Hi Udi,

Kindly find my response for your inquiries below:
1. The menu need to click to open and we need to remain it always open.. can we do it ?

Correct me if I'm wrong, do you mean that you need the menu shown http://take.ms/uGXVX always open? Not sure how user can access the links under the menu if it is always show.

2. Can we change its visual display ( colors and Icons ) ?

You can change the icon in the elegant toolbar in the file:
.../components/com_easysocial/themes/elegant/toolbar/default.php
For changing toolbar color for this elegant theme you need to make custom css to override the color.
You can apply the custom css similar as show:
[gist type="php"]
#es .es-navbar {
background: #ae5f5f;
}
#es .es-navbar__search {
background-color: #ae5f5f;
}
#es .es-navbar__search-input {
background-color: #905757;
}

#es .es-nav > li > a:hover {
background: #8885ab;
color: #cccccc !important;
}

#es .es-nav-dropdown{
background: #ae5f5f;

}

#es .es-nav-dropdown-toggle:after {
border-bottom-color: #ae5f5f;
}
#es .dropdown-menu{
border: 1px solid #ae5f5f;
}
#es .es-nav.pull-right > li {
border: 1px solid #905757
}
[/gist]
You need to altet the color according to your preferences

You are suggest to backup the file that you want to customize just for precaution step

3. Can we disable the application button ?

Yes, you can disable the settings>general>disable applications http://take.ms/HZ6fP

4.Do you have another recommended button menu as you have in the mobile menu ?

Sorry Udi, can you explain more detail on this, do you mean you want to display the menu same as mobile view?
