Why isn't my Habitat theme menu displaying on desktop?

Topic summary

Main issue: The Habitat theme’s header menu is not appearing on the desktop view, although it shows in theme preview and as a dropdown on mobile.

Latest update: After checking the provided site URL (biofaireland.ie), a helper observed that navigation (menu links) has not been set up, supported by a screenshot.

Clarification request: The site owner asked where the code being referenced is located. The helper advised using the browser’s developer tools (opened with Ctrl + Shift + I) to inspect the page, check for errors, and identify fixes.

Key terms: “Navigation” refers to the configured menu items/links shown in the header. “Developer tools” (dev tools) are built-in browser inspectors for viewing HTML/CSS/JS and console errors.

Artifacts: Screenshots are central to illustrating the missing menu and the helper’s diagnosis.

Status: No specific fix or configuration steps have been provided yet. The issue remains unresolved; next actions likely involve confirming/setting up the navigation and investigating errors via dev tools.

Hi,

We are using the Habitat theme. The menu is set up in the header and displaying in the preview and in a drop down option on mobile, but there is no menu displaying on the desktop version… Any help to solve this would be appreciated. Image below:

Kind Regards,

You use the key combination Ctrl + Shift + I. It will show you the dev tool. Used to check errors and find ways to fix errors when encountering errors on the website
