Bugfix Pull Request

Linked issues

BugHerd tasks #268 (mega menus), #269 (header width) and #270 (blog hero gap) on the LightSpeedWP.Agency project. No Linear issue. A request to hide the Pricing menu until launch is also included; it has no BugHerd task.

Summary

Four header and hero issues on the staging site, fixed together because three of them sit in the header and the fourth is the spacing directly beneath it.

Mega menus open from the same point (#268)

On desktop, Work and Solutions opened about 100px further right than About, Insights and Services, and none opened at the screen centre. The Ollie mega-menu plugin positions a panel against the navigation list (which sits off-centre between the logo and the buttons) and only centres items that carry its menu-justified-center option, which Work and Solutions lack.

• src/scss/structural/_mega-menu.scss: at 1024px and up, the navigation wrappers are made static so every panel resolves against the header, and the plugin's own centred offset is applied to all of them. The plugin sets each panel's top inline, so the vertical gap is restored with a margin. animations.css is rebuilt.
• The mobile menu uses accordions, not panels, so it needed no mega menu change.

Header lines up with the content (#269)

The logo and the "Start a project" button stayed 64px from the screen edges on wide screens while the content stops at the wide size.

• patterns/header.php: the header row is wide-aligned inside a constrained header, with the same side padding as the page sections (spacing 30), so it matches the content at every width.

Blog hero gaps (#270)

• patterns/hero/blog-hero.php, patterns/sections/blog-all-articles.php, patterns/sections/blog-engagement.php: margin-top: 0 on the hero and the two bands after it, as the other hero patterns do, which removes the 20px root block gaps between them. The Writing CTA card is unchanged.
• patterns/hero/blog-hero.php: the hero's top padding goes from spacing 80 to spacing 40, so the breadcrumb sits 26px below the header instead of 48px. This is a trial of the value before the same change is batched across the other heroes.

Pricing hidden until launch

• inc/header.php: a render_block filter drops the Pricing mega menu from the header navigation. The item lives in the database navigation post, so a filter avoids a manual edit on every site.
• parts/mobile-menu.html: the Pricing accordion is removed.
• The pricing-mega-menu template part, its theme.json registration and the pricing pages are untouched. Delete ls_theme_hide_pricing_mega_menu() and restore the accordion to bring the menu back.

Investigated, not changed

• The footer's "Pricing" column heading and the /pricing/ links in other patterns are left as they are, since only the header and mobile menu were in scope.
• Accessibility findings that already exist on DEV and are not caused by this change: with the mobile menu open, axe reports nested-interactive (a link inside each accordion <summary>) and target-size (links 14px high, WCAG 2.5.8 needs 24px); the homepage has no <main> landmark.

Scope and exclusions

• Only the four items above. No new tokens, no block or section styles, no plugin changes.
• Review size: 9 files, 84 added and 43 removed lines, excluding the compiled assets/css/animations.css (generated output, 1 line).
• Deploy note: saved copies in the database override theme files. After deploy, the DEV Header part may need clearing in the Site Editor, and DEV's saved "Blog Home" template (the posts page) holds the old blog layout without the margin fix. Clearing "Blog Home" would fall back to the plain post list because the theme has no home.html, so it needs a decision before it is reset.

Screenshots/video

None attached. The measurements below are from the local site, and the header, mega menu and blog hero changes are visible on / and /blog/.

Accessibility notes

• Keyboard (local): Tab order through the header is logical with a visible focus ring on every stop; Enter and Space open a mega menu, aria-expanded updates, Tab enters the panel and Escape closes it and returns focus to the button; the mobile menu traps focus and Escape returns focus to the hamburger.
• Accessibility tree: the header is a banner with a "Main Navigation" landmark, the logo is announced as "LightSpeed home", and the open menu reads as expanded with proper headings and links.

Test plan

• npm run schema:validate, npm run lint:json and php -l on the five edited PHP files pass
• npm run build:css exits 0 and leaves no diff after the committed rebuild
• npm run lint:scss reports the same 1 error and 14 warnings as develop
• Local site with the saved Header and Blog Archive copies cleared (so the theme files render): all five mega menu panels centre at the screen centre at 1024, 1280, 1440 and 1920px, and the mouse can travel from an item into its panel without it closing
• Local: header edges match the content edges at 1024, 1280, 1440, 1920 and 2560px
• Local: Pricing is gone from the desktop navigation and from the mobile menu, and the other accordions still open
• Local /blog/: no gap under the header or between the hero, All Articles and Engagement; the header-to-breadcrumb gap is 26px at 1920, 1440, 768 and 390px
• Keyboard checks on the header, mega menus and mobile menu as described above
• Playwright standing specs (accessibility, network-errors, runtime-errors, responsive-overflow) pass on local / in chromium and Mobile Chrome; on /blog/ accessibility, network-errors and runtime-errors pass and responsive-overflow fails on the Writing CTA button at 320px, which fails identically on develop
• Screen reader pass (VoiceOver or NVDA) on the header and menus
• After deploy to DEV: reset the saved Header part and decide how to reset "Blog Home", then re-check the header, mega menus and blog hero there
• Block editor: header and blog hero patterns look right in the Site Editor
• CodeRabbit review

Walkthrough

The pull request adjusts header and desktop mega-menu positioning, removes Pricing from desktop and mobile navigation, and changes spacing in the blog hero and two blog sections. Logo images now use a 419:90 aspect ratio instead of fixed dimensions.

Full details: Title check

Explanation

The title names the header alignment, mega-menu centring, Pricing removal, and blog hero tightening, which are all changes in the changeset. It also lists the BugHerd issue numbers. The title is long (129 characters, 21 words) and lists four changes. It still covers the main changes and is not misleading, so it passes. The title uses 'centre' while the code and changelog use the American spelling 'center'. This does not affect the check result.

Remove Pricing from the mobile-menu test expectations.

npm run test:mobile runs tests/specs/mobile-menu.spec.ts in the Mobile Chrome, Mobile Safari, and Tablet projects. That spec still generates three Pricing tests, but parts/mobile-menu.html contains no Pricing accordion. The Pricing tests can therefore fail while locating or expanding the missing element. Remove Pricing from ACCORDIONS; do not restore it in production markup.

Suggested fix

-const ACCORDIONS = ['Work', 'Solutions', 'Services', 'Pricing', 'Insights', 'About'];
+const ACCORDIONS = ['Work', 'Solutions', 'Services', 'Insights', 'About'];

Remove Pricing from the ACCORDIONS list used by the mobile-menu tests so the
spec no longer generates tests for an accordion absent from the markup. Keep the
production markup unchanged.
