Mensy for WordPress

Mensy is a plugin that makes it easy to add drop-down menus to your WordPress theme. Just load the Mensy plugin and at the class mensy-menu to any ul element you want to turn into a drop down menu.

Download
mensy.1.0.2.zip

Usage
Example:

With Mensy installed, all you have to do to display the above menu is:

1

3
4
5
6

8
9
10
11
12
13

<ul class="mensy-menu">
    <li><a href="foo">List item 1</a></li>
    <li><a href="foo">Item with submenu</a>
        <ul>
            <li><a href="foo">Submenu item</a></li>
            <li><a href="foo">Submenu item 2</a>
                <ul>
                    <li><a href="foo">Three levels? Sure</a></li>
                    <li><a href="foo">However many.</a></li>
                    <li><a href="foo">We be flexible.</a>
                        <ul>
                            <li><a href="foo">Add more levels</a>
                            <li><a href="foo">Mensy can take it.</a>
                        </ul>
                    </li>
                </ul>
            </li>
        </ul>
    </li>
</ul>

Styling
Similar to Tippy, Mensy comes with the file mensy.factory.css. If you want to customize the styling, it is recommended that you copy messy.factory.css to mensy.css and make your changes to that new file. If you edit mensy.factory.css directly, any changes you make will be lost when upgrading the plugin to a new version.

Plans
In the future, Mensy will include various configuration options in the Admin panel, reducing (but probably not eliminating) the need to tweak the .js or .css file directly when customizing the plugin.

jr,

Putting it in your css isn’t quite enough; it needs to be on the html itself, which you should be able to set by editing your theme’s template.

I installed Mensy using the WordPress install and I want to change the way the plugin displays.

I would change the .css but can not seem to find the file.

Can you tell me where it would be located at?

Thanks for any assistance you can provide.

April,

mensy.factory.css is in wp-content/plugins/mensy/

I recommend making a copy of mensy.factory.css and calling the copy mensy.css. Keep both copies in wp-content/plugins/mensy/ Edit mensy.css rather than mensy.factory.css. If you make your changes to mensy.factory.css, you will lose those changes any time the plugin is updated.
