Is there an issue with the interaction of the menu in Webflow that is causing the buttons/links on the main body to stop working after the hamburger menu is opened and closed?

TL;DR

It is unlikely that there is a pre-existing issue with the interaction of the menu in Webflow causing buttons/links on the main body to stop working after opening and closing the hamburger menu. Webflow's interactions feature is reliable and designed to work seamlessly with all elements on your website.

However, there are several potential reasons why buttons/links may appear to stop working after interacting with the hamburger menu. Here are a few possibilities to consider:

1. Overlay Issue: If the hamburger menu is implemented as an overlay, there might be an issue with the overlay not properly closing after it is opened. This could result in the overlay layer covering the buttons/links, preventing interactions.

2. Z-Index Conflict: Check if the elements inside the hamburger menu have a higher z-index value than the buttons/links in the main body. If the hamburger menu elements have a higher z-index, they may be overlapping and blocking the buttons/links.

3. Interaction Conflicts: It's possible that the interactions applied to the hamburger menu are conflicting with the interactions on the buttons/links in the main body. For example, if you have a button with a hover interaction and the hamburger menu has a click interaction, they may interfere with each other.

4. JavaScript Errors: If you have custom JavaScript code on your Webflow site, it's important to ensure that there are no errors or conflicts occurring in the console. JavaScript errors can cause unexpected behavior, including issues with interactions and button/link functionality.

To troubleshoot the issue, you can follow these steps:

1. Check the overlay settings for the hamburger menu and make sure it is properly closing after opening.
2. Review the z-index values of the hamburger menu and the main body elements, ensuring that they are appropriately set.
3. Temporarily remove any interactions from the hamburger menu and test if the issue still persists. If it does, the problem may lie elsewhere.
4. Review the console for any JavaScript errors and address them accordingly.

If you've tried these steps and the issue still persists, it may be helpful to provide more specific details or share your Webflow project with the Webflow community or support team for further assistance.
