Top menu links not clickable in mobile view.

I am having a problem with clickable menu links similar to the ones at the end of this htread:
https://colorlibsupport.com/t/correct-menu-structure/page/2/#post-28178

I installed the plug-in color-lib-plugin69 and I can now click the top menu links from sub-menu pages on a desktop, but the mobile version is not working (the link colours are odd too, I don’t know how to remove the red hover background colour). I am a complete beginner at this, so please forgive if I am missing something very obvious.

The site is in development here:
santamariahotel.cockaigne.org/wp/
I am not using a child theme right now, as I am still playing with it all. When I am happy that I know what I’m doing (ha ha) I shall start with a proper child-theme on the correct URL.

Hi @elvira,

I hope you are well today and thank you for your question.

To resolve the issue please try using any of the following plugins to display mobile menu.

Best Regards,
Movin

Thank you very much, Movin - does this plug-in supersede the color-lib plug-in69? Should I uninstall that before installing this one?

many thanks in advance

You can just deactivate that colorlib plugin.

Thank you! What a fantastic resource you have here!

all very best wishes from London and Paraguay

Apologies, I’m stuck now. The plug-in wp-responsive-menu is not compatible with my essential WPML plug-in (the site is in English and Spanish), and the plug-in responsive-menu, which looks great, needs a higher version of php than I currently have. If I upgrade the php version from 5.2 to 5.4, Wordpress doesn’t work at all and I get server error pages.

Is there another plug-in I can use, or a way of tweaking the template to get the top links to work in the mobile version? Sorry for this!

It’s all OK, panic over. There was something wrong with the php.ini file - my webhost sorted it out and now everything is working. I am now going to try and get it to work with both English and Spanish menus. Onwards and upwards!

Is it possible to change the color and font of the Popular Posts of the Sparkling theme? I want this

Hi Movin, are you still monitoring this thread? I do hope so, if not I’ll start a new one.
I have now got Responsive Menu up and running and it’s working well, I think. However, there are two things I need your help with as they seem to be related to the template not the plug-in:

  1. The hamburger in phone view obscures a bit of the logo. In your original Sparkling template, the hamburger expanded the top of the header (?navbar? header? I’m not sure what it’s called, the top of the page) so as not to cover the logo. Is there something I can put into the CSS for Responsive menu or for Sparkling that will restore this capability?

  2. Is there a way to centre the menu in desktop view, rather than it aligning to the right? You gave an answer to this and other questions in another forum, but I cannot sort out which of the CSS applies to the alignment and which to the other things the guy wanted.

thanks in advance!
