 * Hello coders,
 * This is the first time I am creating my custom theme with WordPress but, I am
   having a problem displaying menus on my website. There are no plugins to deactivate
   and to check if they are causing the problem. I can see my menus in the console
   but it is not displayed in the header.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fwordpress-menu-not-showing%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Can you please provide more information? I see a home link on the URL you posted,
   so there is a menu item there currently. If you are saying that your WordPress
   menu isn’t showing there, have you looked at this: [https://codex.wordpress.org/Navigation_Menus](https://codex.wordpress.org/Navigation_Menus)

 * Thank you for a quick reply. Can you please check now? I have commented on my
   static menus. And, I cannot see the menu from my end.

 * Can you paste the code from your theme so I can see how you have implemented 
   the menu? There is a flash of a menu when looking at the page in a “phone-sized”
   Chrome browser window. It then gets covered up by another menu overlay.

 * I have also noticed the flash of menus, but when you click the hamburger it overtakes
   that. Also, the menus displayed in the hamburger is also not working. If I call
   primary menus in the hamburger gives the list of menus but takes other features
   like search and others.

 * The menu shows up in the mobile view but does not show up on the website. I have
   checked that with other themes but my menu is visible on the other theme.
