You are my favorite Elementor guru because you always mention SEO. The mega menu is useless if it hurts SEO. THANKS FOR MENTIONING THIS!

[@LytboxStudio]

I’m happy to see someone else share a passion for SEO!

Dud they fix the seo problem?

This is a great video - thanks so much! I'm using an icon list to achieve columns of navigation. Do you know of a way to make the current active page link styled, so the current page's link appears like 'active' / 'hover' after being clicked? Have tried to address the a via css, but no luck. Thanks in advance, and thanks again for the great videos! 😎

[@jessicaberggrun534]

Hey awesome video! Do you know if it's possible to blur the website background when the mega menu is expanded? The mega menu looks great, it just looks a little too busy right now!

Is it possible to display different images when hovering over the different menu sections (text) in the mega menu?

Hi, thanks for your beautiful video! I created one megamenu following your tutorial using wordpress menus instead of icon list. My problem is that the first level megamenu links don't stay active, could you please help me?

[@rswebmarketing]

Hello, thanks for this great video ! Indeed the SEO is a problem I already mentioned on one of your previous video. But do you think there could be a solution to avoid this SEO problem when using mega menu ? I feel like the problem is not about Elementor but about the mega menu concept himself. Thanks for your answer :)

[@LytboxStudio]

The best solution would be to hand-code a mega menu. I’ve seen some built with clean HTML semantics that has a similar output as menu with drop down submenu items

[@rswebmarketing]

@@LytboxStudio Sounds great. Would be nice that Elementor use same structure to avoid this SEO problems

[@leslietoh]

I tried and it doesn't work for me . Need help please

[@igormenegatti6144]

Ok but how on earth did you add descriptions to each item on the icon list? I've been wanting to do it forever and haven't found a way! PS: Your content has helped me throughout a year of building a massive website for the company I work in. I'll be forever grateful

[@LytboxStudio]

I got desertions by using Icon Boxes instead of Icon List and stacked the boxes to make them look like a list. You can do the same with an Icon list by using inline CSS (it’s really the best way to do it for cleaner code output). And I’m really happy to hear about your website!

[@infernosounds736]

Elementor has a greater future. Love this release

[@ChristopherSimmons]

Hi, liking your vids, but you need shock mount or pop filter as you have recurring low freq bumps which are hella annoying when watching on living room setup. Cheers.

[@DirectAim]

How does it translate onto mobile/tablet displays?

[@LytboxStudio]

Not good. I wouldn’t be using this for mobile or tablet. It’s basically the same as a container made mobile responsive but with the old drop down 😒 But to be fair, mega menus aren’t usually great for mobile. It’s better to create 2 menus, a mega for desktop and a dedicated one for tablet and mobile

[@zerobambiro]

Why did you remove the mega menu from your website again? Is it not stable?

[@LytboxStudio]

I don't use this Mega Menu from Elementor because it's not good for SEO. It's an easy way to build a mega menu, but a normal menu using the WordPress Menu widget is best for SEO

[@PaulHanley71]

Surely a mega menu isn't really for mobile?! You would only display a mega menu on desktop, maybe tablet but have a separate mobile specific menu displayed only for mobile. Just my view on this.

[@LytboxStudio]

I agree, turning a big menu menu into a mobile can make it difficult for mobile users to navigate. A simple mega menu could get away with it. But still, it would have been cool to have a slide out option or more thought into the mobile menu. It’s been lacking since the beginning of El

[@nayanponz7883]

You can create your mega menu only with popups, you don't need all of this, and the best about it, its light and it's not going to affect your website speed, Popups forever, BTW you can optimize it easily for SEO.

[@LytboxStudio]

Popups are better for performance but not ideal for menus as they they’re bad for SEO. Any menu items inside the popup are visible in the source code until they’re popped up which means Google can’t crawl and see your menu. That’s been the big downside to using popups for mobile menus. I like the popups too, just need to be careful when they’re in headers.

[@resistenzainutile]

How do you have popups closed by scrolling?

[@kwdigitalsolutionswebsited3365]

I'd like to know if you can use a Wordpress Menu, and only one menu item has a Mega Menu. So a traditional menu but one dropdown list is so long that it needs a mega menu.

[@LytboxStudio]

Good question. Better to use the menu widget if even just 1 menu items needs a mega drop down.
