Ticket #21072 - Alysum Header Builder improvements suggestions

We are building a header in Alysum theme and there are some improvements that would be useful.

A sample header is in the attachment.

1) Distance between menu items is constant. It occupies to much room and it overlaps with other columns. In this case with column nr. 3.
The distance should be dynamic (depending on how many items there are) and adjustable in theme configuration for more control.
Also the distance is handled poorly, when browser window is resized.
Check the attachment for a good way to solve this.

2) Rounded borders don’t work in header columns. As you can see in the attachment nr. 1, border radius is set, but it’s not reflected in the header.

3) Add more configuration options to Header Items.
- Make search input’s border radius adjustable.
- Size of the cart icon is smaller then the other icons.
- Allow to use only text for individual header items.
- Allow to style individual header items - border, radius, size, etc.
- If there is a dropdown effect for a header item, allow to add a pointer arrow to indicate it.

Check the attachement for more details.

Thanks for your suggestions. We are working to replace outdated Page builder with Elementor module

Any ETA?
One month, one year?

Fred 18 Mar 2021, 14:19

maybe month-two, can’t say exactly. but definitely not a year :)

Since a header is a key element of an e-commerce site, will it be able to build a header from scratch and style it?

All other theme builders for Prestashop have a real problem with that.
Especially those based on Elemnetor.
Some allow only to add a limited number of widgets or modules.
Others not even that.

Here is the screenshot of Header in Elementor builder we currently have https://take.ms/CopxB

We will add similar widgets you have in your Header builder right now

What about the top section of the header?
Will there be an option to delete/edit/design it?

Let’s wait then.
