    Greetings

    I note in this theme one cannot browse by category or I am missing something. What I would like to do is have an menu link which they hover over and it shows all the categories. The visitor can then choose which category they want to browse.

    Vantage theme has this and would be great to see in this theme.

    Hey Team

    After reading one of your postings in reply to someone posting a similar request I now have a menu bar reading "Browse Categories" All the GeoCraft cats are in a drop down list. As I have many categories they go right off the bottom of the page. Can we come up with a better idea than this please.

    When I was testing vantage they have it appears created a page called categoies and you link to that page and the cats appears in (from memory) two or three rows when hovered over.

    Site is www.nzcbd.co.nz for reference purposes.

    Hello,
    It is not possible to show the category in a row wise but you can add scroll bar in the menu, If you want to do so then,

    Paste this code in Custom CSS
    Appearance > Theme Option > Styling Option > Custom CSS

    Code:
    #menu .ddsmoothmenu li ul {
    overflow-x: hidden;
    height: 300px;
    overflow-y: scroll;
    }

    Greetings Gourav

    thanks for the code and I have added it so it is able to be scrolled.

    However, like you look at this link http://azlogistics.com/ (advantage theme). Hover over browse directory. That is what I am looking for..

    Greetings Gourav
    lol now that code has created a scroll drop down for every menu item. That is not good when there is only one item under the main link. Have a look for yourself, looks silly when there is onlyu one link under the menu item.

    Any other suggestions.

    Hello,

    Instead of previous code paste this code in Custom CSS
    Appearance > Theme Option > Styling Option > Custom CSS

    #menu .ddsmoothmenu li ul {
    overflow-x: hidden;
    max-height: 300px;
    overflow-y: scroll;
    }
