    Hi, I’m inserting more of ten categories in the full-width submenu and each has a different number of subcategories (sometimes are 16, others are 8, sometimes are 3 and so on).
    The problem is that there’s often too much space between the categories and so the alignment is compromised.
    Is there a way to eliminate the space (padding) between the various categories?
    Here’s a photo of my menu:

    Hello,

    Please add this code into custom.css file.

    .main-nav .menu .menu-full-width .nav-sublist-dropdown .container > ul > li{
    float:none !important;
    display:inline-block;
    vertical-align: top;
    }

    Thanks for the quick reply, but unfortunately this seems not working 🙂
    I’d like to have an alignment similar to the one in this website (the only difference is that their menu opens with a click):

    http://www.myselleria.it/C82-accessori-per-equitazione

    as you can see they don’t have any item floating around the full-width menu.

    I just checked and this isn’t a matter of font-size :/

    Thanks Robert for the great and fast support!
    We’re on the right way but it’s not perfect also because it’s not workin when the “fixed menu” option is on.
    I’ve made some change in the font size and items order and the alignment is not going back in order.
    Cannot find your modification in the code (i think you changed the padding of the menu items but where?there’s nothing new in the custom.css)..if you show me where to do it i can work on it by myself and be free to change the items orders and fix it everytime i want.
    Have a nice day!

    Thanks for your support. Now everything is ok except for 1 thing: when I have 4 columns with 8 categories, the last 4 categories are not aligned to the first 4 and there’s no space between the first and the 2nd level (“integratori” is too close to “tosatrici e pettini”:

    is there a way to fix that?

    Hello,

    I’ve added the following code into custom.css file:

    li.menu-item.menu-item-type-taxonomy.menu-item-object-product_cat.menu-item-has-children.menu-parent-item.menu-item-8600 {
    margin-top: 10px;
    }

    Please check the menu now.

    Thanks Eva, now the horizontal alignment is pretty much fixed, but when I scroll down the page and I have the fixed header active the new menu shows some of the items losing their alignment, floating down or a kind of. It seems like Legenda full-width menu isn’t a good solution if you need to start a new paragraph, it seems working well with 1 horizontal line of items only (maximum 6). It’s a pity because the full-width menu is a great solution when you need to insert much stuff. Let me know if there’s a way to fix this problem, I was considering to work with this template again in the near future.

    Hello,

    I’ve added the following code into custom.css for the fixed header:

     .fixed-header .menu > li.menu-full-width .nav-sublist-dropdown .container > ul > li {
    width:20%;
    }
     .fixed-header .menu > li.menu-full-width .nav-sublist-dropdown .container > ul > li {
    float:none;
    display:inline-block;
    vertical-align:top;
    margin-left: 0px;
    }

    Please check if it’s fine now and clear browser cache before.

    Hi Eva, thanks a lot for the great support. Everything is fixed now, except for the last three categories in “ARTICOLI PER EQUITAZIONE” which are not aligned. I tried everything and it seems like there’s no way to fix them properly.

    this is the menu (not aligned), we have tried different solutions to fix it but
    it seems impossible to make the 2nd line of items aligned with the 1st one

    Hello,

    Sorry, but that is the only solution that we could find to fix the issue with menu items.
    Please take our apologies.

    Hello,

    I am having a similar problem. Under ‘Clothing’ we have 10 sub-categories. I want them to be in two columns and for some reason, there is some strange indentation where it shouldn’t be. Could you please have a look for me? My website URL is in private content below.

    Thanks!

    Thanks Robert, that worked!

    I’ve added a picture to the menu (am going to add another one or two later), how can I get it (or them) to be on the right of the sub-categories rather than at the bottom? Also, can I get the two columns to be slightly closer together?

    Maybe you need class et-col3 for this.

    Hello Robert,

    I’ve just added et-col3 in the css classes for the image but I think it has only made the image slight bigger and hasn’t changed it’s position…

    The documentation doesn’t seem to say how to position images on the menu either.

    Please help!

    Hello Robert, thanks for the help! Though there’s one more thing that needs changing. All items under clothing are subcategories, but currently it’s as if dresses and leggings are the main categories under clothing, with the other ones underneath them. Could you help me fix it please?

    Thanks!

    I’ve just had a look at menus in the admin panel and change them (so they’re all at the same level), now they’re all over the place!

    It’s because there is no contribution. You need to do them correctly.

    So does it mean that I have to have sub-items under each subcategory under ‘clothing’? The subcategories were aligned correctly yesterday (without having any sub-items underneath them) before we move the image up.. Is there any way to get around this?

    If you want add image and nice menu, then there should be a submenu with class et-col as it was edited by me.

    Hi Robert, are you saying that it’s not possible to align the categories under clothing without having sub-items under them?
