Your navigation menu not appearing on top in vertical mobile view is typically caused by z-index conflicts or positioning issues that behave differently at certain breakpoints.
1. Check Z-Index of Navigation Components
- Select your nav wrapper, menu button, and open menu container.
- In the Style panel, ensure the nav or menu has a higher z-index than overlapping sections (e.g., popups, banners, hero sections).
- Try setting the mobile nav menu’s z-index to 9999 as a test on the mobile portrait breakpoint only.
2. Confirm Positioning is Set Correctly
- The mobile nav should have Position: Fixed or Absolute with appropriate top/left/right/bottom values on smaller breakpoints.
- If set to Relative or Static, it may get pushed below other content on mobile portrait view.
3. Check if Other Elements Are Overlapping
- Divs like hero sections, overlays, or custom components may be covering the nav due to improper positioning or stacking order.
- Use Webflow’s Preview mode and Element Inspector to see what element is layered above the nav in mobile portrait.
4. Verify Display Settings at Each Breakpoint
- Select your dropdown menu or mobile menu (typically a div block triggered by the hamburger icon).
- Ensure it is set to Display: Block or Flex when open, especially on mobile portrait. Sometimes menus don’t auto-display if visibility isn’t configured per breakpoint.
5. Recheck Interactions and Animations
- Menu open/close actions using interactions may not be working correctly just on vertical mobile view.
- Test to see if an interaction is set to affect only a certain breakpoint or is toggling visibility improperly (e.g., hiding instead of sliding in).
Summary
The mobile nav not displaying on top in vertical view is likely due to a z-index or positioning conflict, or display settings that don’t carry over correctly to the smallest breakpoint. Focus on making sure the nav menu has a high z-index, correct positioning, and is set to display on mobile portrait specifically.
