How can I fix the issue with the Webflow menu button requiring two clicks to open after scrolling back up on a page with linked sections? Please refer to the provided video for reference. Thank you.

When a Webflow menu button (hamburger icon) requires two clicks to open after scrolling and selecting anchor links, it's usually caused by interaction conflicts or broken focus states due to smooth scrolling behaviors.

1. Understand the Root Cause

• Clicking a link to a section (e.g. #about) triggers Webflow's built-in smooth scroll.
• After scrolling, if the menu button is opened again, the state of the open/close interaction may be out of sync.
• This is often due to Webflow’s navbar component reverting to "initial state" on scroll or section click.

2. Avoid Linking to Anchors Inside the Menu Without Closing It First

• If your menu links scroll to internal sections without first closing the menu, the state logic becomes inconsistent.
• Ensure that the mobile menu closes automatically when a link is clicked (this restores the toggle state).

3. Add Close Interaction on Each Menu Link

• Select each nav/menu link that points to a section (like #features, #contact, etc.).
• In the Interactions panel, add a trigger:
• On Click → Navbar Close.
• This makes sure the menu closes on link click, syncing the menu state correctly.

4. Check Your Navbar Symbol or Component Settings

• If your navbar is reused as a Symbol, check that it’s not carrying override glitches or duplicated interactions.
• Ensure interactions are not being applied both via the Navbar component and manually via page load or clicks—it can cause state mismatches.

5. Use Webflow's Built-In Navbar Component Properly

• Use the Webflow Navbar element with its built-in functionality to handle the menu toggle state.
• Avoid recreating menu open/close behaviors manually unless necessary.

6. Optional: Add Custom Code to Force Menu Toggle State Reset (Advanced)

• If you need a workaround, you can insert custom code in the Page Settings Footer section:

• Use a small script to listen for clicks on anchor links and force-close the menu:

  • Example logic (do not add raw JS here): On click of any .nav-link, remove .w--open from .navbar and set the mobile menu display to "none".

• Only do this if Interaction triggers don't solve the issue—custom code should be your last resort.

Summary

To fix the double-click issue on your Webflow menu button after scrolling to linked sections, ensure each menu link closes the mobile nav menu on click using Webflow’s interaction tools. This keeps the menu toggle state in sync and prevents the need for double-clicking. If the issue persists, verify your use of Symbols and possibly apply a custom script to force-close the menu.
