# Mobile menu not functioning

 * Here is a link to the page: [http://bayroad.ddns.net/liamroberts_wordpress/](http://bayroad.ddns.net/liamroberts_wordpress/)
 * The menu functions properly in desktop mode. However, on mobile (and if I trigger
   the responsive menu by decreasing the window size on desktop) the navigation 
   menu does not work; i.e. clicking on it does nothing.
 * I only just installed this theme; the only changes I have made thus far are the
   header logo, menu items, and disabling the footer.
 * Thanks,
    Fred

 * Hello,
 * I can see that you’ve added a child theme and it makes it difficult for me to
   locate where the error is, also you’ve copied all the text from the main stylesheet
   into the child themes stylesheet, which makes it a challenge for me to locate
   what you’ve changed and what not.
 * [Possibly try to read the WordPress Codex on Child Themes](https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes)
 * If that is not the issue, try turning off a plugin at a time, to test if one 
   of the plugins is the source of the issue, if else, feel free to write back here.
 * Kind regards,
    Simon

 * I am new to using child themes, I just found it easier to be able to see the 
   whole stylesheet when making my changes (rather than jumping back and forth between
   the empty child sheet and the original).
 * I just disabled the child theme, and now the menu works with the vanilla Voltata.
   I will add only what I want to change in the stylesheet, so that it is easier
   for you to see issues.
 * *Edit: I added elements back in to figure out what the culprit is. Turns out,
   it’s my modifications to page.php. When I remove the following code:
 * <?php get_sidebar(); ?>
    <?php get_footer(); ?>
 * The menu no longer works. I just don’t want the dark bar across the bottom…perhaps
   a workaround is to change the color of the footer to match the white background?

 * Hello,
 * If all you wish to do is to remove the footer, put back the get_footer and get_sidebar
   functions and try adding this custom css via the [Simple Custom CSS](https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-custom-css/)
   plugin.
 *     ```
       footer#footer{
         display:none;
       }
       ```
   
 * Kind regards,
 * Simon
