Wp responsive menu problem with generate press

Hi there,

suddenly my responsive menu has stopped working and the developer is telling me that it’s due to generate press.

That's what developer says when they don't know the cause - it wouldn't "suddenly" happen if it's due to GeneratePress.

I would recommend disabling all plugins except GP Premium and WP Responsive Menu to eliminate any conflicts first.

sorry I should have been more specific. When I updated generate press, it caused the responsive menu to stop working.

I did try what you suggested and it made no difference. can you please take a look?

The latest theme update only deals with very minor CSS changes in the front end and shouldn't caise any issues like this:
https://generatepress.com/generatepress-2-4-2/

I'm seeing a js error in the console which might be causing the issue:

thank you, can you tell me how to fix this?

Can you disable all plugins except GP Premium and let me check if the issue still exist?

okay doing now

okay all deactivated except GP premium and word fence security. Now I'm just getting a black screen

Hi there,

it looks like you have a plugin for your mobile menu - WP Responsive Menu?
I assume in its settings or in Appearance > Menus you can choose what menu to assign to it - as currently it looks like it has none.

you are right David, it wasnt chosen but still makes no difference. I chose "menu 1" but it still doesnt work. If you click on the 3 bars at top left and then the X, the menu appears for a second and then disappears.

I just deactivated all plugins again except for GP premium and word fence security as Leo suggested. please advise

I assume you also deactivated the WP Menu plugin as i cannot see any mobile menu now ?

BTW - in case you need a menu asap - the GP Menu is being hidden by this CSS in Customizer > Additional CSS:

@media (max-width: 768px) {
    .main-navigation {
        display: none;
    }
}

yes David, I deactivated the WP responsive menu because Leo asked me to. Please tell me how you would like me to proceed.

I just activated the WP responsive menu again.

I'm assuming that I chose that plug-in because generate press was not able to achieve what I wanted in a responsive menu, but it was a long time ago so there must of been a good reason for why I chose that plug-in.

if generate press can create a responsive menu by itself, then I wouldn't need the plug-in, but it appears that it's not possible for you to give me a menu that is located on the upper left above the logo.

here is all the custom CSS I have been using for about a year or longer, so that it includes the slider and the top left menu:

.home .site {
    display: none;
}
@media (max-width: 768px) {
    .main-navigation {
        display: none;
    }
}

Hi there,

The mobile menu plugin you're using is covering the menu with its overlay.

You can fix it with this CSS:

html body .wprm-overlay.active {
    z-index: unset;
}

ul#wprmenu_menu_ul {
    position: relative;
    z-index: 999;
}

thank you Tom it worked.
