Different Arrows For Multiple Menus On Same Page about superfish

[joeldbirch]

I think that as soon as you start altering any third-party core code that's a sign that you're doing it wrong. This is really just a CSS issue that you should beg or employ someone to help you with.

Why not just have all top-level items have arrows-down when they have subs and all nested items have arrows-right, as per the default Superfish CSS, and just hide the top-level arrows of the admin bar by targetting them with a class that only the admin bar has? Such as:

.admin-bar > li > a > .sf-sub-indicator {
    display: none;
}

From your description, it seems like this is all you need. I may have misunderstood though.

Hi,
Yes, I have our CSS folks looking at it but I needed to get it working for now.

The “why not” question is not up to me. I just do what the “designers” want and they want it like I described and it’s a fight I won’t win. ;)

I think I tried what you suggested already but it didn’t work. I’ll report back after I had a chance to talk to our CSS folks. Thanks much.

I thought my "why not" suggestion did match how your designers want it. I guess I misunderstood. Either way, it's definitely a CSS issue. Hope you get it done.

Actually, I misunderstood. You’re right, your “why not” suggestion would do what we want. Thank you.

Joel,
Your suggestion worked great. :) Thank you. And all before our CSS team woke up.
