Hi @kat,
Thanks for the info about the overlay. What I really wanted to see is how you integrated my suggestions that don’t seem to be working for you.
Thanks,
Bob

@kat Hi Kathleen,

If you pm me your email address I will sent you a We transfer folder with a Bootstrap 4 project only containing 2 pages HOME and ABOUT holding a kind of menu you are looking for. Easy to implement in any website not only Bootstrap!

It works with a hamburger menu only. Looks a bit more modern.

It’s technically not possible to upload it to the forum unfortunately!

I reposted mcgraphics.us/poets. Is there a PG tutorial on js or documentation on how to use it?
My html will work with Bootstrap 4 that David @AllMediaLab is sending me, right?
I don’t mind redoing this lots of different ways as I’m learning.

It’s in your mailbox! Containing a 2 page test site with a similar menu as on your example. If you want to use a normal navigation for bigger sizes you only have to make a media query for bigger screens normal menu and smaller screens the hamburger menu. Have fun!

Hey @kat,
So odd - when I open your site directly I can see the script at the bottom. When I open the URL in Pinegrow it disappears. Anyway, the problem with the script is the class that is being searched in the document. I thought it should be .toggle, but it should be .toggler. Just replace that in the querySelector and it should work fine.

On to David @AllMediaLab navigation.

You’re right this is really elegant. I especially like the way links transitions out on close.
Thanks so much for sharing.
