebar one a look into tomorrow and report back if there are any issues.

Thank you again!
Kind regards,

You are most welcome!
