CSS Navigation not working completely

Post by Thepaac »

You can't open the CONTACT page from the HOME, ABOUT, CLUB NEWS, or CALENDAR pages. All the other main menu and sub-menu pages access the CONTACT fine. All worked well until recently. Below is the site.

That's because your link to the contact page on the home page is 'home.html#'. You need to remove the # sign from the link.

I noticed that as well, however, the # is added to the .html after the button to CONTACT is pushed.

I don't believe that WB adds it. Did you check your link properties in WB to make sure it was inadvertently added?

Attached are two screenshots. The first is a menu link that does not work, no # anywhere. The second a menu link that does work. I see no difference between the properties of either.

It is not possible to view the links provided as these are located on your PC and only you can view!. Either upload the images to your on site and provide urls or use the following url https://imgbb.com/ and provide the generated url they provide. Also ensure that there is no spaces in the naming as this can make the images invalid for viewing.

Unless I'm missing something, the issue you stated was clicking on the 'contact' button. The images you provided are not of the 'contact' button link but of the Home and Overview link. I relooked at your site and It looks to me that you have not specified a link to the contact page. You only have '#' in as the link based on the code. This is why it doesn't go anywhere and stays on the home page. To me, the menu used on the home page is not the same menu being used the Fire Truck page. If it is, then did you make changes and only update certain pages which is why it works on some and not others? Is the menu indivually on each page or used in a master page?

The issue is clicking on the 'contact' button from the HOME, ABOUT, CLUB NEWS, or CALENDAR pages does not direct you to the 'contact page'. I showed screenshots of the property links from the HOME page that do not work and the OVERVIEW page which does direct you to the CONTACT page. As you can see there is no difference in them. No # in the property link in the HOME page, or any of the other none working pages.

That is because there is no link / url to the page you have used # you can see this in the screenshot below to reset please add the url / link

No, what you showed was images of the Home button (which shows the link to go to the Home page) and Overview button (which shows it goes to the wls_overview page) in the Responsive menu. Show us a screenshot of the 'contact' button in the menu. This is what needs to be fixed.

Well....there's your problem!

You don't have the 'link to:' to a page in the project. You have it set to Smart Link. And where it says 'Page:' you have Parent Page rather than the contact us page which should be 'contact_paac'.

Did you re-upload all the pages again? Looks the same on the server to me on the home page.

The code in your picture is from what page?

Bottomline is you need to update the menu on each of the pages that it is not working on and then re-upload it to your website.

crispy68 The code I changed is from the web host 'contact_paac.php" file. It's the line Bacon Fries suggested I change. See his post earlier.

The menu on the contact page is not the issue.

Its the Home, About, Club News, & Calendar pages that are the problem as you stated in your first post. You need to fix the menu on these pages in your WB project file.

crispy68, I copied and pasted "./contact_paac.php" to the menus of HOME, ABOUT, CLUB NEWS, & CALENDAR pages and uploaded them. With 25% success, CONTACT US now works from the CLUB NEWS page, however, the other three pages are still a "no go". My brain is fried now, I'll try again tomorrow. Thanks for your help :?
