I have one or two more ideas for the sidebar menu:

1. To be able to put it on the right side (I think this question has been asked before).

2. To make sure that it closes when you click anywhere on the page.

3. Optionally, that the containers on the website do not get smaller and the menu overlays the page. It looks weird when all the text moves and rebuilds. I've never seen anything like this on other sites.

There is actually an update to the sidebar menu available already on the website which enables a right side menu:

https://www.ambiera.com/rocketca...

Also, this adds the option to close the menu again when the button is pressed again already.

Unfortunately, you need to delete your current menu and add it again with the new version - then add your old menu items again in order to use that feature.

The option that all the containers won't get smaller is already in there since a few versions, btw.

I can't find any of the settings when I click on the container with the sandwich from the menu...

You need to delete your old menu on your website, then place a new sidebar component onto your page (you have downloaded and installed the new version, right?) - then the options will become visible.

For some reason, the menu wouldn't install correctly.

I re-downloaded and reinstalled it, and now it works.

However, my header is now above the navigation.
I fixed the header with position: fixed; z-index: 1000;

When I change the z-index of the menu, it seems to only affect the button.

(P.S. I always think it's cool that when the menu opens, the rest of the page is slightly dimmed.)

If the menu stays behind the header, that's fine, too. However, you would then need to be able to move the navigation text down.

I've now moved the menu to the bottom.

thesidebarMenu a:first-of-type {
margin-top: 80px; /* bottom padding */
}
thesidebarMenu a:nth-of-type(2) {
margin-top: 80px; /* bottom padding */
}

However, I haven't yet gotten it to close when I click elsewhere on the page. I find it very cumbersome having to search for the x with the mouse again. Alternatively, I could have a gray, transparent overlay across the entire page that closes the menu when touched.

True, would be an idea, I'll see if I can add this with the next update.
