    Why can't you use your logo in the navbar? I bought this theme before I saw you can't. this wont make my client happy.

        Hello @srbarnard. Our theme is created in accordance with Material Design standards - look at any of the Google websites, you'll notice that in all of them logo is used only in the Sidenav. In the Navbar you can add the name of the client's company (look at Site Identity in the Customizer, where you can set the Site title). If you want to have a logo in the top left corner, I highly recommend you to use Sidenav.

    @Michał Google's home for Material Design material.io places the Material Design logo in the navbar. It seems previous objection to a logo in navbar is not current with Google's practice today. Any chance the ability to add logo to navbar might make its way to theme?

        @Scottie We do add recently the option to place a logo in the Horizontal Menu (former Navbar). However we're now implementing this feature, so the documentation does not include annotation about this yet. However, it will be added soon.
