# Custom Header – menu not responsive

 * I have created a custom header in My Library and selected it as my custom header.
   I have used the Elementor Custom Menu widget within the header and all looks 
   good on my PC.
 * However, when I shrink the screen or view on a phone the menu just wraps around
   instead of providing the hamburger icon and its drop-down. Is there a simple 
   fix for this?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fcustom-header-menu-not-responsive%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hello,
 * OceanWP doesn’t control the Elementor menu. Try to use the Custom Header Nav 
   widget to fix it.

 * I played around with that too, but couldn’t find any obvious ways to style it.
 * Feels like I am being forced by Elementor to upgrade the site to Elementor Pro
   for such a small bit of functionality 🙁

 * And surprise surprise, Elementor say its an issue with OceanWP.
 * Here is their response:
    Upon checking your dashboard I noticed the menu was 
   not built using Elementor nav-menu widget. It is a custom menu coming from your
   theme and in this case, we kindly recommend reporting this issue to the third-
   party theme author, they’d be in a better position to address this issue or assist
   you with this. Unfortunately, we do not have control over the theme’s code and
   we are not aware of its functionalities.

 * Actually they have been excellent and logged onto my site to have another more
   detailed look.
 * They confirm that the issue is indeed with OceanWP as it uses div.oceanwp-custom-
   menu. They then changed my theme to Twenty Twenty and hey presto, the menu works
   fine and uses a hamburger when displayed on a mobile device.
 * They have offered to help OceanWP with the issue if they open an issue on their
   Github account. Not sure where to go from here. Change the theme or get the Pro
   version of Elementor seem to be the options, unless there is some clever CSS 
   that would fix this.

 * I’m not able to view the site anymore since it is in the maintenance mode. Can
   you disable it temporarily so that I can take a look again?

 * Yes, you are now using Ocean Custom Menu. I’ll suggest you use the ‘>>Custom 
   Header Nav’ widget instead of the ‘ocean custom menu’ widget to fix this issue.

 * I’ve been using the custom header widget all along. With the Custom Header Nav
   widget I can’t see any way to customise the font, colour etc so it’s not really
   usable. But surely the Custom Header widget should work anyway?

 * [@cufcmark](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cufcmark/) custom header nav 
   widget displays the main menu. So if you are using it, kindly go to Customize
   > header > menu and customize it. For font size, Customize > Typography > Main
   Menu section.
