[Pro] Upgrading site from non-responsive to responsive

Try starting over in a blank document with only a few pages and no styling. See if you can get the hang of the way the Action wants you to work. Then apply that learning to your larger site. Try to do almost nothing to the text in the menu box – make all your adjustments with the Link Style segment of the Inspector and the Actions palette controls for the CSS Menu Action.

Thanks, just tried again, the menu is showing, but all wrong.

I selected horizontal for the main menu, and they’ve gone vertical.
It seems to be the opposite of what I’m expecting, the action is applying the subfolder atributes to my main heading and vice versa.
Weird. What could I be doing wrong. I think I might have to see what happens if I put the opposie of what I want!

My site is only 4 pages and so simple, and with very little styling.

I’m finding that even if I pick horizontal, it forces my menu to be vertical, which is not good.

When I type the words in the HTML box, I press return to put the next word on the next line, is that correct?

Hal-le-lu-jah!
It appears you have to double (triple?) click first and select everything in the list, indent, and then select subs together.
Very subtle.
Going to try in my actual site now…

Yes. Try to remember that you are defining a data structure, not the actual layout of your menu. The Action turns the data into the menu.

… of what the heck you’re talking here?

I recognized some subtle comments and opinions here (and in an another list as well). This sucks and sheds a very bad light on an app which isn’t responsible for the inability of its users.

Hi, I get about the data structure, that’s fine.
I’ve got the menu working now, but, the styling is terrible.
I’m finding whatever selection I make to the main menu, I can’t get the text in the sub menus to align with the text in the main menus.
And the only way I can get the text in the main menu to centre in the boxes is to switch off the content width box, but then one of my headings bounces to 2 lines.
I’ve tried making the box larger, smaller, moving it, left, centre, right aligning, but no luck.
Nearly there though, I guess!

Trial and error, done. changed padding until happy with the look.
Phew. I can’t believe a simple menu bar has taken me all day!
Lucky it’s on the master page so only have to do it once…
Thanks to you both, video from kimmich was really useful too.
Until the next thing, tomorrow probably…
