I would like to compress the drop-down menus within the Mega Menu interface. For example, I only want to show the parent categories in the list, as shown below:

 

 

 

This would be useful for several reasons, chief of which are:

  1. Having a scrolling menu is unusual and a little inconvenient
  2. We want to mimic the header across other portions of our site and the scrolling menu is difficult to maintain outside of the inSided platform

I know we could make our own menu, but the logistics of coding it and getting it to work with other parts of the inSided platform have been a nightmare. It is easier to use what’s built-in.

I really like this idea. Indeed a concern for us is that this dropdown will continue to grow to an unmanageable length as we continue to add categories. It’d be great to see an option to control with categories display in this dropdown, or even to give the option to collapse/expand parent categories within the menu.

 

Another way this could potentially be addressed would be to have the dropdown default to only showing a few categories and present the user a “Show More” option that allows them to expand to show more options

We would love this feature as well. We’re using the community for a public customer-facing forum, a private employee-partner forum, private beta testing for the next release, and drafts for KBAs - meaning if you have all those permissions you see an INSANE menu. I’d love just parent categories - or the option to choose/see more.

Supporting this idea myself as it’s a feedback I have gotten from superusers saying the menu is way too long and should only display the main categories first.

We would need to be able to add sub-pages to the Ideation drop-down menu, to enable embedding several ProductBoard portals in the sub-sections.
