Mobilize Plugin

Mobilize adds a lightweight mobile menu to your site, if the width is lower than a certain value.

The Mobilize plugin adds a lightweight mobile menu to your site, if the width is lower than a certain (configurable) value.

Use the native behaviour (fixed top bar) or assign one of your existing menu items (a hamburger icon or a “Quick Jump” menu item).

The menu works with the latest WordPress version and is fully compatible with the block editor (Gutenberg).

Features

🌟 Responsive Navigation Menu: Mobilize automatically transforms your website’s navigation into a user-friendly mobile menu when the screen width falls below a specified threshold (default: 768px). This ensures optimal usability for your visitors on various devices.

🌟 Custom Menu Integration: Assign your existing WordPress menus or create a dedicated menu specifically for the mobile experience. Mobilize provides a separate menu location, allowing you to tailor the navigation structure for smaller screens.

🌟 Reusable Block Support: Enhance your mobile menu with additional content by easily inserting a reusable block from the WordPress block editor. This feature lets you add extra functionality, such as search forms, social media links, or any custom content you desire.

🌟 Customizable Appearance: Personalize the look and feel of your mobile menu with various color options for the background, text, links, and accent elements. Choose from two pre-defined themes or create your own unique style.

🌟 Sliding Animation: Mobilize offers a smooth sliding animation when opening and closing the mobile menu, providing a polished user experience. You can even choose the direction (left or right) for the sliding animation.

🌟 Easy Setup and Configuration: With a user-friendly options page in the WordPress admin area, you can quickly set up and customize Mobilize to suit your website’s branding and requirements.

More menu themes coming soon!

Give your website’s mobile visitors a seamless and delightful navigation experience with Mobilize. Enhance usability, engage users, and provide a consistent brand experience across all devices.
