Not sure if anyone has tried this, and I couldn’t find any resources on YouTube that touches on this subject so I thought I try here.
If any of you have a LinkedIn account, you can try it out. In LinkedIn, their main navigation menu is on top of the page. What I’ve noticed is that when I click on each item of the menu, the menu itself doesn’t reload, only the bottom content section does. See video here: 2022-06-09_19-26-44
I want to replicate this for my app as well and couldn’t figure out how this can be achieved. I don’t believe this can be done by just showing and hiding elements as the URL does change.
Is there like a “frame” concept in Bubble where I can get the menu group to remain but load the other groups as needed?
Do a search on the forum and there’s plenty of threads discussing how to do this. High-level is you use URL parameters or a plugin like Sudsy to change the URL and then you have things hide/show on the page based on the URL. Everything lives on one big page vs. split up across many pages.
This means the page doesn’t have to reload and therefore you can configure things like menus to just be static and always showing
There are pros/cons of going down this route. So I’d have a read of what people have been saying and consider your own use case to whether this is right for your app.
