 * Hi, I’m wondering if I can pop open the menu from the short code in a sidebar
   widget? ( or anywhere that isn’t effectively floating above the content )
 * Thanks in advance

 * Hi there,
 * You can certainly use the menu and add it to your widgets, you will need to add
   some custom CSS I expect to make the button relatively positioned rather than
   absolute or make the widget container relatively positioned but in theory it 
   should work.
 * Try it out and let me see a URL if you are struggling and I will try to advise
   further!
 * All the best
