# Navbar Consistency Verification

## ✅ Navbar Structure - Identical Across All Pages

All pages now have the **exact same navbar structure** with consistent positioning:

### Layout Structure

```
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│  LOGO + NAME    │    CENTERED MENU    │   WISHLIST + CART   │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
```

### HTML Structure (Identical on All Pages)

```html
<nav class="modern-navbar">
  <div class="navbar-wrapper">
    <!-- LEFT: Logo -->
    <div class="navbar-brand">
      <a href="/home" class="brand-link">
        <img src="/uploads/cat-logo-only-1766962993568-201212396.png" 
             alt="Sky Art Shop Logo" 
             class="brand-logo" />
        <span class="brand-name">Sky' Art Shop</span>
      </a>
    </div>

    <!-- CENTER: Navigation Menu -->
    <div class="navbar-menu">
      <ul class="nav-menu-list">
        <li><a href="/home">Home</a></li>
        <li><a href="/shop">Shop</a></li>
        <li><a href="/portfolio">Portfolio</a></li>
        <li><a href="/about">About</a></li>
        <li><a href="/blog">Blog</a></li>
        <li><a href="/contact">Contact</a></li>
      </ul>
    </div>

    <!-- RIGHT: Wishlist & Cart -->
    <div class="navbar-actions">
      <button id="wishlistToggle">
        <i class="bi bi-heart"></i>
        <span class="action-badge">0</span>
      </button>
      <button id="cartToggle">
        <i class="bi bi-cart3"></i>
        <span class="action-badge">0</span>
      </button>
    </div>
  </div>
</nav>
```

### CSS Positioning (navbar.css)

```css
.navbar-wrapper {
  display: flex;
  align-items: center;
  justify-content: space-between;  /* Spreads items evenly */
  height: 72px;
}

.navbar-brand {
  flex-shrink: 0;  /* Fixed width on left */
}

.navbar-menu {
  flex: 1;  /* Takes remaining space */
  display: flex;
  justify-content: center;  /* Centers menu items */
  padding: 0 32px;
}

.navbar-actions {
  flex-shrink: 0;  /* Fixed width on right */
  display: flex;
  gap: 12px;
}

### If You See Different Positions

1. **Clear Browser Cache**:

   - Or use Ctrl+F5 for hard refresh

2. **Check Browser Console**:
   - Press F12
   - Look for any CSS loading errors
   - Check if navbar.css loaded correctly

3. **Verify CSS Priority**:
