Missing primary navigation on frontpage on desktop
9 replies · Started by Carsten on September 23, 2021
Hi there, I have created a new topic about my missing primary navigation on frontpage on desktop only.
Since the issue is still there, it can hardly be a cache issue.
The issue has something to do with my child theme, but all custom codes in my functions.php and elements have been checked and deactivated.
I have ran out of ideas what is causing this, so I'll appreciate if you would take a second look.
Regards
Carsten
Hi there,
So the issue doesn't exist when you activate the parent theme without any custom functions?
That's what I thought, until now.
I just activated the parent theme and GP Premium, and the issue is still there.
I thought in the previous post we got it to work.
It's just not possible for the theme to cause the issue only "sometimes".
Currently, the entire <header> of your site is removed and there are only two options in GP that can do this:
1. Using the disable element metabox:

2. Using the disable element in a layout element:

Hi there, at the moment, GP Premium is deactivated, so it can hardly be a layout element causing it.
Also, why is it only on the frontpage and if it was an element it would affect mobile as well?
Thanks

I just hard-cleared my browser cache and can see the navigaiton now:

I still think you have some caching issues on your site.
Maybe it's due to the weird loading circle thing?

Hi there, I deactivated the PWA loader which supposed only to display on mobile, but it display on desktop, not on mobile..
I reactivated GP Premium, and changed to my child theme. I cleared my Chrome browser, but I still do not see any navigation.

I'm still seeing the loading circle on the desktop.

So did you check the two things I mentioned here?

You can simply disable the elements and disable elements modules to check.
I feel like we are running around in a circle here. This cannot be a bug from the theme.
You will need to go through the debugging steps properly (deactivate and reactivate each functions/plugins) to be able to determine the issue.
Hi there, you were right, the Primary Navigation was turned off in the Page Layout settings.
I had forgotten all about these settings, sorry for the inconvenience.
Thanks!
No problem :)
