Hi there, 1) Is it possible to use fontawesome 5 unicode? 2) Will inherit widget css styles from parent theme? 3) If I use this plugin ( https://codecanyon.net/item/ajax-search-pro-for-wordpress-live-search-plugin/3357410 ) will it work without any visual glitches? 4) Are there any limits on how many widgets we can use? Thanks!
Het there,
1. If you include font awesome 5 you can use it anywhere. Currently lugin using Font Awesome 4.7.0 and Ionicons, v2.0.0 for the menu icon.
2. Depending on which widget you are using. Basically, if you use any theme widget it will get theme CSS. If you use any Visual Composer it will get VC’s CSS.
3. Yes, this plugin will works. As far as I saw the plugin supported shortcodes. And ye it will work normally visual and functional.
4. There are no limits for the usage. You can use unlimited things in Overlay menu widget.
5. I hoe thos are clear.
Regards
Kevin JOY.
Is it okay for you?
Can I do this?
https://s15.postimg.cc/b34l1z39n/Untitled.jpgShortly: Yes Longly: You need to create your own content via shortcode or anything within the comes with plugin widget area. That2s it.

Hey there! My theme only have inside menu! But I want horizontal menu in desktop version! Is it possible with your plugin? I have tested some other plugin but was not compatible.
Hey there, when activate our plugin. You can use in existing menu, outside of the menu or as fixed.
These means when you activated it the menu icon will be appears and you can use in anything when click it.
If those scenarios works for you? yes the plugin will works for you. Also would you like try it as live test?
Thanks, Kevin J.

Oh. Ok

Hi,
When the height of the overlay is set to 100%, it sets to 100% of the page height, not the screen height. So on long pages, there is a vertical scrollbar which scrolls the overlay down into blank space – is there any way to fix this? We are then looking for a way to vertically center the menu within that space. Everything seems to be hardcoded into your php and template files making it very tricky to customise.
Hi – fixed issue, ignore the above
Moving forwards it might be a nice idea to let us set a background image for the overlay and to set the number of (and the width of) the columns.
Hey there, I’m glad you’ve solved your issue yourself. Thanks for the suggestions! we’ll consider all of your suggestions for the plugin.

Can I put images into the overlay menu? (Thinking about using this like a switch interface to switch between two main parts of a site) And may I use another icon or image for the menu button instead of the “burger icon”?
Hey there yes you can use anything even shortcodes in the Overlay Menu plugin widget. Also you can use http://ionicons.com/cheatsheet.html for the main icon & close icon but image icon not ready yet.

Hi,
I’ve placed the icon to the Sidebar, so there is no need to show the standard icon position elsewhere, but there is no option to hide it or simply select “none” as placement for custom positioning, can you help?
I’ve found a workaround by adding the following CSS:
Icon Placement: Outside The Nav Menu Fixed
.twp_menu_outside { display: none; }
I hope for an easier solution in the near future.
Hi whats your need exactly ? We can assist to you better.as your needs.
Thanks for the involved it. We’ll check and improve that option.

Hi,
Where do I find Documentation on how to add menu Item? I have a document but it doesn’t help much.
You can add menus in overlay menu widget.. like as the mentioned at documentation. There is no another documentation.
Yes but the documentation is not clear on how to do so, and how to make columns… Not much help on how to set up at all.
It’s all just stock in one column. You have it like that in the demo and then people are having difficulty setting it up properly. Very misleading.
Yo can prepare a visual composer colum on a temp page an you can use anything in the ıvrrlay menu widget. We give out a link for demo content please look at the cooments.
The menu text and icon ain’t even aligning properly.
See image: https://s5.postimg.org/g10k5ewbb/Screen_Shot_2017-06-27_at_9.57.08_AM.pngIt has line height and position settings .. Can you try yo chnage thşs settings a bit ?
Finally you need to set settings as your needs.
Was hoping to get “Menu and the icon” in line with the original menu which is “Contact”. The icon is in line but now the word “menu”.
https://s5.postimg.org/okjy364nr/Screen_Shot_2017-06-27_at_10.12.25_AM.pngSecondly, I would like the have the menu in columns and the search like it in in the demo. Which is why I bought this plugin to being with, cause I thought that was something that could have been done without much hassle. How can that be achieved?
Thanks
If you have suucess this yo are welcome
Is there any way for it to allow to click anywhere to close? instead of just clicking the “X”?
Previously it was but currently only window close with “x” icon
But here is a way to do it. I’ll sent it over here a small trick.
Okay thanks. Awaiting reply.
Can you take a look at this, please? Wondering if there’s a fix. Line height won’t help.
http://mystiqueja.com/--tempsites/fjam/Can you please sent your email to us? we’ll sent a fixed line height version asap.
Hi, any fix for line height issue?
Hey there we’ll sent it to you asap

