Hi Support Team,

I’m facing an issue with the main navigation menu on my website.

In the English (default) language, the “Shop” menu displays a dropdown icon, and the dropdown menu works correctly.

However, when I switch to any other language, the following issues occur:

The dropdown arrow icon disappears next to the “Shop” menu item.

The dropdown menu does not open — it becomes completely non-clickable.

Hello,

❌ Please make a full website backup before proceeding ❌

Before moving forward, can you please update all outdated plugins to the latest version?

I suggest creating a mega menu per language following these steps:

If that does not help, is it OK if I take a copy of the site to debug locally?

Best Regards,
Otto
