Menubar 4.2 and Superfish

October 25th, 2009 Leave a comment Go to comments

WordPress Menubar 4.2 adds support for the FORCE_SSL_ADMIN mode (defining FORCE_SSL_ADMIN in wp-config.php makes WordPress require HTTPS for the backend). Thanks to David for the bug report and the beta testing!

The 4.2 version also supports the new Superfish template. Superfish is a jQuery menu plugin, written by Joel Birch, that improves a Suckerfish menu in many ways.

The Superfish template for Menubar 4.2 integrates Superfish to offer a dropdown menu with two much requested enhancements: first, adds a delay on mouseout before hiding the sub-menus, to be more forgiving of mouse movement errors, and second, indicates the presence of sub-menus by adding arrow images to the relevant menu items.

Superfish also adds animation of sub-menu reveal, and drop shadows for sub-menus in capable browsers (not IE6).

Other improvements: long menu names are not truncated, menu items can be right aligned specifying the class name right in the CSS class field, and four different color variations are available (red, yellow, green, blue); and, as usual, you can customize the template CSS according to your needs.

Menubar 4.2 is available in the WordPress Plugin Directory. To preview the new Superfish template you can visit the WP Menubar demo site, and to download it you can visit the template Download page.

    Is there any way to move the superfish script to the footer?

    I am using the HTML5-Reset-Wordpress-Theme which puts the jQuery call in the footer. I need to get the superfish script to be loaded after the jQuery script.

    Hello Draney,

    You can have a look at wpm-main.php, function wpm_init, and modify the wp_enqueue_script call.