Question, I am trying to use Max Mega Menu, but when I add the shortcode, it doesn’t display a style, just menu text.
Please disregard above. But still having the same issue as before.
Same line height Issue.
Please mske sure you have uploaded latest version and make sure to set line height correctly. Its tested and working properly on our demo
When I set line height nothing happens.
Can you sent us your login info via email we ll check it on your side
Sent
We’ll fix it for you asap.
Just we increased the line-height option in the overlay menu settings. Please check your website.
There are a lot of options added in the plugin!
This item was my choice because of its flexibility for inserting everything. After installing I see two close icons on the overlay…? But there is no configuration section for the close icon – but for the menu icon only.
Thanks for choosed out item! yes close icosnhas no option but we’ll add an option for this asap.
Thanks for your purchases! Kevin J.
Your demo (is this the newest version?) shows only one icon in the opened overlay menu. But in the plugin the icon must be set. Without setting no hamburger icon is displayed for opening. And when set, 2 close-icons are displayed. I think, this needs a little bugfix and then it will work fine.
Thanks for the inform this to us. fixes on the way. Please keep on eye updates. Plugin v1.0.5 will be updated on condecanyon.net
Thnaks!
If you don’t want to wait until update approved please let us know your email address. We’ll be sent it to your inbox immediately.
Thanks ThemeofWP.com Team Kevin J.
Plugin updated with some small fixes.
Thanks for updating to 1.0.5. But now there is no outside icon. Inside menu works, but there is only the standard icon in upper right corner in the open overlaymenu and the X from the older version is missing … So I look on the demo … but this looks like an older version.
Close button and image button will be added with the next version. Current version includes some bug fixes regarding with the main opener icon.
In the new version 1.0.5 in my installation the icon outside the menu (fixed and static) isn’t displayed. So you can’t open the overlay menu. But it works when icon is placed in the menu …
Thanks for the inform this to us! But everything working properly on demo. Do you have a sample website for the check? Can you sent the credentials to us? (info@themeofwp.com)
Thanks Kevin!
I think, in newest version 1.0.5 the outside menu has a lower z-index than in 1.0.4. When I set it to 20000 the outside menu will be displayed. And this should be one difference to prior version 1.0.4. After installing the older version the outside menu position works and is displayed.
Yes you are right we changed something regarding with z-index and we’ll check it again and if needed we’ll fix it asap.
Thanks!
Plugin v1.0.6 will be update queue in now. You!ll get * Close icon settings added, z-index issue fixed, main icon bg color issue fixed.
Thanks!
Thanks for updating! My plugin section in wordpress did not show any information of availability for the updated plugin. In the documentation I’ve found information about installing but not for updating. So I have to uninstall the plugin and download and install the new version?
Currently it’s not updated on codecanyon yet so with this reason you are not informed about this. What was your email? if you want to get updates before the plugin updated on cadecanyon.
Wow! Version 1.0.6 is a good step forward. Now close icon has more flexibility. What about to give this flexibility too for placing the close icon text same way as the normal menu icon text?
