Navigation Block with Mega Menu

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 100% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

   Hello, thanks for creating a block based mega menu! I use this plugin in a couple of projects together with WP default themes Twenty Twenty-Five and Twenty Twenty-For and want to address some usability issues in front and backend. When creating a menu in FSE editor in a Header template part the dropdown/submenu is usually not visible when you click on a Menu Item. You have to scroll to view all items. The desired behaviour would be to see the whole submenu as shown in the WP plugin “Sreenshots” section. When you click on a Plain Menu item placed in a submenu it actually links within the Header Template to the linked page. I then see the frontend of the website within the Header Template which is apparently a bug. When I want to go back I get an error message and need to exit and re-enter the FSE editor. It would be nice to add also a menu-is-open class to body in order to make it non-scrollable when opening the menu. Currently the menu is not WCAG compatible, there are no aria attributes and you can not navigate through keyboard with TAB, Enter/Space, ESC. Thanks,Georg

   First of all, thanks for providing a mega menu plugin that supports block themes and Full Site Editing 🙏 It would be very helpful if this plugin had a documentation page with some examples of how it should look. I tried to use it to build a mega menu, and found that the mobile version has a major usability issue : the toggle button to show the mega menu is way too small, only 20px wide. Maybe I didn’t built it correctly ? Hard to say without a demo that I could compare to. PS: I opened an issue on the github repository, with a screencapture that shows the problem.

   This plugin saved the day for my plunge into building a custom block theme. The alternatives were ugly, huge mega-menu builds that are not easy to implement for a smaller site.

   Simple to use. I hope more people start using FSE/block-theme-friendly mega menu plugins. The mobile menu toggles should change to the ones from core navigation block. The “Plain Menu” block works the same as the core Nav block (did I miss something?)

   This plugin was very useful for adding a megamenu to my shop, I had to modify it a bit but the result is excellent! Definitely does not deserve this rating, keep it up guys!

   When I first added the plugin, I would have rated it high as it did the job I needed: adding a non-menu menu as a block with Gutenberg. It worked perfectly fine with my main theme & blocks builder: Kadence Pro.I haven’t had need to change any of the places where I’m using the blocks till now – and frankly, there are major issues with compatibility and the blocks cause the WP editor to be unresponsive. (Though the front end continues to display fine.) After much back and forth, this plugin has a major conflict with Kadence theme & blocks – and it appears that the plugin’s developers have abandoned it, or changed directions that no longer align with Kadence. Sounds like it still works for some, and it still works on my site’s front end. But the plugin is unusable on the backend now with Kadence and would not recommend the combo.

   The plugin works and it’s easy to create a mega menu if you know how to work with blocks. I would suggest that there is no transitions for the menu, so that would have to be added with css. It lacks a few options such as controlling what gets clicked and you will have to completely style it yourself. This is suitable for developers but not DIY types that want theming to be part of the menu.
