Hello. I have just purchased the Overlay object, hoping that would solve my issue of having too many sublevels in the hamburger menu. When doing a preview of the mobile site with Overlay object, only five menu items appear, instead of the ten which I have. Any suggestions on how to get all of them to show?

I had the same idea, especialy on small viewports the menu is not easy to follow.
If you use a level you need to set a link in it else it won't show, i realy hope Incomedia wants to do something about that.

Hi Andre, I was able to do that for one of the levels, because it only had two pages. I created a hidden page with the titles and linked each one to a page. That showed up nicely on the Overlay menu. But the other sublevels (sometimes four or five) and each of those sublevels have pages -- like up to 30. And it seems like an enormous amount of work to do this for each of the other four levels. So maybe I wasted the credits. As an alternative - how can I modify the regular hamburger menu so that the sublevels show up to the left of the main menu, instead of underneath the main menu. In the photo below, I have selected the "Exhibits & Events" menu and as you can see, there are many sublevels shown, which will be difficult for user to navigate. Can you suggest a way for me to make this more user-friendly?
Mine works fine and it's simple enought to use it: http://versione2019.altervista.org/Overlay-original/
I wish i could, i need it myself also, i have made the effort to make for every level a hidden page. as hidden page and make it look like the menu of the overlay menu with links, this works but it looks awful in desktop view, so i quited this solution also, i also don't know.
I am following the other topic where italian users are trying to get the overlay menu to work better, i hope they can come up with something or we have to wait for incomedia.
This is becomming a major issue for a lot of users because i see one after the other complaining about the menu ispecialy if you have a lot and in small viewports.

So there is no setting within the Hamburger menu to make the levels show up on the left of the menu instead of beneath the menu? Just so I don't spin my wheels trying to make it happen ....
No they always open below, sorry.
Fabio did a great effort with other users to make the menu better.
I realy think Incomedia should have another look to make it work like the normal menu does all the way so all users can benefit.
@ Fabio,
you did a great job to get this working with several others users, realy great thanks!
I have made a workarond, but will take a look later and implement and test.
Is is it possible to make 1 step by step usage? The whole topic is very hard to follow with all changes and then it is in English also that makes it for a lot of users not easyer.
I will give it a go as soon i have time to test.
Again thank you very much for all the effort in this!!
Andre I did my work all alone, nobody helped me; another user, Luca E., did another menu overlay in php by himself in a different way, not starting like me from the Incomedia's object.
Now i did a new also starting from the standard menu object; as you can see here: http://versione2019.altervista.org/My_Overlay_menu/index.html
this will work normally on desktop (menu on sidebar), and overlay on mobile under 640px.
I will explain in english how to for both in my Topic: https://helpcenter.websitex5.com/es/post/238356
ah ok, that explanes a lot (italian even translated is difficult to follow)
