A user encountered an issue with centering their navigation menu in a store header. They initially tried using CSS flexbox with justify-content: center and display: flex on the .header__inline-menu class, but the menu wasn’t perfectly centered.
Resolution:
The issue was resolved by switching to absolute positioning with transform. The working solution uses:
position: absolute
left: 50%
transform: translateX(-50%)
display: flex
This approach centers the menu by positioning it at 50% from the left and then offsetting it back by half its own width. The discussion is now closed with the problem successfully solved.
