 * Hello,
    Is there any way (plugin or js) that I can use the swipe gesture for 
   the mobile menu to appear/disappear?

 * Hi! Thanks for the quick reply.
    I’m referring to the physical action of swiping
   the mobile screen to the right and revealing the menu and vise versa.

 * Hi, this is the Sidebar mobile menu style that you can choose in the Header >
   Mobile Menu section of the customizer.

 * This is the one I’m using, but the swipe gesture control doesn’t work. It’s ok
   by pressing the burger and close limks but no gesture.
    Please check devwp.techliving.

 * Both on LG G4 and Galaxy S7. I use the gesture with my finger swiping to the 
   right and the menu doesn’t open (only by tapping the hamburger) and while open
   swiping to the left doesn’t close it (only by tapping on close menu link).

 * Yes, it is the normal behavior, you open it by taping the hamburger icon and 
   close it via the overlay or the close link.

 * So, is there a way to enable the swipe gestures? Should I look for a JavaScript
   solution? Could you advice please?
