 * Hi Peter,
 * I’m having trouble getting a fixed/top-slide/push menu to work correctly.
 * 1. I want the menu to appear from below <header> & then push down all content
   within #pageWrapper.
    2. I also want the #click-menu button to stay fixed 3. 
   I don’t want the background of the menu to be 100% the height of the page, I 
   only want it to be 100% of the menu (so it should finish after the search bar
   appears). The top of #pushWrapper should be visible below this (because it has
   been pushed down by the menu).
 * I’ve wrapped the content below <header> within #pushWrapper.
    I’ve set ‘Page 
   Wrapper CSS’ to ‘#pushWrapper’, ‘Slide Animation’ to ‘Push’, ‘Slide Side’ to ‘
   Top’, ‘Menu Width’ to ‘100%’ & ticked the box for ‘Fixed Positioning’.
 * The Push on #pushWrapper seems to work when ‘Slide Side’ is set to right. But
   I can’t get the desired effect when ‘Slide Side’ is set to top.
 * Another things that seems to be going wrong for me when it is set to top.
 * – #pushWrapper appears below the <header> section on initial page load, as it
   should be…but when I click the #click-menu button to close the menu, #pushWrapper
   slides back up into the <header> section. I want #pushWrapper to return to the
   same position as it was when the page was first loaded.
 * The site is: [http://www.trixxdesigns.com.au](http://www.trixxdesigns.com.au)
 * I hope I’ve explained this well enough. If you need any other info from me to
   get a clearer picture of what I’m trying to achieve, just ask me. I would really
   appreciate your help.
 * Thanks,
    Tom

 * Hello Peter,
 * First thank you for building such a stable and beautiful responsive menu. I am
   so very pleased. I think this is the best responsive menu for WordPress ever.
   Believe me I have hunted high and low for a responsive menu that is robust and
   easy to customize. To date your responsive menu design and code brilliance is
   the best.
 * My reason for being at this forum is for the same as Tom’s requests namely;
 * 1) When menu expands, it overlays the site header. Is it possible for the menu
   to open below the site header and thereby not cover the site header?
 * 2) Like Tom, the length of the menu extends to the full length of the webpage.
   Is it possible for the menu expansion to only extend to the end of the menu items?
 * I did create a .png to provide a visual sample but I do not think it is possible
   to upload and share file attachments?
 * If you are able to fix these two (2) concerns, I would be very grateful.
 * Many, many thanks.

 * Hi Peter,
 * A Possible-Part Solution for the menu expansion over the full length of webpage.
 * Not sure if this is of any value….
 * Is it possible to add opacity to the expanded menu that is BELOW the last menu
   item?
 * This way the website visitor is still able to view the current web page with 
   out the obstruction of the expanded menu and the concern of the menu covering
   the full web page is no longer such a concern?
 * Thanks kindly,

 * Also, in regards to my site, #pushWrapper being position: absolute; is causing
   layout issues to the content within #pushWrapper (it’s child containers are position:
   relative;).
 * Setting a width:100% for #pushWrapper seems to fix it. From your knowledge, would
   you say that is the best method to fix the layout issue across all devices?
 * P.S. I would like to second what newbie newbie has said about your plugin. It’s
   one of the best I’ve come across so far in terms of a simple responsive menu.
   One that I am likely to continue using in all my future WordPress projects should
   these issues be resolved. I think you’re on to a winner Peter. Good job!

