Collapsed sections in mobile sidebar don’t expand when changing views

Bug
1

Collapsed sections in sidebar drop down mode in mobile view don’t expand when you go back to desktop view. while this isn’t a big deal, i tend to switch views a lot and i don’t think that is expected behavior. one has to switch views back to mobile and expand the collapsed sections before switching to desktop. i guess because the drop down navigator sidebar doesn’t have collapsing/ expanding sections like the sliding one. desktop view button probably needs a navigation menu section expander code added to it.

repro:

  1. set navigation_menu to header dropdown
  2. go to mobile view and collapse menu sections
  3. switch to desktop view and try navigator menu

This is a great catch.

We need to build an override here @awesomerobot / @tgxworld so we never have anything collapsed when stuff is in hamburger mode.

i’m going to move it from drop down to sidebar on my forum. i like that it is more similar to the mobile view that way. i think my users will grow to like it, especially with the manually expanding and collapsing sections and the menu itself. i think the desktop users (of which i have many) will like that it can stay expanded.

after using the navigation menu in drop down hamburger mode for awhile i personally much prefer the sideburger.

i know some of my older users will complain at first but i can always blame Discourse lol :sweat_smile:
