2 questions about vertical menu's submenu system

[spontans]

Dear Laytheme team,

I have 2 issues with submenus in the vertical menu system.

1. When the submenu is open, the submenu shrinks if the user clicks on some other element or on a blank point on the page. Is there any way to prevent this from happening?

2. Is it possible to make the parent menu item a clickthrough link?
   I mean, when a user clicks on it, it should both open a page and keep the submenu expanded.

Thanks a lot,
Sasha

sure sasha!

im releasing an update now.

go to customize → menu style → submenus

now make sure to activate these new settings:

they only work if "show submenu on" is set to "click"

Dear Armin,

I appreciate your quick response and update release!

I've checked both options:
"Keep Submenu open until another submenu is opened" and "When clicking on the link that opens a submenu, also show this link's page", but I would like to point out 2 behaviors that I find a bit inconvenient/illogical to me.

Instead of writing a long text, I recorded a short video demonstrating what I mean.
I hope it's ok.

And another thing that I've noticed:

When I try to access a project page via a direct link, the page is blank.
(e.g https://cleanplatestudios.com/edr2/dean/an-undertaker-a-hangman-and-a-rabbit-entered-a-hole/)

can you send your website address, /wp-admin/ username and password and a link to this topic to info@laytheme.com?

[arminunruh]

actually before u do that

go to settings → permalinks

click save. maybe that fixes the page not showing up

[arminunruh]

if you update lay theme now, i made the changes you recommended now!

Thanks a lot, Armin.
That works flawlessly!
regarding the empty project pages, re-saving the permalink settings solved the problem.
