Hi Samuel,
First of all thanks for your extensive investigation on various
possibilities in front of us !!!
I personally liked the option https://www.sitepoint.com/ which would be
ideal to have with possibly 3 level navigation.
Nevertheless, let us start with having side pane to provide immediate
relief with the way proposed in the figures ginger_sidebar_1.png and
ginger_storage_2.png and eventually make it more better if it is too
complex doing all of it ones.
I agree with Daniel recommendation for the for ginger_sidebar*.png, ie.
have one second level tab for now and all the functionalities go under
the side pane which would be enabler in future some thing similar to
your proposal of https://www.sitepoint.com/
Thanks and Regards
Chandra

Hi team,
We currently have an issue with Ginger/Gingerbase navigation bar in
small screen resolutions and we also have huge tables in System
Services page. Since working on the navigation bar involves editing
Wok styles, I’m sending this e-mail to Wok mailing list instead of
Ginger group.
I looked for successful combinations of sidebar + horizontal
navigation bars and so far I couldn’t find any example that would
exactly fit with Wok and its plugins. The majority of examples I’m
listing below are very good with traditional pages with deep
subcategories and the navigation bars can work as sitemaps and replace
breadcrumbs:

Wok currently has two navigation levels. Kimchi doesn’t have multiple
sections but Ginger and Gingerbase uses collapsible panel groups to
separate sections that could be third level elements on a sidebar.
This was already discussed when we moved some features from Ginger to
Gingerbase but I think we could achieve a functional sidebar with up
to three levels without using a “landing page” for second-level elements.
In the attached screenshots ginger_sidebar1 and ginger_sidebar2 are
mockups for an off-canvas menu that would slide the main content and
hide itself once an option is clicked. It would also hide the other
panel accordions. Here are two off-canvas menu in action:
·http://codepen.io/SitePoint/full/uIemr/
·https://codepen.io/benske/full/cxrta/
Since this would require a change in Wok tabs and ginger/gingerbase
tab-ext.xml, I think we could implement something entirely different
that would with Wok and all plugins. This site menu only have
first-level options on the sidebar but I think we could add
collapsible links like a tree-table menu: https://www.sitepoint.com/
In addition to the sidebar, we could put a search/filter input on the
top that would allow the user to type the desired option and show its
position on the menu. Please take a look at the remaining attached
screenshots. I did one variation with the content aligned to the
center and another one aligned to the left.
Regards,
Samuel
