Delayed Drop-Down Submenu only with Safari mobile

Hey @rolfschroeter – that definitely sounds very unusual.

This may be a plugin or theme conflict. Please attempt to disable all plugins, and use one of the default (Twenty*) themes. If the problem goes away, enable them one by one to identify the source of your troubles.

If you can install plugins, install and activate “Health Check”: https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/health-check/
It will add some additional features under the menu item under Tools > Site Health.
On its troubleshooting tab, you can Enable Troubleshooting Mode. This will disable all plugins, switch to a standard WordPress theme (if available), allow you to turn your plugins on and off and switch between themes, <strong>without affecting normal visitors to your site</strong>. This allows you to test for various compatibility issues.

There’s a more detailed description about how to use the Health Check plugin and its Troubleshooting Mode at https://make.www.ads-software.com/support/handbook/appendix/troubleshooting-using-the-health-check/

Thank you, @jordesign !

Unfortunately there is another oddity, that makes troubleshooting mode difficult to use: The described delay does not occur, when I am logged in to the site, only for users that are not. Guess I will have to find another way, to figure that out. Thanks anyway:)

I worked around the problem, by using a third party plugin, that provides a navigation block, that works well, even on Safari (Gutenverse). Unfortunately I could not test on the live site, to detect the conflict, as it is the site of an event, happening soon …

Hi @rolfschroeter – I’m glad you’ve found a workaround – but it’s definitely an odd one.

I’ll resolve the issue here for now – as you’ve got a solution of sorts. But if you have the trouble again – please feel free to open another issue.
