[Support request] Header Menu not showing

[Moises]

Hi guys,

I’m having an issue with the header menu not appearing on my posts page.

I’ve created a header with the plugin with Elementor Header & Footer Builder as i want to create an elementor header for the blogs/posts page. However, the navigation menu doesnt appear. Image below.

Hi Moises,

Any chance you can set up a staging site? So we can check the page and figure out why it’s not displaying on your site.

Let us know. 😀

Hi Elvin,

I have set up the staging, however i now face another issue, the header appears on the blog post, but the layout of the blog is all weird.

Any idea as to why this is happening?

Hi Elvin,

All done 🙂

[Elvin]

Thanks.

Do you have a Header Element set to “Merge” on Appearance > Elements? Can you try removing it and see if the header + content layout improves?

[Moises]

Hi Elvin,

That seems to have worked. The blog titles are now not showing, even though ‘content title’ is unchecked under ‘Disabled Elements’.

Is there a way to get the title to show?

*Nevermind, that’s sorted now :)*

There’s just one more thing i can’t quite figure out, is there a way to increase the spacing at the bottom and top of the blog content (eg. above content title)? https://staging3.dbc2.com.au/2021/07/29/rycos-summer-content-heats-up/

Thank you in advance.

Normally, you can add in more padding on Appearance > customize > Layout > Container.

But if you’re using a Layout element that sets the page to “full width (no padding), we’ll have to add it manually through custom CSS.

Try adding this on Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS:

div#content {
    padding: 30px 0;
}

This adds padding to the top and bottom of the content.

Hi Elvin,

When I add that in, the homepage changes and a white bar appears on the top? I have left it on there just so you can have a look.

Kind Regards,

Hi there,

remove Elvins CSS.

And you have the Content Container set to Contained on your single posts – this removes the themes padding, as you will notice on small screens your post content is touching the sides of the screen. You need to set the Content Container to Default to preserve its padding.

Hi David,

I have updated this, however under layout > containter, the content padding still isn’t being recognized

[David]

So i am a little confused…. ( doesn’t take much to do that lol ).

I see there is an Elementor Single Post template class in the body of the single post, and that the layout has been set to Full Width. Then there is an empty left and right sidebar on those posts, presumably there to narrow the content (?).

So questions are:

1. Is the Elementor single post template required?
2. Are the sidebars on place just to contain the content or will they be filled with something later?
