I’ve noticed that breakpoints are automatically set for desktop, laptop, tablet, and mobile through Elementor. Good so far. The theme has a menu and logo in the header that shows for desktop and is deprecated for mobile. Also good.
The theme actually also deprecates the menu and logo for laptop. (And tablet). So my laptop experience looks like my mobile or tablet experience.
How do I get into the backend to force the desktop header (menu and logo) to show up on the laptop?
@GretchenScheiman - what is your view set for on the laptop browser? I gather you are only seeing the hamburgers icon instead of the menu.
Hi Stephen, I am seeing hamburger only. I actually checked and in the WP backend, on my 27" monitor, if I roll through the views I can see that “laptop” is set specifically to mimic the tablet and mobile settings - so even if I set breakpoints for laptop correctly, it is designed to not show the desktop menu. I attempted to push the desktop breakpoint down to near-tablet, and it still forced me to the laptop view. I deleted the laptop breakpoints, but that didn’t help either.
I think the best way to solve this is to allow the laptop view to display the desktop menu/logo header, but I don’t know how. Or if there is another solution.
This is on the new (red) theme.
@GretchenScheiman - I think your best bet is to direct your inquiry to either the BSA Marketing team that provides the WordPress Theme and or Wordpress themselves. The forums are volunteers that may or may not have exposure to working with the Council websites or the theme.
Note we are trying to build up this community as this category has just launched. Hopefully we’ll see more council website editors/maintainers here soon!
@awg - ah got it. Hopefully it gathers some traffic
