iPad Nav Not Working Properly

[kelleychambers]

Hey Jason,

My client who’s helping me test on other platforms, the iPad in this case, has found what appears to be a bug that does not existing in Android, Mac OSX or PC. When I did a search I found the same question that was not allowed to view the answer of in the JumpStart forum (http://support.themeblvd.com/forums/topic/dropdown-menu-on-ipad/). The issue is as follows:

When a user touches the menu and does not choose a selection, the dropdown menu does not disappear as it does in the other platforms. He is using an iPad3. In the event you’d like to see for yourself what my client is experiencing, the site is http://dev.rwpstudios.com/inex.

Could you please pass on the answer from the other forum? Thanks so VERY much, again, Jason! 🙂

I’m not sure what to tell you about that one other than I’m currently looking at seeing if the updated version of the jQuery plugin we use to handle the dropdowns, Superfish, can be incorporated into the next update.

They apparently have better support for touch devices now: http://users.tpg.com.au/j_birch/plugins/superfish/

=========

Lars: Open dropdown menu – Go to page – Hit back button on iPad – Drop down menu stuck open. Bug?

Jason: When you hit the back button on your iOS device, you’re going back and not refreshing the page, so wouldn’t that be expected behavior? I don’t think there’d be any way around that.

Have you confirmed this truly IS a bug in this theme, too, Jason – as opposed to just Jumpstart? Wasn’t sure if you had actually experienced it or heard from other developers who have reported the problem.

Also, when will the next update come out so I know what expectation to set with my client?

Yup, same thing happens on my end.

Also, when will the next update come out so I know what expectation to set with my client?

Can’t say for sure, but am trying really hard to finish by the time WP 3.6 gets released.