 * Hi guys,
 * Theres alot of various questions going on here so I will have to take a look 
   at this later tonight when I have some spare time but a few quick pointers until
   I do from the top of my head:
 * 1 and 3. Add the following to your styles.css file to make the menu start after
   your header and only up until the search bar:
 *     ```
       #responsive-menu {
       margin-top: 100px !important;
       z-index: 1 !important;
       height: 250px !important;
       }
       ```
   
 * 2. As far as I can see the click menu is currently fixed.
 * newbie-newbie, you could try the z-index above as this may help your overlay 
   issues, but I’d need to look at your site as a seperate example as all are different.
 * Hope the above helps for now!
 * Many thanks

 * Hi Peter,
 * Thanks for the quick reply.
 * You are correct that the menu is currently fixed, I just wanted to ensure whatever
   solution you might find will keep that in tact.
 * As for your solution to number 1, it does what you say it would. It still has
   an issue where it pushes #pushWrapper too far down (& other issues I mentioned
   above). I’m assuming it has to do with styles applied to either #pushWrapper 
   or .RMPushSlide….but I could be wrong.
 * But I won’t confuse you further, I will wait until you have had time to have 
   a good look at it.
 * Thanks again for your help! I really appreciate it.

 * Hi Peter,
 * Thank you for listening to us.
 * Tried your css code and I did add to my customized stylesheet.
 * The challenge is that I have to place a checkmark for short code (shown in your
   plugin) to recognize this new .css. And by placing the checkmark for the shortcode,
   it cancels me from using your plugin’s friendly interface resulting in my whole
   responsive design to disappear.
 * Since I cannot provide you with a file attachment in this forum nor a link to
   my website (it is local on xampp).
 * Menu drops from top
    Menu drops from below sticky header Menu uses full 100% 
   width of webpage Menu where there is blank space (after menu items) is turned
   to an opacity background allowing the end user to see the actual website page
   through the the menu.
 * And if “pushwrapper” is the menu, this is what I mean. Truthfully I am absolutely
   clueless as to what “pushwrapper” really means.
 * Many thanks.

 * ps: I am on pacific standard time which may explain why I may appear a little
   slow to respond. However my enthusiasm for your plugin is super high. Thanks 
   again.

 * Hi Peter,
 * I have updated the plugin. Most of the issues above are fine now, but I am having
   an issue when using a fixed header. I’m not sure if it is the plugin or my code,
   but I didn’t notice this problem before the plugin update.
 * It’s only 1 issue, but I have put a couple of scenarios in bullet points to help
   you.
 * **ISSUE: My fixed header gets pushed to the bottom of the drop-down menu**
 * I want the header & menu fixed at the top of the page with the drop-down starting
   underneath the header.
    - If I remove `position:fixed` from `.site-header`, the header correctly stays
      above the nav menu & the content correctly pushes down…..but then when scrolling
      down the page, the header isn’t fixed at the top of the page with the nav 
      menu.
    - If I remove the div container `#pushWrapper`, then the header stays in a fixed
      position…but obviously the content below doesn’t get pushed down.
    - When div container `#pushWrapper` exists, the content gets pushed down correctly…
      but the header also gets pushed down and stays fixed at the bottom of the 
      menu
 * Hopefully those points will help you out.

 * Hi Peter,
 * Any update on what I might be doing wrong?
 * Maybe I’ve misinterpreted some of your instructions and that’s what is causing
   the header to be pushed down?
 * Thanks again in advance.

 * Hi Peter,
 * I have played around with the code a bit more & might be on the right track to
   help fix this issue.
 * On clicking the menu button, your plugin injects the class `.RMPushSlide` & an
   inline style of `margin: 250px;` into the `#pushWrapper` <div> _(note: the px
   value of the margin always matches the height value I set for `#responsive-menu`
   in my CSS)_
 * By overruling that margin with the following code added to my CSS file, the header
   once again remains fixed above the menu when the menu button is clicked:
 *     ```
       .RMPushSlide {
           margin-top: 0px !important;
           padding-top: 250px;
       }
       ```
   
 * **However**, this causes the menu drop-down animation & the push down of the 
   content in `#pageWrapper` to be greatly out of sync.
 * Please Peter, I really need some assistance on getting this working properly.
 * _PS. I have tried syncing them by changing the animation speed in the plugin 
   page settings, but the closest I can get is setting it to 0.1 seconds and that
   just looks absolutely ridiculous._

 * Hi Trixx,
 * I’m so sorry that I haven’t been able to attend to your request, I think I am
   going to have to work on how the animation syncing works, because it turns out
   when people start to make customisations outside of the scope of the plugin the
   Push animation starts to break.
 * I have played around with a few CSS things and found adding the following helps
   to smooth out the down animation at least but not the up:
 *     ```
       #pageWrapper {
           transition: all 0.6s linear;
       }
       ```
   
 * It’s still not ideal as it doesn’t seem to transition back at all. I will keep
   playing around with it and figure out a better way to do the animations (however
   I will be the first to admit that my JavaScript knowledge is not the best).
 * Many thanks

 * Hi Peter,
 * I appreciate you getting back to me. Don’t worry, I understand you have a life
   outside of your plugin, so I’m not expecting you to devote all your time to this.
 * I added your code above to `#pushWrapper` and it does make a difference on the
   down animation. It is a shame it doesn’t carry through on the up animation as
   simply as that (esp being that it is still `#pushWrapper` that is being animated
   on the way back up).
 * For this particular project, I am probably going to settle for the overlay option
   for the time being.
 * But I would really appreciate it if you could let me know as soon as you have
   a solution for this issue, as I’d like to continue using your plugin for most
   of my future WordPress projects.
 * Thanks again!

   same manner as trixxd.
