Topic: recent Showkase upgrade makes menu vertical [SOLVED]

I just upgraded ShowKase and everything looks fine except for the navigation menu. It used to display along a horizontal line. It now displays vertically, and pushes everything else down the page. Help!

Same thing with the submenu: http://www.petraluz.com/EN/portfolio/

Re: recent Showkase upgrade makes menu vertical [SOLVED]

The Kosel theme still displays the navigation menu horizontally (in Showkase v1.3.0) except in narrow browser windows or on mobile devices where a menu icon is displayed (four horizontal lines) which can be clicked/tapped to toggle a vertical menu on and off.
When I view both your web pages in desktop browsers, the navigation menu is displayed horizontally as expected. The submenu page displays the top-level menu on a single horizontal line of text and the secondary menu, which changes depending on the top-level page currently being displayed, is also on a single horizontal line of text (below the top-level menu).
If you are not seeing this, then please try clearing your browser's cache before reloading your site to see if this makes a difference.

Huh. Now it's fine. :)

Cache issue, methinks.

Hmmm, I'm having the same issue on the French and German versions of this site: http://petraluz.com/DE/ and http://petraluz.com/FR/

I have cleared the cache and checked several machines. The update was done a couple of days ago.

Re: recent Showkase upgrade makes menu vertical [SOLVED]

I see the problem you describe in your DE and FR sites (but have not been able to replicate the problem in a test site of my own).
It certainly looks like a CSS problem which may be caused by a mixture of old and new files (perhaps one or more of the updated Showkase files did not overwrite existing files on your web server during the upgrade).
Try re-uploading all the '_themes' files from the Showkase v1.4.0 download zip package to your DE and FR Showkase installations on your web server to ensure that all files are present and correct. Hopefully this will help.
(If you have modified any '_themes' files or have edited any 'custom.css' files, please make a backup of them first before replacing them on your web server.)

Re: recent Showkase upgrade makes menu vertical [SOLVED]

On further investigation, in your DE and FR sites, the latest Showkase v1.3.0 files seem to be in place but the current HTML files have been generated with Showkase v1.0.1 templates (as can be seen in the comment in the <head> section).
Try republishing your DE and FR sites in case something went wrong during publishing (or perhaps the DE and FR sites have not yet been published after upgrading to Showkase v1.3.0).

Re: recent Showkase upgrade makes menu vertical [SOLVED]

Thanks that worked :)

Note: At first I didn't understand what the heck you meant by "Try republishing your DE and FR sites" but finally figured out that you meant "open a page in the admin area and click the Publish button again." I thought I needed to alter the code using a code editor like Coda on every single page and then re-send them via FTP. This was much easier. Clicking just one page was enough to fix it.

I'm glad that worked. Thank you for posting back to let me know.