Yes 1.0.6 more flexible and yes we’ll give that close icon text like the others. Keep your eye on updates!
With next release 1.0.7 will be include like those:
1. Close icon text flexibility 2. Image icon option for the main opener icon 3. Image icon option for the close icon 4. Font awesome and other icon package usage 5. Much more additional features will be comes with next 1.0.7 release.
Thanks for the prefer our items!
Regards Kevin.
…and 6.: when menu link in opened overlay menu ist clicked, it’s not necessary to close overlay menu like now implemented, because the new page is loaded. Or closing has to be the last action before loading new page.
Yes good point thanks!
… and 7.: Leave the overlay menu by press the escape key.
Basically it works with this jquery in my outside fixed hamburger menu:
<script> (function($){ $(document).keypress(function(e) { if(e.keyCode 27) ( $(".twp-overlay").css('display', 'none') = true) ( $(”.twp-overlay-close”).css(‘display’, ‘block’) === true) { $(”.twp-overlay-close”).click(); } }) })(jQuery) </script>
But there is a little bug: die hamburger icon is chanted to x icon every second step, so if you leave the overlay menu, x instead of hamburger icon is displayed. I wait for the next level…
Correction: (e.keyCode == 27)
Leave with escape key; if(e.keyCode == 27) – this is the correct code)
Thanks for your suggestions. We’ll integrate them asap.
What about the new version with integrating some of the suggested features and fixes? Using escape for leaving the overlay would be one of them. See my comments before …
Close button issue fixed. Also we’ll add more options into the plugin soon. Thanks for heads up!
There are a lot of options added in the plugin!
What about integrating escape from overlay menu with using escape on keyboard?
Hey there we will integrate it asap. Thanks for the heads up!
Today I’ve installed plugin version 1.1 and I wonder because after more than six month the suggested feature “leave menue with escape” is not implemented. Please integrate this function to 1.1.1 immediatly – until now the plugin seems to be a liitle bit on the way to reach a comfortable using. Thanks for looking to the wishes of the buyers!
Hey there sorry for long delay I’ll implement it asap for you!
I’m sending update for you 1.1.1 Now. Sorry for delay! Enjoy with new features!
Escape key works – but now it only shows the normal icon and not the close icon in opened menu (I use \f405 as close icon and in earlier version it works). (And: Please change text form “CLOSE BOTTON” to “CLOSE BUTTON”.)
…and now I can change the visibility of the overlay by clicking the escape button from visible to unvisible and back.
Okay sir I’m glad it works for you and typo will be fixed.
O sorry, but now it did not work as expected. The escape key changes the visibility every time it is pressed and not only in opened overlay menu …! Please, work a little bit on it.
And one more thing: Why can’t I adjust the text position from close icon same as I can do for open icon?
I’ll update it if necessary after the check it as your needs. Thanks for the pointed it to me !
Did you update the ESC-funktion? Last version the escape key works for opening overlay menu same way as for closing menu. I think, it needs a script function which checks the state of the menu.
Hey there yep you are right I’ll update it asap. Thanks for checking it.
Until today no update arrived for fixing Escape-key-every-time-active…
Hey there I’ll update it asap and sorry for delay and thanks for your interested!

