The Menu: Custom mobile navigation with icons

Create beautiful mobile navigation menus with custom icons, role-based visibility, and extensive style options for your WordPress site.

<p>Easily create and customize a gorgeous app-like mobile menu based on Fred Heusschen’s <a href="http://mmenu.frebsite.nl/" rel="nofollow ugc">mmenu.js</a>!</p>
<h4>What is it?</h4>
<p>WP MMenu Lite is based off of <a href="http://frebsite.nl/" rel="nofollow ugc">Fred Heusschen</a>‘s incredibly powerful and beautiful <a href="http://mmenu.frebsite.nl/" rel="nofollow ugc">mmenu.js</a> jQuery plugin.  WP MMenu Lite combines the simplicity of WordPress with the powerful features of mmenu.js to create a Mobile Menu Plugin. It’s easy to setup and use but also gorgeous right out of the box.  WP MMenu Lite uses WordPress’s default menus/locations to keep things familiar for anyone who’s ever built a menu within WordPress.</p>
<h4>How to use it</h4>
<p>After you have installed the plugin…</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p>Create a Menu</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Set the location for that menu to Mobile Menu</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Use the [mmenu][/mmenu] shortcodes to create a link that will open the mmenu</p>
</li>
</ul>
<h4>Using the Shortcode</h4>
<p>Here are two examples of how you can use the shortcode:</p>
<pre><code>[mmenu]example[/mmenu]
</code></pre>
<p>(within your page content)</p>
<p><strong>OR</strong></p>
<pre><code><a href="#mmenu">example</a>
</code></pre>
<p>These do the exact same thing, so if you want to incorporate this plugin into a theme you can do the latter in any template file and it should work.</p>
