Menu in Header Widget

Hi. I recently purchased Vantage Premium and I love it. It really helped me put together a much better looking site than our current one and was easy to use with the combination of Page Builder. Thanks!

I am currently rebuilding our site in a test location here ( http://216.26.128.75/ ) before I released it to production.

I wanted my header to have our logo on the left hand side and the menu on the right. So I added a custom menu to the Header widget. This looks the way I want it to and is working really well except for one issue I am hoping you can help with.

The issue revolves around responsiveness of the menu I think. There appear to be three ways the menu is displayed:

1) To the right of the header logo as you would see it on a decent sized desktop/laptop display window.
2) Centered under the Logo (logo is centered in the screen as well) as I see it on my smart phone when viewing in landscape mode.
3) A mobile navigation menu as I see it when viewing on my smart phone in portrait mode.

The problem seems to be the transition between #1 and #2. If I view the site on my laptop and slowly resize the window the menu begins to overlap the header logo. At some point it eventually switches to view #3. Is there a way to control the point at which view #3 is displayed to prevent the menu from overlapping the header logo?

I tried adjusting the “Mobile Menu Collapse” setting of the theme, but I have to make it so wide that it seems to eliminate view #2 almost entirely.

The size of my normal logo is 347×70. The retina logo is 694×140.

Thanks!

    Ooops…one mistake in my post in this paragraph…it should read as follows….I am interested in controlling when it switches to view #2. view #3 appears to be controlled by the “Mobile Menu Collapse” setting.

    Hi, I Work Here

    Hi Scott

    Please try the following under Appearance > Custom CSS:

    /* Vantage Header Mobile Breakpoint */
    
    @media (max-width: 960px) {
      body.responsive header#masthead .hgroup {
        text-align: center;
      }
      body.responsive header#masthead .hgroup .logo {
        float: none;
      }
      body.responsive header#masthead .hgroup .logo img {
        margin: 0 auto;
        padding-top: 0px !important;
        padding-bottom: 0px !important;
      }
      body.responsive header#masthead .hgroup .support-text,
      body.responsive header#masthead .hgroup #header-sidebar {
        position: static;
        display: block;
        margin-top: 30px;
        max-width: 100%;
      }
      body.responsive header#masthead .hgroup .support-text img,
      body.responsive header#masthead .hgroup #header-sidebar img {
        max-width: 100%;
        height: auto;
      }
      body.responsive header#masthead .hgroup #header-sidebar {
        padding-top: 0 !important;
        padding-bottom: 0 !important;
        height: auto;
      }
      body.responsive header#masthead .hgroup #header-sidebar .widget {
        display: block;
        margin: 0 auto;
        float: none;
      }
    }
    

    All you need to experiment with in the 960 figure at the top. That’s the breakpoint, you can set it as required.

    Hope that helps.
