    understand how to customize a vertical left sidebar like i can with the pro weaver pro verical menu widget.

    the equivalent of the Pro vertical menu Widget is The widget called X-Plus menus

    This widget comes with the licensed “plus” plugin that provides advanced features to Xtreme (kind of like pro was and advanced version of weaver II). The difference, is that instead of having two different themes like Weaver II (free)and weaver II Pro (for purchase). You have a single theme (free) called Weaver Xtreme, and a for purchase plugin called “Plus”

    The “Plus” plugin provides you with a lot of advanced Features like Extra menus and that style vertical menu widget.

    i have read and learned a lot that you and joy have answered other peoples questions and i bet their is not a boring week,
    thanks for your wisdom concerning these themes.

    I could purchase the plugin but i have already purchased weaver pro and now if, i say if, i start using
    extreme i have to spend another approx. over $30.00.

    I would like to know if there is another alternative concerning left sidebar vertical menu for extreme.
    like the text widget and or others.
    Thanks

    You can use the Default WordPress Custom Menu Widget, and style it manually. I have some basic guideline for it in the tutorial below, and we can work on more if necessary

    I have no knowledge of jquery vertical mega menu.

    If you are using a plugin, you should ask the plugin developer (after reviewing its help carefully 🙂  )

    It could be an overflow:hidden CSS issue, or a z-index issue.

    If you don’t get anywhere with the plugin developer, give us a link to the page with specifics.

    If it is an overflow z-index issue, we can help figure out the CSS

    i dont know if this will help, the reason i am sending it this way is because dont know if
    you can link to localhost. My online wordpress site is http:donfruge.com using the weaver menu
    widget in pro.

    I found out that overflow:hidden;to visible because when i turn it off  the subs flyout works also
    i read on the internet that position: relative x and or y could be one of the culprits.
    bottom line i am just not good with which id or class elements to use, but i am working on it.

    The <aside id=”dc_jqverticalmegamenu_widget-2 line is the node/element???

    i have tried different combinations of #’s id, class . i just cant seem to make it work other than, unchecking, or typing
    visible.  All  good until a refresh.

    no problem dont worry about it i will figure it out(really) thanks and i understand that jquery has nothing to do
    with you or joy
    again thanks for your help.

    The overflow:hidden is both on the widget area AND the widget, so What you need is put the following rule in Main options > Fonts & Custom > Custom CSS Rule box

    #primary-widget-area, #primary-widget-area.widget {overflow:visible;}
    #secondary-widget-area, #secondary-widget-area.widget {overflow:visible;}

    If you want support like this , you really need to setup a test site online somewhere that we could access

    i did exactly what you sent me back on your last comment and theyre still in the css box
    but i added the below and by accident it has worked with that extra.

    i havent deleted what you told me to put in the font css box and maybe later on i will delete one
    at the time to see if the flyout will work with it or without.
    I always had an issue with the <aside didnt know if it should be treated as id or class and also should it be
    part of the element after #.

    Anyway till next time thanks a lot very good communicating.

    #dc_jqverticalmegamenu_widget-2.widget.widget-1.widget-first.widget-first-vert.widget-last.widget-last-vert.widget-odd{overflow:visible;}

    I am not sure I follow what you are saying.

    The rules I gave you remove the overflow:hidden on the widget area and the widget. So it should be all you need

    Your rule only removes it on the widget , so just by itself it should not work.

    By the way, there is no need to put every single class in your rule, just the ID selector would do

    #dc_jqverticalmegamenu_widget-2 {overflow:visible;}

    Another combination that would work if your widget is in the primary widget area is

    #primary-widget-area, #dc_jqverticalmegamenu_widget-2 {overflow:visible;}

    Which would remove the overflow: hidden on the primary widget area, and your menu widget

    the only reason i went a step further with the #dc is because those two rules you
    sent the first time didnt do it for me.(they were what i thought would work i am 100% with you)

    So i kept clicking on the dc rule and it showed overflow hidden so thats why i
    tried it.

    Thanks for the 101 class (.)lesson i will have to remember it. the aside is what i couldnt see pass. why go to the fonts/css box instead of advanced options/head section???

    Thanks Again

    the rules may have needed !important, and this is why you need to set a site online we can look at.

    We could have checked exactly why the rule did not work, and either point at an error on your part, or give the corrected rules.

    You just need to create a wordpress installation in a sub folder of any site you manage online, and use that as a test site where you can load your settings and reproduce the issue you are having for us to look at.
