Hi Ken,
Thank you for reporting this issue. I was able to identify the root cause and a fix has been released in version 8.1.71 .
The plugin’s stylesheet contained a .container CSS class and a global * transition rule that were not properly scoped to the widget itself. Since Divi 5.0 also uses .container as a wrapper for its navigation bar, the plugin’s styles were bleeding into the menu — applying a semi-transparent dark background (the gray you saw) and extra padding/margin (the increased height).
All widget CSS selectors are now scoped under the plugin’s own container IDs, so they can no longer affect any theme elements outside the widget.
To resolve the issue, please update the plugin to version 8.1.71 from your WordPress dashboard (Dashboard > Updates, or Plugins > Installed Plugins and click “Update Now” if available). After updating, clear any caching plugins or server-side caches you may be running on the development site, and the menu should return to normal.
Let me know if the issue persists after updating.
Best regards,
Allen
