Hover cursor in menu item: caret?

    Hi, testing out Boxzilla. Nice product that is helping me solve a simple challenge in Highend theme: a popup from the footer menu link for a 1-page landing site. Works great except the hovering cursor is a caret, which is not standard. I prefer a button/link’s regular pointer. I find no ability inherently to change feature.

    Thoughts are welcome, thanks, drew..

    There is no special cursor setting / change for boxzilla boxes. It should at all times show the default cursor for whatever you hold the cursor above.

    Ahh, that makes sense, and perhaps a future update will recognize when a boxzilla is being used from the menu options and thus set the cursor to be the regular pointer rather than the textual label of the link that it is over. I can live with it as is until i find a better way to pop up windows from the footer menu, thank you.

    Please share a link to where I can see this on your website so I can take a look at this. Thanks!

    hey Lap, sure, you can see the first iteration at here.

    Flip to the bottom, on the right, hover over “telegram” to see the natural cursor, then hover over the other links (3 of the 4 are Boxzilla), and you will see the issue manifest.

    Instead of using the <a onlcik=".." you use now, I would use <a href="#Boxzilla-176">...

    If you really want to keep the onlcick for some reason, just add href=”#” to the to still trick the browser into thinking it’s a link.

    Hope that helps. If you have any questions, please let me know!

    saving
    <a href="#Boxzilla-187">'
    into the url box of the WP menu option results in https://a%20href=#Boxzilla-187 stored, which will not function of course. I will be back tonight to revisit this, a sad funeral to attend.

    in the URL box you only put: #Boxzilla-187

    You indirectly helped me solve this, and i hope this helps others: the current version of Boxzilla builds the menu item as #boxzilla-187 … noting the lowercase “b” in box. Slug-like text is generally lowercase so i took no notice. I noted above the certainty of your post in that this *should* work, but it did not at my end. Then i noted the caps difference. Once you edit the prebuilt menu item to be as: #Boxzilla-187, it works perfectly. Thanks!
