Good luck with your sales
this is COOL! can it be part of the canvas and the content itself? is this responsive?
because your demo dont have any content….
I love this smooth menu. It is exactly what my client and I wanted. Now I am building the site, and I have added a few links

and I am noticing that the pages that are built that I am linking to, the menu is not working. It loads the page, but the beauty of the smooth menu is gone. It still works on pages that have no links. Am I adding the links incorrectly? Also: Do you have to take off the active-item on the first level when you are on a second level? I like that that the first level can be bold while you are in a second level item.
Email if you would like to look at my test site please.

Hi. Send me your URL through my profile form, not here. I’ll be replying by email. Sounds like a problem with folder paths on linked pages, but i’ll check it out.
Kind regards and thanks for purchase.
Thank you, I sent an email to the address on your website. Hope that’s what you meant.
Very nice piece – one question – is it possible to set the global width using a percentage instead of pixels?
Hi. Sure, just note that you must use quotes while parsing the value:
globalWidth: '50%', ...
Hope this helps. 
Kind regards and thanks for purchase.
great – thanks again
Hi,
Having a stupid but time consuming problem.
The use of <a href="#">page</a> brings me to the rootpage of my website. So, the menu item does not collapse.
Can you give me a clue?
Have some other scripts that use something like <a class="xx">yy</a> witch works o.k
Thanks
Hi. Try to use this instead:
<a href="javascript:void(0)">page</a>
When I added the line on 255 return false; it highlights the active items which is great but it deactivate all my a / href links.
Hi. Are you using the latest version? I think you are refering to an old fix for previous versions. Use the latest available sources, you won’t need to add anything.
Hi, Any chance you are working on a wordpress version?
Thank you.
Hi. I’m not a WP dev, but i joined with other authors to make WP version of my Themeforest tmeplates, will ask if they could be interested.
Thanks for the quick response! That would be great! Please keep me posted if they decide to move forward…
I’ll notify here in the file description if we go finally with it.
I’m no coding-wiz, and I’m having trouble with the menu when used with http://codecanyon.net/item/responsive-tile-gallery/3290154
But I presume there’s no reason this shouldn’t work?
I guess no. Send me your custom url through my profile form (not here, please) so i can check what could be going wrong. Kind regards and thanks for purchase.
Hi, how can I add an arrow to indicate that is a drop down?
Hi. I’m out travelling, so i can’t tell you exactly the processto get tjat done, but i think it could be a good addition, so i’ll be coding it next week, coming back on monday. Anyway, if you want to get it done, basically you can use just css for it, add a background image for the main level menu element, and adjust the text padding, if needed.
Kind regards and thanks for purchase.
Hi there, it didnt seem to look like I can get it done via the css files. More like the js file which is something I can’t. Hope to hear from you soon on the solution. With drop down show arrow, no drop down no arrow. Thank you.
Ok, i’ll try to make that addition in the upcoming days. Activate the checkbox on your downloads page to get notification when will be available for download.
hi would it be soon? really need them, thank you.
Hi. I’ll have it done next week, sorry for the delay with this.
hi..
Hi! Finally i got sometime to work on this.
Open your jquery.smooth-expand-menu.js file. Insert this code on line 88 (right before the SUBMENU (SECOND LEVEL) entry.
secondLevel.prev().append("<img src="img/arrow.png" />");
img/arrow.png is the path to your own arrow. Use this one as a reference.
Hope this helps! Again, sorry for long delay 
appreciate your help. I tried and it return syntax error. im cant do coding, only copy paste.. can help 
Hi. Contact me through my profile form, will reply by email.
Hello there! I just purchased this item and it works perfectly for what I wanted! Thank you! I just have one very minor nuisance from the person I’m designing for..
When you click a link and the drop down menu appears, if you click that link again, the drop down retracts and then appears again. Is there a way to make it to where when you click the link for that menu again, nothing happens?
Thanks in advance!
Hi. Yeah, although i removed the hand cursor, it’s still active. I’ll modify on next update. To be notified when this update is available, activate the checkbox on your downloads page.
Okay, thank you. Is there perhaps an easy way to fix this now? To make it to where when you click an expanded menu either nothing happens or it closes?
Hi. I’ve made some quick testing with pointer-events css property, and it works, although is not the ‘complete’ solution as Opera and IE legacy doesn’t allow pointer events. Do the following:
On your css, add ‘pointer-events: auto;’ to a, a:link… element:
a, a:link, a:visited {
text-decoration:none;
pointer-events: auto;
}
Then on main JS, on line 191, change this…
activeItem.css('color': settings.menuColor)
With this:
activeItem.css({'color': settings.menuColor, 'pointer-events' : 'auto'})
And add the pointer-event entry on e element on line 212:
e.css({
'cursor' : 'default',
'color' : settings.activeItemColor,
'pointer-events' : 'none'
})
That should work. 
Thanks for your reply! I just tried this but unfortunately it changes the menu to where each link only works once. After you click it once, the link no longer works. This would be fine on just the active menu, but it does it for all of the links, even the ones without menus.
Thanks again though!
Nevermind. I got it working, I did it incorrectly the first time. Thanks a lot! 

