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.

    Why is this not part of the Word press core. Sure it is just JS and css, but it is so useful! Menus should often be better built from the page structure, not created manually. I see people asking for this kind of menu all the time. Good luck finding one that works as good as this one. Thank you, thank you thank you.

    I set out one morning (with not a lot of time to waste) to add a mobile menu to my site (amidst heavy development). I compiled a list of features that I was after, and once I came across SlickNav Mobile Menu it was great to see that it satisfied all of my requirements, “out of the box” as they say. To the small technical problem I had at the start I received immediate assistance from the plugin author. Thank you very much for this plugin, and keep up the good work!

    <!– wp:paragraph –> <p class=””>I like how the plugin works. One issue I ran into is that somehow the plugin alters the display of the desktop view of the menu. I don’t have time to troubleshoot it so I ended up using a different mobile nav plugin which didn’t give me the same issue.</p> <!– /wp:paragraph –> This topic was modified 6 years, 9 months ago by Skylabb.

    I can’t fault this – I can use the non-WP version (coded!) for HTML sites and if I need to insert a blog page, use the WP plugin with no visible change for the user – the user doesn’t know that have moved from an HTML page to a WP page. Also able to mod nicely too. As a web designer, I love this plugin.
