Image Banner interfering with drop down menu - Refresh Theme

Shopify Discussion

Topic summary

A user encountered an issue where dropdown menu items on their Shopify store’s homepage were unclickable when positioned over an image banner. The banner was intercepting clicks instead of allowing menu interaction.

Solutions Proposed:

  • Remove position: absolute from .slideshow__action-full class
  • Add z-index: 1 !important; to .headerMenu-menuList2, .headerMenu-menuList3 in the base.css file

Resolution & New Issue:
Removing the position styling fixed the dropdown menu problem. However, this created a secondary issue: image banner links to collections stopped functioning.

Current Status:
The original poster is seeking a solution that resolves the dropdown menu interference without breaking the banner link functionality. Another user has requested clarification on where to locate the relevant code, indicating they face the same problem.

Hi Salil17, I removed that string and it has fixed my issue interfering with the drop down menu. But now I can’t seem to link my image banner to collections like before?
