Our favourite aquatic superhero returns from his sojourn across the galaxy infused with astonishing, hitherto unseen new powers. In his modern incarnation (wearing a rather spiffy cape) Superfish is dedicated to keeping dropdown/flyout menus accessible across browsers great and small, in addition to adding support for newer touch devices (running Android, iOS, Windows, etc). All this and a pretty face.
Please use the existing Superfish documentation where you will find full explanations of the customisable features and plenty of examples to get you started.
###Important notes before you download:
- For your existing Superfish menus, you may prefer to stick with your earlier version unless you are prepared to alter your CSS to hide submenus using display:none rather than off-canvas (eg. top:-999em), otherwise you may lose closing animations (the submenus will be off-canvas while the animation happens). Also, the arrow CSS has changed completely to use pseudo-elements.
- As of Superfish v1.5.1 if you wish to enhance your menu with Brian Cherne's hoverIntent plugin (highly recommended) you will need to use the latest version (r7) which now supports event delegation.
- Follow this link if you need an easy solution to address a hoverIntent conflict with WordPress.

- v1.7: Full code restructure to use best-practice method access. Use
.superfish('show')
and.superfish('hide')
instead of deprecatedshowSuperfishUl()
andhideSuperfishUl()
(which will be removed soon). - v1.7: Added
destroy
method. - v1.7: Replaced
autoArrows
feature with pure CSS arrows for easier customisation and performance (no image http request). - v1.7: Removed
useClick
feature. Should be a separate plugin (feel free to beat me to creating it). See issue #47. - v1.6: Full CSS refactor for easier customisation. Supports unlimited levels of nested submenus.
- v1.6: Supersubs plugin replaced by a couple of lines of CSS. The width of each submenu will be determined by its widest child list item. To disable, just remove the
white-space
rule in the main CSS file. - Full support for touch devices. Android browsers, iOS Safari, IE9 on Windows Phone 7, Windows 8 IE10 with touchscreen. Touch to open submenus, touch again to follow the link. Be sure to include hoverIntent for widest support.
