Dara dropdown menu not working on mobile

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hi, I am having trouble with the dropdown menu options on the Dara theme. It works perfectly on the desktop version but on mobile, my dropdowns just become part of a long list.

    Any help would be much appreciated!

  • Hey there @wigginnate , welcome to the forums! I see what you mean; on my phone, I see a list of all of the links, with some of them indented to indicate they were “under” a main menu item.

    I believe that’s by design, because phones don’t really have a cursor one can use for hovering over a menu item. I can only tap with my phone. Tapping to open sub-menus could be ambiguous: would it send me to the page I tapped, or open another menu? How would I get out of that menu if I picked the wrong item? So the mobile menu becomes a list just to reduce confusion.

    What are your thoughts on that? If you definitely need the menu dropdowns to work on mobile, it’s probably possible with some plugin that you could install with the Business Plan.

    As another option, if you’d like, you could hide the child menu items on mobile. You’d just want to be sure to provide another way to access those links. That might be a good option if your main concern is with the menu taking up too much of the mobile screen.

    If you’ll share what you have in mind, we can advise. Cheers!
