Customize the bottom menu

[pauco84]

Hi every one,
I'm using Chameleon with the fixedhead layout.

I found out how to customize the bottom menu, so: I moved from the top menu the "Secondary-menu" down but I still have the tiny drop down symbol

Is there a way to change it with the "dropup" one? Should I do something with the class of the element? (I tried to add at the end <component type="Menu" message="secondary-menu" class="dropup"/> but of course is not working.

Many thanks in advance,
Paolo

I don't have a solution for this at the moment, but here's some info in case somebody wants to try something.

The dropdown class is hardcoded when using the Menu component:

chameleon/src/Components/Menu.php

Lines 59 to 61 in 4001c39

	if ( $depth === 1 && !empty( $subitems ) ) {
	return "<div class=\"nav-item dropdown\"><a class=\"nav-link dropdown-toggle $class\" href=\"#\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\" data-boundary=\"viewport\">$text</a>$subitems</div>";
	} else {

Additionally, the class attribute coming from the layout XML is added to the a tag, not the dropdown div.

In the Toolbox component the class is added to the dropdown div:

chameleon/src/Components/NavbarHorizontal/Toolbox.php

Lines 119 to 121 in 4001c39

	$ulElement = IdRegistry::getRegistry()->element( 'div',
	[ 'class' => 'nav-item p-tb-dropdown ' . $this->getClassString() ], $trigger . $liElement,
	$this->indent( -1 ) );

Since these two different behaviors for class have been part of Chameleon for a while we need to be careful when coming up with a solution. Some people might be relying on the current behavior for styling purposes, so my initial feeling is we need to add a new attribute to the Menu component which allows specifying the direction, perhaps:

<component type="Menu" message="secondary-menu" direction="dropup"/>
