Can You Change Mobile Menu Format?

Recommended Posts

Site URL: https://www.weacceptcryptocurrency.com/

I've been speaking with users of my site recently to see how I can improve it, and nearly all of them say that they didn't even recognize the mobile menu icon as a menu. SquareSpace uses a hamburger icon with two lines rather than three, and people don't seem to recognize this as a menu.

Would it be possible to replace the mobile hamburger menu with just the word "Menu"? I believe this would reduce bounce rate on my site significantly and improve user experience.

Hi Christy, thank you so much! I had found a roundabout way to do it (was using "button" class rather than "burger-inner" class) but this looks way better. I added bold font and a border above the "Menu" button and I really like the way it looks. Adding the "X" when it opens is a great UX touch too so thank you for that!

If you have any idea how to add the Site Title to all pages above a certain screen width (I'm thinking 300px based on screen testing) or if there is a resource you could point me to it would be amazing! I've looked all over these forums and on the web generally and I can't find any way to include both the logo and site title with CSS which I think would look 1000x better than having just the logo.

Also if you accept cryptocurrency as payment let me know and I can list you on our site with a hyperlink!

Hi @WeAcceptCrypto,

This may get you close. The menu bars are visible for a second, and the X sits a little lower than Menu, but you can play around with those bits. Add this to Design > Custom CSS:

 

You can also use class .burger-box,

.burger-inner: display none

.burger-box:after {menu} 😅

Much cleaner @tuanphan- thanks!

Today a client hired me to do this, and I thought I would use your code (thank for your code),

but then discovered that burger-boxes could use and find this code, too. 😅😅

Hi @LauraStoker, here's a clean version of the code. Paste this into Design > Custom CSS:

.burger-box,
.burger-inner {
  display: none;
} 
.burger::after {
content: "MENU";
}

Wow thanks so much for your speedy reply!

I'm trying to add in your 'X' when it's active, too. I'm not sure where to put that piece of code, though.

Eeeee I think I've got it!

.burger-box,
.burger-inner {
  display: none;

.burger::after {
content: "MENU";

.burger--active::after {
content: "CLOSE";
