Logo & Site Identity Layouts Needs Better Flexibility

    The customizer settings for the Logo & Site Identity (Customizing > Header), are too restrictive and they cause display problems.

    The options to display the logo, site title, along with the site tagline, are fixed to only 4 choices that work globally in all 3 view modes (Desktop, Tablet, Mobile). In other words, we cannot set these display options separately in each view mode, which ever display we choose in desktop applies for all view modes.

    That lack of flexibility is too restrictive for websites today and for your Neve theme.

    Unless there is a setting I have not found, then I suggest Neve developers offer more flexibility to this logo-site title settings in the customizer.

    The flexibility would be when we set the display for desktop, then click the tablet view, where we can set the display for that view, then mobile we can set it for that view. If we don’t set it for all three views, the desktop setting becomes global for all views.

    There are other themes that work their customizer settings like this. Desktop is global unless settings are made for Tablet or Mobile.

    Why am I suggesting this?

    1. Logo and site title with its tagline will not work side by side in mobile view, but will work if these three are set to display over top each other or if only the logo displays with no title and tagline. The display issue occurs, in mobile view, with the side by side placement, it takes too much space.

    2. Menu Display Problem – The mobile hamburger menu button disappears in mobile view if we choose any settings that have side by side display, because it takes too much space it pushes the mobile menu button off the right side. What works and removes this issue is when the logo and title are over each other or there is only the logo.

    3. The restrictive nature of this display settings makes it less viable to use and forces the user to chose one setting that he/she really does not want, because of the display issues in mobile.

    4. Providing the flexibility as described really works the same as forcing changes using Custom CSS. So providing this flexibility reduces the need for extra custom CSS to get the display the user wants.

    By creating the flexibility per my suggestion resolves the display problems I have described, making this feature far superior to the way it is currently.

    Thanks.

  • Hi @lospeso,

    Thank you for your feedback about the theme, and your request makes sense.
    We do not have the option to configure separately the header for the tablet, theme is responsive out of the box but you could change what are the items in the mobile menu and how they look there as per this guide – https://docs.themeisle.com/article/1507-header-builder-on-mobile-devices

    So you can add different components on mobile header and on the desktop header, you can add one Site&Logo component for Desktop where you have the site title and another for mobile where you don’t, this solves the issues listed. The 2nd Site & Logo component is part of Neve Pro.

    I hope this information is helpful.
