Slide out panel trigger for off canvas

Hello,

I see on www.dell.com a little panel on the right saying “Call or Chat” which when clicked pops out an off-canvas panel.

On this site https://cs-staging.xyz I have an off-canvas menu trigger by a button.

Can you help me make a panel which respond to hover in a similar way?

I tried SuperFly but it doesn’t let me make a panel, just a floating button.

If this is a prof-services thing, then I’m still interested. Bill.

Hi @theotcspace,

Thanks for reaching out.

Sure, please add this code to Theme Options > JS

jQuery('.x-anchor.x-anchor-toggle').on('hover', function() {

jQuery(this).click();

} );

It’s a snippet and not a perfect one since hover doesn’t function the same in CSS. It will be a bit glitchy since both toggle on and off are triggered by the same function.

Thanks!

Nice - that’s another option. How do I make the floating side panel (as in dell.com) over which I can hover? Thanks, Bill.

Hi @theotcspace,

Sorry but I don’t see floating side panel on dell.com, please provide us a screenshot of what you’re referring to.

Thanks,

Hi:

Thanks, Bill.

Hi Bill,

That is technically possible. However, that would fall beyond the scope of our support since it would require custom development. But you can try with this plugin:

Thank you for understanding and hope it helps :).

You’ve recommended a plugin which was hasn’t been updated for the last 3 Wordpress releases.

I indicated above that if your Prof Services people can help I would be interested in using them for this.

Hello @theotcspace,

Thanks for updating the thread.

My colleague suggested the plugin to help you get started. You can further research on the WordPress plugin repository or Codecanyon for more options. Here’s some search result that you can take a look. Please click here and here.

Actually our service provider team is now focused more towards Enterprise projects and have stopped providing customizations services. If you are looking for a developer then I suggest you to post the requirement in peer to peer group. I am sure you will get response from the community.

Thanks for understanding.
