Note If you have activated mobile view for your blog then you
must first disable it by going to:
- Blogger
> Template
- click
the gear icon
- Select No.
Show desktop template on mobile devices.
- Save
Add a Responsive
Menu To Blogger
|
- Go
To blogger > Template
- Backup
your template
- Click
Edit HTML
- Search
for these lines or similar. These lines of code exist at the top section
of your template
<b:if cond='data:blog.isMobile'>
<meta content='width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0, user-scalable=0' name='viewport'/>
<b:else/>
<meta content='width=1100' name='viewport'/>
</b:if>
Replace all the above code with our custom Meta ViewPort code:
<meta content='width=device-width, initial-scale=1, maximum-scale=1' name='viewport'/>
<meta content='text/html; charset=UTF-8' http-equiv='Content-Type'/>
I have also included a UTF-8 character set for using some Special characters instead of images.
5. Now Search for </b:skin>. Click the black arrow to expand the code.
6. Paste the following Styles just above </b:skin>

}
Customization:
- To change the menu background edit:#50B7DC

7. Now search for <body> Just below it paste the follow code which will create the menu structure:
<nav id='menu'>
<input type='
checkbox'/>
<label>≡<span>
My Blogger Tricks</span></label>
<ul>
<li><a href='/'>Home</a></li>
<li><a href='#'>About</a></li>
<li><a href='#'>Drop Down <font size='1'>▼</font></a>
<ul class='menus'>
<li><a href='#'>Tab 1</a></li>
<li><a href='#'>Tab 2</a></li>
<li><a href='#'>Tab 3</a></li>
<li><a href='#'>Tab 4</a></li>
<li><a href='#'>Tab 5</a></li>
<li><a href='#'>Tab 6</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><a href='#'>Contact</a></li>
<li><a href='#'>Drop Down <font size='1'>▼</font></a>
<ul class='menus'>
<li><a href='#'>Tab 1</a></li>
<li><a href='#'>Tab 2</a></li>
<li><a href='#'>Tab 3</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><a href='#'>Advertise</a></li>
</ul>
</nav>
Customization:
- Replace the text My Blogger Tricks with your blog title.
- To add spaces between words use the unicode  
- I am sure you know how to create new tabs but to create a tab for a drop down list use the following format:
Paste the following code below <ul> or above </ul> to create a drop down list:
<li><a href='#'>Drop Down <font size='1'>▼</font></a>
<ul class='menus'>
<li><a href='#'>Tab 1</a></li>
<li><a href='#'>Tab 2</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
The above menu will create only one drop down list and not multi-level drop down lists because it makes no sense to complicate the design layout for mobile devices. Keeping it simple is best.
8. finally save your template and you are all done!