Don’t forget to rate the file if you finally like it and support. Let me know if i can be of further assistance.
Hello. I purchased this, and love the styling. However, I’ve adjusted it to the point where I would rather just have .second-level “open” on-load …
You can see what I mean here: https://arlis-duncan-hkex.squarespace.com (see right sidebar, “select a business type”)
I would kill the “button” functionality and just have the menu visible/scrollable on-load.
(Also, the “jump to the top of the page” is still an issue. If I can remove the button, then this won’t matter to me, but I wanted you to know.)
Hi. To display the submenu open by default you just need to add the active-item class to your main button:
<a href="#" class="active-item">Select a Business Type</a>
About the scrolling to top, is strange, i’ve checked you have the latest version. Do you think you could have some script on your site that could be blocking the preventDefault() call? As you have a compex structure, in a quick sight i couldn’t see anything wrong. It should be blocking the # call to top on href.
Thanks!
Ya, I’m not sure why it’s being blocked either. I’ve added some basic jQ myself, but Squarespace does have lots of scripts running. I’ll keep investigating. I’m at the point where using your (awesome) code isn’t necessary, as I’ve crippled it— but it’s functional for this client site 
Ok. Let me know if i can be of further assistance. And even not necessary, enjoy the file anyway! 
Hi! Count another vote for more sublevels
I was going to buy it until I read I won’t be able to go deeper 
Hi. My idea with this menu was make something really slick and elegant, focused for simple creative menus. But yes, someone in need of deep multilevel menu, i guess this is no the right choice. It does what it does, and does it well and easily. 
I was having the issue of a page scrolling back to the top and added the line on 255 return false;. But that stopped the links from working. Any help would be great, thanks!
Hi. Download the latest version, that issue was solved using e.preventDefault(); instead.
I’m using already using another instance of jquery on the page. 1.8.3 It seems to be conflicting with the version you are using for this plugin. Do you know how I could get this to work with 1.8.3?
Hi. Didn’t tested with that version, i’ll try to make some testing and will let you know. Please, contact me through my profile form, it will be easier for me to track this case if i get an email directly on my inbox, this Envato commenting system is awful. 
Kind regards and thanks for purchase.
thanks! email sent
nevermind i think i got it
Hi. Can’t see your request you are mentioning. Guess you edit it in the same post. Anyway, nice you got it, whatever it was. 
This is exactly what I am looking for, but I need it for Wordpress. Do you know how this could be implemented in a sidebar WP menu. Or are you aware of anything similar for WP?
Hi. This is not a WP plugin, and being a menu i think it could complicated to integrate on WP framework, unless you build the complete wp plugin. If it gets more constant sales, i’l think about to release a WP version.
Kind regards and thanks for your interest in my files.
Thank you for your fast reply.
I already found a plugin that does exactly this, you can find it by searching for 2674697 here on codecanyon.
The thing is your script looks much better so I think a WP version would be a great addition to your portfolio.
Great menu, great tech support. All works flawlessly and is idiot friendly. Thank you!!
Thanks! Enjoy the file. 
Love this, just one question, can it be customize so that it is horizontal and not vertical?
Hi. Well, it can, but there is an out-of-box parameter for this. You will need some jquery knowledge to get it done. Kind regards and thanks for purchase.
Great script, exactly what I needed!
I had one problem with the menu headers (first level elements) scrolling the browser window to the top after being clicked.
I edited the HTML and instead of:
<a id="id_of_anchor" href="#"">Your First Level Link</a>
I tried:
<a id="id_of_anchor" href="javascript:void(0)">Your First Level Link</a>
This prevents clicks on the first level elements from scrolling the browser window to the top, but preserves the functionality of the second level links.
Hi. Thanks for the heads up on this! Little mistkae on my side, not including a return false on js. So, to avoid inserting that javascript on all your hrefs, just add this statement on line 225 on the jquery-smooth-expand-menu.js file:
return false;
That will make the same as your solution, but more clean.
I’ve put this update on queue. Kind regards and thanks for purchase.