It’s updated on demo and codecanyon side https://wp.themeofwp.com/overlaymenu/ thanks for the involved for it.
Thanks for updating this usability feature! Please update the changelog on demo page too…
Thanks for the heads up! it’s updated.
Thanks, now my wish from over one year ago is open: What’s about giving the flexibility for placing the close icon text same way as the normal menu icon text? There is no ability to adjust position… (you have to do this with css for float and margin an padding).
Yep okay I will integrate this asap.
please see message on your item support

Hi, great plugin. I’ve purchased and just wondered if there’s a way of using an image as the icon instead of just being able to use icons here http://ionicons.com/?
Hey @fakierock thanks for the purchased our plugin! Currently there is no image icon option in the plugin but it’s good idea we’ll add it into the plugin asap with next version.
- Close icon settings added, z-index issue fixed, main icon bg color issue fixed.

Also is there a way to resize the close icon on the overlay?

Hi is there a way to remove the menu icon in the custom menu widget?

Hi,
I would like to use “Search” widget on the overlay menu. I put it on my overlay menu. When I clicked on overlay menu icon, search widget appears correctly but when I clicked in it to write something inside, overlay menu disappears. How can I use the search widget?
Second qouestion: Is it possible to have two different overlay menu icons and menus like one for menu and other for search? It is OK for me these two icons and menus have the same settings (except icons).
Thanks.
Hey there, thanks for your purchases! I’ll replicate your search widget issue on our side and let you know the solution as soon as possible.
Secondly; you can use this code and trigger it with a link or button
<li class="twp-olmenu-btn menu-item"><a href="javascript:void(0)" class="twp-btn-open"></a></li> you can simply define a class "class="twp-btn-open"" and give button or link a trigger to a menu. I hope this clear for you! Thanks ThemeofWP.com Team
By the way I’ve changed something as your needs on the plugin and I’ll send an update to codecanyon now. You’ll get the latest updates with the v1.0.3 on codecanyon.
Also the plugin demo using search widget right now. I hope those changes are okay for you.
Thanks

Plugin updated with overlay close button and improvements as your needs.
Thank you for quick responses and immediate plugin update.
I have checked it up and yes, it works with search widget. There is a small button to close the overlay, now. However, I liked the way the overlay close after clicking anywhere without having to point and click on a small button.
I have read your comment about second button configuration but I could not understand how and where to set second overlay menu content.
You’re welcome for the quick solution.Yes this way the better usage for the the plugin and front-end users.
Sorry for misunderstood for the second overlay menu response. You can trigger one overlay menu with unlimited buttons at this time.
But maybe you can do a little bit modification for the second overlay popup screen in the plugin’s php, jQuery, parts.
By the way maybe we can add more overlay popup screens for the future into the plugin.

Hi, Presale question can I achieve this menu with your plugin? http://www.designelite.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/screen.jpg
Hi,partially yes but you need to make your own styles within the Overlay Menu content. So the plugin allows to you a widget area to use anything in the widget.
Shortly yes you can do it by this plugin without the overlay menu content.
Sorry a bit confused by your answer. I can do it by customising the Overlay Menu Content and then use the widget area to create it?
The plugin automatically create a widget area and you are allow to use anything in this area. (Accordions, menus, etc..)
Just you need to stylize your contents. I hope this answer more clear.
If any questions or any uncleared things you have, please contact us again.
clear?
Yes. thanks. I’ll get the plugin when I start the project.
Okay, when you need us we’re ready every time!

