I am an independent WordPress web consultant with 10 years of experience in WordPress theme installation, customization, administration, maintenance, support, documentation, troubleshooting and PSD/design to WP.
Looks good to me. Only issue I see is you should be using .menu-item.has-children as the CSS class, not .has-children
I’ve been using this very successfully on a Dynamik/Genesis theme. However, every now and then the backslash before e760 and e762 disappears from my custom CSS file and I have to add them back in manually. Any idea what might be causing this and, if so, whether there’s a way around it?
Try to not use a plugin like ‘WP Editor’ (if present) or directly editing at Appearance -> Editor. Use a good editor like Sublime Text by directly opening the file on server using a FTP client.
I’ve just tested this in Metro Pro and can see the arrows just fine in Firefox and Chrome. Can you provide the URL of your site where the problem can be seen?
Note: Also, it is no longer needed to use Bill Erickson’s plugin as the “menu-item-has-children” class is automatically added by WordPress since 3.8 (if I am not mistaken).
1. Download the file, extracted it and uploaded the fonts folder to my childs theme.
2. Copied and pasted the css code to my style.css
3. Updloaded the php plugin file and activated.
4. Tried with and without the plugin but I am still getting the squares.
Hi Sridar, I don’t know if the following question is related, but I will try it here since I’m not able to find an answer during an extensive search. Is it possible to add to my navigation bar a dropdown element that *automatically* displays (with hierarchy) all the members of a custom taxonomy?
For example, I have custom taxonomy ‘places’ with the following two-level hierarchy.
– India
— Mumbai
— Delhi
– Thailand
— Bangkok
— Phuket
I’m attempting to modify the Magazine Pro Genesis child theme.
This works great, but in my parallax pro when I am in mobile the sub menus disappear. Do you know how to fix this issue? They do not show up on mobile and even the main header for that specific sub menu disappears…

aah, the perils of copy pasting!
I’ve corrected the CSS.
I would like to know , how to use any fontello icons on genesis child theme.
Where do you want to use them? Ex.: To the left of widget titles
Good job Sridhar! Visit my website and see the result http://bestbitcoin.com.br

Sadly it only works for me on IE. In Chrome and Firefox it shows a square instead of the arrows.
I also saw your post at http://www.studiopress.com/forums/topic/failed-to-add-sub-menu-indicators-to-nav-menu-items/.

Thanks so much, Sridhar. The first two links look like what I need.
The arrows are appearing below instead of next to the link/button. Any ideas? Thanks!
