Top Horizontal Menu not displaying subcategories after 1.6.1 upgrade

[skaarup]

Tried to revert blocktopmenu module to old version, but it made no difference. Arrow is there, but hover does not make submenus appear.

 

 

Upgraded test site, that does not work:

 

http://test.apollonmusik.dk

 

 

1.5 site, that still works:

 

http://www.apollonmusik.dk

 

 

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Have you tried to reset the blockmenutop module? After that, clear all caches from prestashop as well as your browsers cache.

I also have the impression your <strong>theme and your javascript</strong> loaded looks quite old. Note that some funcionality might not work if you use a PS 1.5. theme in combination with PS 1.6. core. Your category pages also look crippled, on the old as well as the new installation.

What I noted on the new install: you get 400 errors for some google requests like this one:

http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Arial"

But this should not be the problem in your case, but it should be solved anyway.

Recommendation
I would strongly recommend to test with the prestashop 1.6. default bootstrap theme. It will look more modern and you won't have breakups due to incompatibility between theme and core. And it would be responsive which your current site is not.

Thanks for responding!

I tried to completely reset it, and cleared cache (again) - but hover still doesn't expand submenus.

 

We are looking to upgrade to 1.7 - and give the site a complete overhaul, but would like to stick with the current theme for now. Only thing not working is this darn thing.

 

We tried the default theme and that works fine.

I would not uprade to 1.7 - there are too many discussions here on bugs and issues with the latest versions. Just use default theme on 1.6. and everything is good.

If the theme used is an V 1.5. theme, it won't work without changes. And it's likely you had to change quite much.

You even haven't confirmed for which version the theme was developed but it looks quite much like 1.5.

But in any case if it is developed for 1.5. you should upgrade to a 1.6. theme.

 

Since your existing 1.5.already looks quite crippled in terms of design and images, I don't see a reason to maintain the current theme any more.

You can try to post below code to your .js file (located in /modules/blocktopmenu/js/hoverIntent.js )

$(document).ready(function(){
            $('#nav li').hover(function(){
                
                if(!$(this).hasClass('sfHover') && $(this).children('a').next('ul').length > 0)
                {
                    $(this).addClass('sfHover');
                    $(this).children('a').next('ul').css({
                       'display' : 'block',
                       'visibility': 'visible' 
                    });
                }
            },function(){
                if($(this).hasClass('sfHover') && $(this).children('a').next('ul').length > 0)
                {
                    $(this).removeClass('sfHover');
                    $(this).children('a').next('ul').css({
                       'display' : 'none',
                       'visibility': 'hidden'  
                    });
                }
            });
        });

Good luck
