I seem to be having trouble with getting the navigation menu on my site – gooner.ubik.com – to look the way I want it to.

I don’t really want the numbers to appear at the start of each link, which I’ve noticed other sites seem to have got rid of, and the link labels are being truncated even though I’ve shortened them so that they should all fit on one line.

Does anyone have any ideas what I should do to overcome these snags?

Apart from that, I’ve found the site very easy to use and am pleased to have discovered it.

Hello,

the numbers added to navigation is a feature recently added, to make visitors experience on ubik sites smoother – the numbers indicate keyboard shortcuts for the menuitems – [3] menuitem is accessed directly by pressing 3 on keyboard.

We will add option to turn this on/off soon (in next update which is coming in few weeks).

Thanks Petr. I hadn’t realised they were shortcuts, but now I do, I’ll probably leave them in anyway. Good to know there will soon be an option though.

Any idea about the truncating of the page names in the navigation menu?

It seems as a bug, i’ll raise it with developers and let you know.

Hi,

so the behavior you discovered is a bug, appearing when you switch icons view on a and off (label shortening is applied for icon labels, but should be disabled back in menu view).

For now, only way to fix this is to recreate the navigation. We’re working on a fix though, to be available in next update.

Many thanks for investigating. I’d switched to icons briefly whilst exploring the various options, so that explains it. I’ll recreate the navigation rather than wait for the fix. Cheers.
