WordPress plugin which provides a widget with a clickable dropdown of a WordPress navigation menu.…
Convert a Navigation Menu to a dropdown which you visitors can use to navigate to another page.
This can be a nifty element on mobile webpages or just to provide a quick way to navigate to users.
We are proud to be featured on:
– WordPress tutorials
– WP Missing: install the Navigation as dropdown plugin
– The blog of WordPress survey plugin

Screenshots
The dropdown on the frontend with the selected menu. The current page will be selected by default.
How to place the widget from the admin panel
How do I use this widget?
If you go to Widgets in the Appearance menu, you will be able to drag-and-drop the
‘Navigation menu as dropdown’ widget to a place of your choosing.
Please give a title (or not) and select the menu to convert to a dropdown.
Can I also submit a custom start-text?
Yes you can, when you add the widget you will see that option.
Can I also preselect the current page?
Yes you can, there is an option “Preselect the visited page in dropdown” when you add the widget.
Can I customize the appearance / styling of the dropdown?
Yes you can, with CSS. If you know your way around CSS you might already know that you can
style elements by their class name or HTML structure. We just have a simple select-element
here. The pages inside (option-elements) have classes. For the upper layer it’s pd_tld,
the second layer has pd_sld.
Styling selects still is hard in current browsers, but this is changing.
I do offer help on styling / CSS if you are willing to make a small donation.
Does it support more than 1 level in linkstructure?
No, not at this moment. I will work on that. It currently supports one level of parent-child structure.
