# Menu doesn’t auto-expand

 * Hello
 * After a long time of not updating the theme I updated from ~3.13 to the latest
   version of 3.15.3.
 * [Website link](http://www.srslygames.com/)
 * The menu at the top of the page on my website has stopped auto-expanding. You
   now have to click it in order to see the items under it. In addition these items
   now stay stuck on the page and don’t ‘collapse’.
 * I am using a decode-child theme with a few very small php and css changes but
   otherwise everything else is the theme normally.
 * The style.css for the child theme has these two menu changes:
 *     ```
       /* Stops the shake animation on menu items */
       .menu-item a:hover{
       animation: none !important; /*Firefox*/
       -webkit-animation: none !important; /*Chrome*/
       }
   
       /* fix downward facing menus */
       .horizontal-menu ul ul ul {
        	left: 100%;
        	top: 0;
        }
       ```
   
 * I would like to restore the previous functionality of the menu items expanding
   on mouse hover and then going away when the mouse hover leaves.
 * Please help.
 * Thank you.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fmenu-doesnt-auto-expand%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)

 * Hi,
    I just visited your site and for me the menu is working perfectly OK. It
   looks like you have already figured it out!
 * Site looks nice on black btw 🙂

 * [@subrata](https://wordpress.org/support/users/subrata/) – thanks for the reply.
   It didn’t actually work for me on firefox (yes on chrome) and other people said
   it works for them. Was weird.
 * [@mplusb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mplusb/) – after adding that it
   seems to work for me on firefox as well. Thank you!
