## Description

This WordPress mega menu plugin enables you to build tailor-made site navigation
menus in Gutenberg.

_Note: this WP navigation block is made for the full-site editing experiences in
WordPress. Until full-site editing is available in Core, the plugin provides limited
options since it can’t fully integrate with the navigation menu._

The WordPress navigation menu plugin adds a few free mega menu Gutenberg blocks 
for different purposes:

 * Mega menu block.
 * Mega menu item block.
 * Plain menu block.
 * Plain menu item block.

The mega menu item block is very flexible – it allows you to add drop-down menus
that can handle any WordPress block, giving you full control over the look and feel
of your menus.

#### How you can approach the WordPress mega menu plugin:

 * The mega menu block is a container that can handle only mega menu items, which,
   in their turn, can handle nested drop-downs, i.e. contain any other blocks.
 * Plain menu blocks can contain plain menu items that can handle drop-downs with
   other plain menu items.
 * The width, color, font size, layouts (horizontal and vertical) of some navigation
   blocks are fully customizable.
 * You can optionally transform a WordPress navigation menu into the “hamburger 
   button” for mobile devices.

### 󠀁[Usability issues backend/frontend](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/usability-issues-backend-frontend/)󠁿

Hello, thanks for creating a block based mega menu! I use this plugin in a couple
of projects together with WP default themes Twenty Twenty-Five and Twenty Twenty-
For and want to address some usability issues in front and backend. When creating
a menu in FSE editor in a Header template part the dropdown/submenu is usually not
visible when you click on a Menu Item. You have to scroll to view all items. The
desired behaviour would be to see the whole submenu as shown in the WP plugin “Sreenshots”
section. When you click on a Plain Menu item placed in a submenu it actually links
within the Header Template to the linked page. I then see the frontend of the website
within the Header Template which is apparently a bug. When I want to go back I get
an error message and need to exit and re-enter the FSE editor. It would be nice 
to add also a menu-is-open class to body in order to make it non-scrollable when
opening the menu. Currently the menu is not WCAG compatible, there are no aria attributes
and you can not navigate through keyboard with TAB, Enter/Space, ESC. Thanks,Georg

First of all, thanks for providing a mega menu plugin that supports block themes
and Full Site Editing 🙏 It would be very helpful if this plugin had a documentation
page with some examples of how it should look. I tried to use it to build a mega
menu, and found that the mobile version has a major usability issue : the toggle
button to show the mega menu is way too small, only 20px wide. Maybe I didn’t built
it correctly ? Hard to say without a demo that I could compare to. PS: I opened 
an issue on the github repository, with a screencapture that shows the problem.

Le plugin parfait pour faire des méga menu en mode Gutenberg. fonctionne vraiment
bien. le Bloc “mega menu” fonctionne bien, par contre erreur sur le “plain bloc”
sur la version actuelle 1.0.6

This plugin saved the day for my plunge into building a custom block theme. The 
alternatives were ugly, huge mega-menu builds that are not easy to implement for
a smaller site.

Simple to use. I hope more people start using FSE/block-theme-friendly mega menu
plugins. The mobile menu toggles should change to the ones from core navigation 
block. The “Plain Menu” block works the same as the core Nav block (did I miss something?)

This plugin was very useful for adding a megamenu to my shop, I had to modify it
a bit but the result is excellent! Definitely does not deserve this rating, keep
it up guys!
