Drill down menu


Question

Hi all,

I'm using wordpress for my non-profit organisation's website, which runs pretty well with some hiccups so far. However, the default menu needs a little adjusting, because a lot of people who use it are using a touch-device. The default menu is drop-down, but this isn't as good because you can't hover your mouse over something when you don't have a mouse.

So - I'm after a way to implement a drill down (not drill across!) menu into wordpress, which I can add menu items for using the built-in admin page (since I'm not the only one who has to configure the site!)

Can anyone help me out?

shouldn't be hard with js and css hiding certain menu items untill a item is clicked etc

You tried googling for a tutorial? here's a good plugin as example: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/jquery-drill-down-ipod-menu/

For everyone who wonders what a drill down menu is, it's the same as the menu on a ipod classic so that's why a lot of people call it a ipod menu ^^

Could try - http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/jetpack/ which has a ton of features, but will also give you the option of - "A mobile theme that automatically streamlines your site for visitors on mobile devices."

Ah - this mobile theme is perfect - except for one thing!

I need to be able to have a text widget (which is updated biweekly) to be visible for the mobile site and the mobile site, since 90% of visitors to the site a regulars wanting the updates that I use this little box for.

    • Still 3x what it should cost. So, it seems the trick is to increase price by 6x so that a reduction in price back to 4x looks like a steal. "You savvy shoppers win again!" I'm glad I'm not in a desperate spot to actually even need this overpriced crap. Hopefully, it comes back down by the time for when (or if) I ever do.

    • Microsoft wants to end printer driver headaches with Windows Ready Print by Usama Jawad A few days ago, Microsoft released Windows 11 Experimental build 26300.8553, bringing a ton of enhancements such as Start menu customization, search improvements, Taskbar polish, and other minor UI tweaks. Another relatively major enhancement snuck deep within the change log was related to upgrades to the Windows printing experience. Now, Microsoft has shared more details about these benefits. For starters, Microsoft has renamed its Modern Print Platform to Windows Ready Print. The company believes that this name highlights its shift in strategy, which now focuses on modernizing, securing, and streamlining the printing experience for Windows devices. Some of the upgrades present in Windows Ready Print have already been seeded to customers and partners. This includes ending support for third-party printer drivers via Windows Update and transitioning towards the Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) and the native Windows IPP printer driver. In line with these changes, new printer installations will default to Windows Ready Print on eligible devices starting from July 2026. However, Microsoft recognizes that not all environments will be able to migrate to this platform immediately, so it will allow users to choose between installing the printer via Windows Ready Print or the traditional OEM process. Users will be able to toggle this configuration through Settings > Bluetooth & Devices > Printers & Scanners > Printer preferences. This control applies only to new printer installations, and its functionality can also be modified via Group Policy as follows: Launch Group Policy Editor Navigate to Local Computer Policy -> Administrative Templates -> Printers Find and select 'Configure Windows Ready Print driver ranking' -> double click to open it Select 'Enabled' (if you wish to enable Windows Ready Print driver selection) or 'Disabled' (if you wish to explicitly disable Windows Ready Print driver selection). Select Apply Select OK Similarly, if you set up Windows protected print mode through the same setting in Windows 11, it will also default to using Windows Ready Print exclusively. Microsoft hopes that these improvements will help eradicate dependency on OEM-specific driver installation processes and simplify printer installations. We'll likely find out more about other tangible benefits in the coming months.
