Hello!
I am checking the Docker extension and I have a few basic questions:

The bar include functionality to all the extensions? (Easyblog, Easydiscuss, EasySocial...)
Can I add to the bar an icon for a popup menu? (Thinking to use the Offlajn Vertical Menu)
Will be possible add a menu in the bar in the future?

Thanks in advance!
Hello Emilio,

Currently the bar only supports EasySocial but we will be adding more to the bar. If you want to add a new icon to the dropdown, you could always modify the theme file and include your own link

If there are enough demands for adding a menu from your Joomla menu into the docker, we'll consider that. The only issue is that the more you add stuffs in the module, the more cluttered it gets since the height and width of the bar has a constraint that is dependent on your screen resolution.

Yes, you are right. The key is clean an minimalist design. Just thinking to add the "burger" menu icon to open new menu in the side.
Thank you very much for your super fast answer.
I am a little bit crazy checking how to make the puzzle of ES + ED + EB + Komento + Jreviews in the same page, make it simple with nice clean design and useful. Elegant template is helping me a lot on this.

I will keep and eye in docker. ;-)
Thanks!

Hello Emilio,

I think you would want to separate these extensions rather than having everything show up on the same page. Too much information for your user's to diget

Do you mean in different webpage?
The web is a page about Hong Kong for Spanish speakers. I planned to use the extensions for this:

EasyDiscuss:
- Forum to make a meting point for people want to visit Hong Kong and to interchange info, advices and classifieds for the expatriates living here already. I think I can create a support section for the subscribers to the listings.

JReviews:
- For directory functions. The main part will be a City Guide with the best places to visit in Hong Kong. This will have a Restaurants and Hotels too to monetize this part. (Paid Lists)

EasyBlog:
- For news about Hong Kong, Featured articles of the listed products. (Restaurants, hotels...) The front page will include the last and featured news and listings.

EasySocial:
- To add Social features. This is the extension that I was less sure to include, but finally I thought could be a good nexus to the rest.

Do you think is too much?
Any advice?

Hello Emilio,

Oh, it is fine if you are going to create separate menu items for these pages but I was under the impression that you want to load everything on a single page request. That would be too heavy for anyone to browse the site :|

I am also intending on using Offlajn Vertical Menu as a way to make avilable a separate menu item for these pages. How is this best accomplished? @Emilio, have you done this?

Hi @Eileen
I m on the way, but my tests has been very nice by the moment. I can implement the vertical menu with all the info and loads fast. Works perfect both in mobile and not mobile environments.

The page is just a testing, but you can check in http://www.hongkongframed.com to see how looks.
