Bedford Display on Mobile

Recommended Posts

Hi, I'm trying to use a product page in bedford. On desktop it is perfect, the category display at the side.

However in mobile when you land on the page the "+" button to expand the categories is barely visable and I've had a number of people say they can't find it. Is there any way to add text infront of this or even open the page with the drop down menu already dropped down?

It will really help us if you include a working link to the page in your question. It allows us to see the issue first-hand.  If your site isn't live yet, please set a site password and tell us what it is, so that we can view it.

Yes, either could be done - add text to the tiny "-" icon or make the menu always visible.

If it were me, I'd make the category nav visible all the time, but make the links appear inline so they don't take up too much space on the smaller display.

I took a look at the site, but you appear to have the mobile styles disabled? I see a desktop view on mobile.

Bedford is an older template and you are right that it doesn't support some of the newer features like the Advanced Products Page. However, it is still one of the most popular template families and you can still modify things like the category navigation bar with code.

I see you've removed the category nav now, so I'm assuming you don't need a solution for it now.
