Looking good. Regarding the sub categories, which indeed can be helpful, if you open the "3-bar" menu, you get the drop down major categories--Parts, Gear, Garage Sale, etc. By clicking the "+" sign next to a main category, you get subcategories--eg, under Parts, you get Bottom Brackets, Brakes, Cassettes, Etc. If you click on brakes, you get the whole shebang, blended together--calipers, levers, pads, cables--all intermingled with willy and nilly. BUT, if you click directly on the word "Parts" instead of the "+", you get taken to the Catalog, which breaks down brakes into: Brake types, brake hardware, etc. (The catalog also appears to the right of the drop down main, but is cut off, at least on my laptop.) Would there be a way for that click on Parts to bring you to exclusively that "catalog style" menu JUST for parts?
Two sections that could use a further "+" or submenu IMO would be brakes and handlebars. It's not an easy task to develop a logical taxonomy for web site navigation. Multiple pathways and redundancies are good, but can sometimes be confusing when different pathways use different nomenclature, or when it's not clear where exactly you are. The ultimate is to have a visitor who finds what they are seeking in two or three easy no-brainer clicks. I imagine some further refinement and tweaking could be a benefit. Meanwhile, totally useable as is. On Thursday, February 11, 2021 at 11:56:21 PM UTC-5 Dave wrote: > Hi Everyone, > > Just a heads-up that we launched a new theme today for the rivbike.com > webstore.
