@murphybarb this is ready for validation. Main navigation now has 3 levels. Some notes:

  1. A general trend among modern CSS frameworks including Bootstrap 4 is that they don't come with support for multilevel navbars beyond 2 levels. Partially this is because of the priority placed on mobile use. That it is a trend implies that we should be re-thinking Information Architecture and UI. The 3 level tier in the navbar is implemented but I had to build our own 'library' (functionality) for it https://github.com/BCcampus/wp-bootwalker and I fear we may be dating ourselves if we pursue more tiers.

  2. The dropdown menu happens on a 'click' event rather than a 'hover' event which the bccampus.ca site currently employs. This is also due to a 'mobile first' strategy among frameworks. Navigate the main menu for the current bccampus.ca on a phone and try to get to some of the lower level subpages and you'll see why dropdowns on hover events don't work. The consequence of a 'click' event however is that the link to that 'parent' page is changed from a link the content on that page to an anchor link whose only function is to activate the 'dropdown' — knowing this will mean needing to make adjustments to the content of 'parent pages'.

Example: the content on the page 'Lines of Service' can't be accessed by clicking on 'Lines of Service'

Fortunately, on a mobile device, all the 'child' pages can now be accessed.

I'm playing with the menus and will be creating some pages to see what the new architecture will look like based on the site map I did https://bccampus.slickplan.com/ojyakpemc

I'll finish working on this tomorrow (Friday).
