7.1 header - center logo + split navigation

Recommended Posts

Site URL: https://chameleon-grouse-yjyf.squarespace.com/config/

I am reconstructing an existing site (originally built in Wix) for a client. Is it possible in 7.1 to have a center logo with evenly split navigation links (i.e. two to the left of the logo and two to the right of the logo)? This isn't an option in the Header Layout settings. 

I've attached an image of the desired placement result. 

Thanks! 

Kim

I'm trying to solve the issue by playing with the margins/padding of the navigation links - my client isn't willing to pay for a business plan so I'm relying solely on CSS.

I need to test it more thoroughly, but so far it seems to be doing the trick.

I used the following code:

// Navigation Links Spacing //
.header-nav-item:nth-child(3) a {
padding-left: 100px!important;}
.header-nav-item:nth-child(2) a {
margin-left: 0px!important;
margin-right: 450px!important;}

You can try using position relative with negative value for left for nth-child(3), recently I solved for a member using this approach

Thanks @tuanphan - in the end I ended up cheating as the code I used above became tricky on pages where the logo wasn't hidden.

Instead I've ended up utilising the email and social media elements and using the header button for the contact phone number. Have attached photo. It's a simple fix but it's done the job for this particular project!

Hi @tuanphan, is the only way to have  Nav (left) -  logo (centre) - Nav (Right)
by using JavaScript? Any pointers would be much appreciated. Thanks.

You can use CSS, however it is time consuming

I would like to do this myself. Not scared of CSS/JavaScript. Stack Overflow link is useful, but it's not clear which markup/code snippets should be added to the site Code Injection for the split navigation to work. Can someone point me in the right direction

I want three nav links, then logo, then three nav links (left to right) in header.
