Drop down menu disappears before you can click

Bill,

My menu seems really “slippery” and you can’t always click on the dropdown menu.

Can you tell me if there’s a fix for this?

Rebecca,

One option would be to make the “time-out” for the sub-menus a bit longer. Right now it is set at one second (1000 ms) but you could increase that. Here’s how:

1. Go to the appearance section and select edit.
2. From the list of files on your right, choose custom-js.php and look for this spot:

   
   jQuery(document).ready(function(){ 
           jQuery("ul.menu").superfish({ 
               animation: {opacity:'show',height:'show'},    
               delay:     1000               
           }); 
   }); 
   

3. Change the 1000 to 1500 or 2000 and save your changes. Test the menu and adjust if necessary.

Another option you might consider is to have the child menu of the current page open when that page is selected. There is a post about that at https://support.organizedthemes.com/forums/topic/stop-second-level-menu-collapsing-2/#post-7208

The menu was made for short drop down items with single word labels and tends to work best that way.

If you have any trouble, let me know.

Enjoy your weekend,
Bill

I pushed for single word menu items, but client wanted two words in many places.
The second option worked just great.

Many thanks.
