FAQ

How do I display the slide menu on my website?

You can display the slide menu by placing the shortcode [responsiveslidemenu] anywhere on your site. For standard theme integration, paste the following PHP snippet into your theme’s header.php file:

How do I choose which WordPress menu is shown in the slide panel?

  1. Go to Appearance -> Menus and ensure your menu is assigned to a theme location (e.g., “Primary Menu”).
  2. Note the theme location slug (for example, primary).
  3. Go to Settings -> Responsive Slide Menu and type that exact slug into the Theme Location field.

How do I change the screen size at which the slide menu appears?

In the plugin settings page (Settings -> Responsive Slide Menu), update the value in the Pixel Width to Switch to Slide Menu field (e.g., 767 for standard tablets/mobile). The mobile menu toggle will only show up, and the regular menu will only be hidden, when the user’s viewport is equal to or narrower than this width.

Can I customize the colors of the slide menu?

Yes! The plugin settings page includes built-in WordPress color pickers. You can customize:
* Slide Menu Background Color
* Slide Menu Background Hover Color
* Slide Menu Item Text Color
* Slide Menu Item Text Hover Color

Does this plugin support multi-level/dropdown menus?

Yes, it fully supports nested menus. When a parent item is clicked, the submenus slide smoothly into view. The panel also displays “Back” and “Close” controls to allow users to navigate back up the menu tree or close the menu entirely.