Hello, excellent plugin.. just wondering if the next release is due soon? as the MENU title and icon sizing is holding back purchase.. unless these is a simple css tweak available for these.? many thanks..
Hey @fluent, yes we are working on right now and it’ll be includes a lot of suggestions & additional options soon. Just keep track this comments and see the updates.
Thanks for your interested.
ThemeofWP.com Team
Perfect thanks
Is it possible to achieve the above with css tweaks in the interim?
Hi, I’ve set this up, however i’ve a top bar above main menu which has a menu also.. it putting the hamburger menu in both topbar and main menu area.. Is it possibly to just have this show in one menu not all of them? Thanks Pete
1. Actually it’s possible to make it bigger and adding prefix & suffix not possible at this time but you need to change some classes for the icon size:
Open the wp-content/plugins/overlay-menu/assets/css/frontend.css and find line 14 and change font size below:
.twp-btn-open::after {
color: #333;
content: "?";
font-family: "Ionicons";
font-size: 19px;
transition: all 0.2s linear 0s;
}
2. Can you sent your website URL? I want/need to check it? If I’m not wrong you have two drop-down menu and when activated the plugin hamburger icon affected both menus right? But you need one of them right?
If the overlay Menu plugin affected both menus, I’ll update the plugin with only affected main menu supported.
Thanks
ThemeofWP.com Team
Also I’ll update the plugin with suggestions + additional options as soon as possible. Please wait a bit. Thanks for your understanding.
perfect.. I’ll send a private msg with the URL.. thanks P
Yes I got it. I’ll test it and will sent to you updated version asap.
legend thank you very much 
The css tweak above worked perfectly.. thanks..
You’re welcome!
when you need us you can reach us anytime. By the way thanks for your purchases & reviews! We’ll update you or sent you a email directly fixes.
Can you please send me the names of menu areas? or you can sent me the screenshot ?
sry lost me there..!! is it the div container css name your after?
I need to know menu names & locations for example all theme using primary for default but I don’t know what using your enfold theme. I’ll only define your theme main menu in plugin. This process needs to fixing appear both menu. By the way maybe I can put this an option in the plugin settings.
Ahh ok. It’s called “Menu” and location is called “Enfold Main Menu” Aye this as an option in the update would be ideal. Rgds
Please wait a bit; we’ll update the plugin with suggestions and you will allow to select the menu define in the plugin options. Sorry for delay but we’ll sent it before the condecanyon update.
Thanks ThemeofWP.com Team
We are working on defining Overlay Menu icon to menu locations but it will get a bit more time. You can simply use this simple solution:
#top .sub_menu .twp-olmenu-btn {
display: none;
}
Add this to your style.css. It’ll not display your top header anymore.
Thanks
ThemeofWp.com Team
Plugin updated with your suggestions just FYI
Thanks. I’ve updated the plugin, however menu title still isn’t showing and it’s still popping up in other menu areas beside the main menu. I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling and still same.. any thoughts.. is it possible it’s holding onto the previous install info in the database?
Hey there no it’s not regarding with the DB options. The issue is your theme supported two menu areas at the top and our plugin binds to the top of the menu instead of the main menu.
We are working on menus choosing option but no luck yet.
We’ve not a solution for the two menus on our plugin side but we can intervene in the theme side.
If you want to help from us for fix, please contact with us via email with your login info. We’ll fix it for you for free for you. Actually solution is very simple:
You need to change menu creation order:
function register_my_menus() {
register_nav_menus(
array(
'header-menu' => __( 'Header Menu' ),
'extra-menu' => __( 'Extra Menu' )
)
);
}
add_action( 'init', 'register_my_menus' );
Put main menu at the end of the menus like the below:
function register_my_menus() {
register_nav_menus(
array(
'extra-menu' => __( 'Extra Menu' ),
'header-menu' => __( 'Header Menu' )
)
);
}
add_action( 'init', 'register_my_menus' );
Thanks for your understanding.

ok kewl.. I’ll give this a whirl.. if not joy.. I’ll be happy to work with you guys to get a fix for this if I can help .. Many thanks
Thanks for your participation! You can contact us via email info at themeofwp.com
Please let us know if you need any help. We are ready to help you anytime.
Sorry where can I find the above code to change the original, is it a plugin file or a theme file or WP? Thanks
Hey there, you need to edit functions.php in the theme folder. Open it and find this :
it should be like after your changes:
$avia_config['nav_menus'] = array(
'avia2' => array(
'html' => __('Secondary Menu <br /><small>(Will be displayed if you selected a header layout that supports a submenu <a target="_blank" href="'.admin_url('?page=avia#goto_header').'">here</a>)</small>', 'avia_framework'),
'plain'=> __('Secondary Menu - will be displayed if you selected a header layout that supports a submenu', 'avia_framework')),
'avia3' => array(
'html' => __('Footer Menu <br /><small>(no dropdowns)</small>', 'avia_framework'),
'plain'=> __('Footer Menu (no dropdowns)', 'avia_framework')),
'avia' => array('html' => __('Main Menu', 'avia_framework')),
);
So you need to move Main Menu to at the end.
- Close icon settings added, z-index issue fixed, main icon bg color issue fixed.
Thanks!
