Title: the navigation toggle menu button does not work on localhost Last modified: November 6, 2022 --- # the navigation toggle menu button does not work on localhost * Anonymous User * (@anonymized-15054309) * [3 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/the-navigation-toggle-menu-button-does-not-work-on-localhost/) * Hello, I realized that on localhost (XAMPP 8.1.6 for Windows), the navigation toggle menu button does not work. At the same time, this button works fine production testing website. I disabled all plugins and saw that the button works. And then activated the Gutenberg plugin and found out that the button does not work so I believe there’s an issue with this plugin. I use WordPress version 6.1 and Gutenburg version 14.4.0 (the latest versions now) with both 2023 and 2022 themes. I hope someone can help.

One of these websites is on my local computer and one is in a folder on my hosting online where I installed WordPress on it for testing purposes. I use the latest version of the theme, WordPress, and Gutenberg till now (the time I am writing this post) for both of them. * I used developer tools to debug. It seems that the toggle menu button on the local host lack one event listener that is responsible to open the modal. Look at these images from local and production websites: Production: [https://i.ibb.co/jTmLtBs/toggle-menu-issue-1-production.jpg](https://i.ibb.co/jTmLtBs/toggle-menu-issue-1-production.jpg) Local: [https://i.ibb.co/KsK8cJC/toggle-menu-issue-1-localhost.jpg](https://i.ibb.co/KsK8cJC/toggle-menu-issue-1-localhost.jpg) I underlined the event listener in red on the production website image. * [JuanMa Garrido](https://wordpress.org/support/users/juanmaguitar/) * (@juanmaguitar) * [3 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/the-navigation-toggle-menu-button-does-not-work-on-localhost/#post-16233466) * Hi @mohammad177 * Which browser and version are you using for this test?

Chrome v107 – Theme: Twenty Twenty Three * I don’t use Windows so I cannot reproduce this bug in my machine (I let the testing instructions just in case any other member of the community can reproduce it and provide more insights about this issue) * There’s a suite of tests that are launched automatically for the [navigation block](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/tree/trunk/packages/block-library/src/navigation). If there’s no test for this button (to check that clicking this button produces the expected output, for example), an [issue](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues) should be created to request the inclusion of this test. * > There’s an [open issue to improve the tests for the Navigation block](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/44920). > Feel free to add a comment to this issue to request a specific test for this > expected behavior of this component or to create a new issue and reference > this one (like [this one](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/45204) > did) - This reply was modified 3 years, 6 months ago by [JuanMa Garrido](https://wordpress.org/support/users/juanmaguitar/). - This reply was modified 3 years, 6 months ago by [JuanMa Garrido](https://wordpress.org/support/users/juanmaguitar/). - This reply was modified 3 years, 6 months ago by [JuanMa Garrido](https://wordpress.org/support/users/juanmaguitar/). - This reply was modified 3 years, 6 months ago by [JuanMa Garrido](https://wordpress.org/support/users/juanmaguitar/). - This reply was modified 3 years, 6 months ago by [JuanMa Garrido](https://wordpress.org/support/users/juanmaguitar/).
