Thanks! I hate how padding does that, couldn’t figure it out.

Well that’s why the primary thing I’d change is the ID of the navigation. In the parent theme stylesheet there is no styles assigned to #site-navigation which is the ID of my navigation bar.

At any rate, what is broken is the button functionality. The button will either still appear and nothing will happen when you click it or the button will appear and the nav links will be sitting outside it with no connection to the button (the button still does nothing)

In this case, I copied over all the @media screen portions that had to do with .main-navigation and changed the class (both in the navigation bar and in the styles) and still same issue: it breaks in mobile version by the links sit outside the non-functioning button.

Why was my post moved to Plugins and Hacks? I’m just trying to troubleshoot how to edit a functions.php file.

So I dug deeper into this and discovered that the menu stops working when the

<?php get_footer(); ?>

is removed.

Does anyone know why this is? I would like to know to further my understanding on how it works so I don’t mess it up if I want to edit the footer or to make it possible to again remove the footer.

I can’t find any indication in the footer code as to why it would have any effect on the munu toggle button in the header code.

Thank you so much!

My excerpts are hand-written, yes, in that I make the excerpt in the optional box when I create the post. The excerpt shows up but no […] or anything. The code in my functions.php is:

function change_excerpt_more()
{
  function new_excerpt_more($more)
    {
    // Use .read-more to style the link
      return '<span class="continue-reading"> <a href="' . get_permalink() . '">Continue Reading &raquo;</a></span>';
    }
  add_filter('excerpt_more', 'new_excerpt_more');
}
add_action('after_setup_theme', 'change_excerpt_more');

Nothing about it was changed.

The output of the site is as it sounds: no […] or “Continue reading” or anything to link to the full post asides from the title of it.
