 * I upgrade to Twenty Twelve 1.5 and the menu in mobile version doesn’t work anymore.
   Is there some new feature that could cause this?

 * Same issue. Took the 1.5 upgrade and now my mobile dropdown menu is not working.
 * Checked the dev tools and saw no javascript errors. Is this a js issue or a css
   issue? Can we please get a bug fix asap?
 * Many thanks for all of your great work!!

 * I was also having the same problem so I opened the header.php on the default 
   theme and noticed that the update has changed
    `<h3 class="menu-toggle"><?php
   _e( 'Menu', 'twentytwelve' ); ?></h3>` to `<button class="menu-toggle"><?php 
   _e( 'Menu', 'twentytwelve' ); ?></button>` so simply replace the code on the 
   header.php of your child theme to reflect the updated one.
 * It has solved my problem but I would still love to hear from the developers.

 * Hi junior466,
    Good eyes! Always suspected that child themes couldn’t protect
   you from all changes. Works for me. Thx, dge

 * Thanks junior466, this was driving me nuts! I don’t understand why WordPress 
   isn’t including a changelog. A simple change for them could mean hours of searching
   for us.
 * It’s also worth mentioning that some custom CSS on child themes could be messing
   with the display as well. Look for any mention of ‘h3.menu-toggle’ and replace
   it with ‘button.menu-toggle’ Or simply leave it as ‘.menu-toggle’ as you don’t
   need to over-qualify the selector anyway.
 * If WordPress allowed it, I’d be giving you some major rep-points right now, junior466.
   I can’t believe I missed that. You’re my hero.

 * I’d also like to thank Junior 466 for his helpful advice.
    I opened a topic in“
   Trouble Shooting” but without success, until I found the working solution here.
   Thx again!

 * I had the same issue: Mobile menu button of child theme of twentytwelve suddenly
   stopped working … And adding my thanks to junior466 for identifying the problem
   and finding the solution!
 * And I agree that theme developers, especially the official WordPress gang, should
   alert users via a changelog or some kind of notification system. Especially when
   the recommendation is to update right away. Need to be on the alert for what 
   might break when doing that.

 * Thanks Junior466! I had the same issue, and having applied the fix can see my
   menu when I press the mobile menu button – BUT: the display’s now messed up on
   the menu items (categories). Whereas before they were formatted as per my h3 
   formatting, and had an applied ‘lowercase’, now they display as a concatenated
   list of items – no spacing in between. So:

 * …instead of:
 * **about coaching training speaking writing soul ambition tv wheel of life testimonials
   rates contact blog**
 * Anyone else have formatting issues after the fix?
 * Thanks again!

 * Tracy,
    This is on the mobile menu or the desktop menu? My desktop menu shows
   across in all caps and the mobile version a double-spaced vertical list in mixed
   case. dge

 * Hi dge, the bad formatting example is what I see now on my mobile, when I touch
   the menu button – the formatting below is how it appears (correctly) on the desktop:
