I have done the research in this and I don't believe it is a socialize problem but a problem with the way socialize integrates with the T-3 framework.
I am using megamenu and pre-jomsocial 4.x and Socialize 2.0 the top level of my pull down menus (example my classified ads) was clickable and loaded the page. Now that I have upgraded it no longer works.
I have done the researched found the problem to here:
github.com/t3framework/t3/issues/339
Unfortunately I am visually impaired and have TBI Issues... I have been stumbling to find this in the socialize template.
Can you please investigate this further to see if you can fix this. I am sure I am not the only person who is having problems with this on socialize and this can impact the operations of someone's very busy site. Thankfully I've not launched yet :-)
Thanks millions
Allen
Hi Allen,
I suggest you to uninstall socilize, t3 framework plugin, and jomsocial socialize toolbar module from joomla extension manager.
after that, re-install it again. because I tried with my fresh instalation, I cant reproduce this issue.
Regards
Albertus tried this three times and no luck. I firmly believe this one to be a problem with T-3 that we have to accommodate in the template. I have figured out a way around this... I just put the option that was clickable into a new option below when the pull down opens up. BOOM it's fixed that way ;-) but not how it used to work or how I would prefer it to work.
Hi, Allen.
As far I remember it was always like that -parent item wasn't clickable. After clicking on it it was showing dropdown menu. Or if you use hover effect - there was no need to click it.
Parent item get a href="#" so link is cut off to serve just like dropdown activator.
This was due mobile technology limitation - hold on evokes context menu in mobiles...
This is documented on T3's website please see link above others have seen it stop working and there was a way to make it work. If I right click and choose open in tab it will open the link as normal.
Hi, Allen.
Ok, I'll pass this to our developers.
Hi, Allen.
Your issue is caused by Onis extension. It loads additional bootstrap.js
<script src="
derbycity.us/plugins/system/oniscore/js/bootstrap.js
" type="text/javascript"></script>
This file caused that clicking on parent element triggers submenu to show up (duplicate hover action - set in Socialize backend).
Also "Classifieds" can't be Text separator.
I changed it to random link (weblinks).
And disabled Onis extension and it works. I enabled it back so you could do it yourself.
Just disable all ONIS extensions :)
Please, contact with Onis developers.
