## Descrizione

Navigation dropdown menus are widely used, especially on sites with lots of pages
and/or categories, as they allow to navigate directly to almost every page of the
site, with no need to navigate through all the intermediate pages in the hierarchy.
Unfortunately dropdown menus do not work well with mobile / touch devices, because
the “mouseover” event is not handled, so when the user click a top level menu, the
browser follows the link instead of opening the dropdown menu. This plugin is a 
solution for that situation. On touch devices, the first click / tap on a top level
menu (or, in general on any menu with children) only expands the nested dropdown
menu, while the second one brings to the link. This is the same behavior natively
adopted by iPad / iPhone starting from iOS version 5, so this plugin is intended
to work with previous versions of iOS and with other mobile platforms that do not
have such native behavior (Android, Windows, etc).

#### Credits

This plugin was inspired by the article [“Make CSS drop-down menus work on touch devices”](https://snippets.webaware.com.au/snippets/make-css-drop-down-menus-work-on-touch-devices/)
written by Ross McKay, although it uses a totally different javascript code.

## Installazione

This section describes how to install and use the plugin.

 1. Install automatically through the `Plugins` menu and `Add New` button (or upload
    the entire `black-studio-touch-dropdown-menu` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/`
    directory)
 2. Activate the plugin
 3. This plugin has no options, it only modifies the behavior of navigation dropdown
    menus, by including a javascript file on the frontend of your site

## FAQ

### How to customize the plugin’s behavior

By default the plugin applies its behavior to all hyperlinks that are direct children
of nested unordered list. This is corresponding to the following jQuery selector:`
li:has(ul) > a`, which is very generic and should fit with almost every theme. In
some case the use of this generic selector may cause unexpected behaviors on nested
unordered lists that are not navigation menus and do not have any dropdown effect
applied. To workaround this, the plugin provides the filter `black_studio_touch_dropdown_menu_selector`,
that allows advanced users to customize the selector to use.

Example (based on Twenty Eleven theme markup):

    ```
    add_filter( 'black_studio_touch_dropdown_menu_selector', 'my_custom_selector' );
    function my_custom_selector( $selector ) {
        return 'nav li:has(ul) > a';
    }
    ```

### Forcing plugin’s behavior on iOS

The plugin behavior is intentionally disabled on Apple devices with iOS version 
5 or later, as it should be provided natively by the devices. Anyway, if you want
to force the application even on these devices, there’s a filter hook for that. 
You may use the following snippet:

    ```
    add_filter( 'black_studio_touch_dropdown_menu_force_ios5', 'my_force_ios5' );
    function my_force_ios5( $force ) {
        return true;
    }
    ```

Just install and activate it, and on my twentytwelve child theme the menu is working
again on tablets. But for smart phones I use in addition the plugin WP Responsive
Menu. This way the old twentytwelve theme is fine again on smart phones, tablets
and desktop. Thanks!

Easy to install. Seems to solve the menu issues when using a tablet and the Hueman
theme.

 [eyebuzz](https://profiles.wordpress.org/eyebuzz/) 3 Settembre 2016

Easy to install – and that was it – no settings to play work and worked right away.
My issues was both mega menu and drop down menu not working on mobile (opening the
link instead of the next level of navigation). Worked fantastic!

### 󠀁[Doesn't work at all](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/doesnt-work-at-all-117/)󠁿

 [jandreasen](https://profiles.wordpress.org/jandreasen/) 7 Febbraio 2017

Not working for me at all. I’m using s Samsung Galaxy S4 and tried it with both 
the stock browser and Chrome. Doesn’t do anything when I click on the top-level 
menu item — I expect a dropdown to appear. If I click a second time, it takes me
to the top-level page. I never see the second-level menu items. It would be nice
if a developer would actually visit the support forum, but since it’s been months,
I thought I’d post here. [ link redacted, please do not post links in the reviews
