Navigation menu cumulative layout shift

[Viktor]

Does anyone know how to fix the cumulative layout shift that is caused by a navigation menu. The DevTools show me that the dropdown menu is shifting the page. I'm using Genesis Sample Theme 3.3.0.

Here's my current blog post: https://thediyplan.com/diy-floor-rocking-chair/

Thanks

This is a temporary solution that's working for many of us until themes or the framework has been updated.

Install Genesis Js No-JS plugin by Gary Jones - https://wordpress.org/plugins/genesis-js-no-js/.

Then add this snippet of CSS to your theme.

.js nav {display: none;}
@ media only screen and (min-width: 1024px) {
.js nav {display: block;}
} 

Note - do not put the space between the @ sign and the word media. I had to do that because the forum was turning it into a link.

Hi,

I tried your fix Anita but it just completely removes my menu on mobile, which is clearly undesirable.

Any idea how to get your fix to work on my site? Thanks.

@jonathonfowler you posted on another thread about this issue. You are using the Ansel theme by Imagely and not a StudioPress theme. The handling of your menu may be different than those of StudioPress. I would suggest you reach out to Imagely about their theme to see if they can resolve that for you.
