Hi John,
I always wanted to change the icon configuration to be a select menu instead of a text box but never came around to do so. I'll make sure this gets into the next release. Basically, you can find most of the icons by looking at the styles defined in here
I'm not sure, though, what the issue could be with regards to the unclickable links. Could provide some more details there? Are you referring to 'normal' links in the main menu?
Thanks!

Thanks for the quick reply!
I was able to change the icon to one i found on the list from the link you
sent.
So inside portal i have a set of public pages. (Welcome, About Us, Contact
etc) When i bring up the site and i'm not logged in. The links across the
top work and are clickable. Once i log in, and i'm authenticated, they are
no longer clickable, they just become static text. It's kind of odd?
Also, next to the icon at the top where you had the retro camera, it says
"Liferay" Is there a place to modify that text? I didn't see it on the
config page.
Really appreciate your help! I've been given the project of installing and
configuring our liferay portal but it's all new to me and i've definitely
struggled.

Also, the admin dockbar at the top disappeared after installing the theme.
I think i've read about this being an issue with themes and liferay, have
you ran into that before?

@junnever I sent you an e-mail some days ago. I hope you're okay with me pasting it here as well—in case you haven't received it.
I'm still unsure why you are having trouble with the top navigation. Can you check if this problem also occurs when switching back to the Classic Theme? Or maybe you could inspect the markup with your browser's dev tools (Firebug?). Btw, what browser are you actually using?
The dockbar is hidden by default. There is a small gear icon appearing, though, once you're logged in. If you click this icon, the dockbar should appear on the top of the page.
As for the top heading (next to the icon), this is the Site's name. So, if you would create a new Site, it would show this Site's name up there. The Default Site is called 'Liferay' which is why you see this string appear. If you want to change the Default Site name, you'll have to change the instance name (Control Panel > Configuration > Portal Settings > General).

I've just pushed a new version of the plugin to the Marketplace which should fix the issue with the main navigation (and add a list of all available icons to the settings page).
Please let me know if that resolves the issues you were seeing.
Thank you,

Working much better! Thank you very much :) The boss will be impressed
with how it's looking now! Really like the changes you made.

Glad to hear that. Please make sure to let me know, should you run into other issues or have ideas on how to improve the theme. Thanks again!

Hey Dan,
Quick question about your theme and if i can sneak one random question in
too, that would be awesome!
The gray portion of your theme at the top, is there an easy way to change
the color of that as well? Secondly, i just wanted to say i love how you
can have the top navigation when not logged in and then have it switch to
dashboard / side nav after logged in.
My random question is just a functional type question. I've created some
pages that once you are logged in display along the side nav.. Let's just
say About Us, Contact etc type stuff. One of the pages i'm trying to
create i've called My Dashboard. I want to have that listed as a page in
the navigation with the other pages but just have it load the My Dashboard
page within the site as if you clicked on My Dashboard over on the top menu
where your name is. Do you know if there is an easy way to accomplish this?
Thank you so much for your time!

Hi John,
Good to hear from you!
I could theoretically make the color of the dark gray parts configurable as well (even if some parts of the theme would need to undergo some refactoring). But I have a feeling that people could 'misuse' it to create a very colorful outcome—which isn't an issue per se but it would definitely decrease the recognizability of the theme. So, if I were to implement it, I would probably opt for a set of predefined colors—most likely rather on the darker side (I could imagine some very dark green or yellow, for instance). Do you have some concrete color in mind that you would like to see?
As for the second question, that's actually a very good point. Now that I allow hiding the dockbar, I should maybe also give an option to bring back some of the links that are normally reachable via the dockbar. Outside of the theme itself, I don't think there's a clean way to achieve that since it would involve generating links "dynamically". If this is something that you need urgently, I might be able to get it into the next release.
Thanks,
Daniel

Hi John,
I added a new option that allows you to show shortcuts to a user's personal pages in the main menu (in case you configure the Dockbar to be hidden). Depending on whether there are any public or private pages for the currently logged in user, it will then show links to My Profile and/or My Dashboard.
This change is already part of the recently updated version on the Marketplace. Maybe you could try it out let me know what you think about it.
Thanks,
Daniel

Sorry i'm just getting back to you, i'm loving the progress you've made
with the theme. All of the features are very nice :)
Do you know if there is an easy way to make the site menu not automatically
pop up the submenu for subpages? I've created a page that has subpages and
it would be nicer if the user had to click the page to have the menu that
displays the subpages, it blocks the menu item below it and you have to go
out and around the menu item to reach the item below.
Not sure if that's theme related or liferay related?
Thank you so much though for the theme and I look forward to following
along with your progress :)

Hi John,
Haven't been able to respond yet—sorry for that :(
So, the problem with making the drop down appear on click instead of on hover, is that the top level nav items can be pages themselves. Now, if the click opens the drop down, you wouldn't be able to reach the page behind that top level entry anymore.
That being said, the work around for the mobile variant of the theme is that a new icon appears next the text (an arrow pointing downwards). While clicking the icon will open the drop down, clicking the text will bring you to the actual page.
I would love to come up with a better idea for a menu with many top level pages (something else than just a line wrap). Unfortunately, I haven't been able to think of anything there, yet.
I'm very open for any ideas, though :)
Thanks,
Daniel
