If the text links in your animated dropdown menu are disappearing after hovering over them a few times on your Webflow website, there are a few potential causes for this issue:

  1. CSS styling conflict: It's possible that there is a CSS styling conflict causing the text links to disappear. Check if there are conflicting styles or hover effects applied to the text links or the parent dropdown menu. The conflicting styles may include transparency, background color, or text color changes.

  2. Z-index misalignment: Another possible cause is a misalignment of the z-index values in the dropdown menu. Ensure that the z-index values of the dropdown menu and the text links are properly configured so that the links remain visible when hovered over.

  3. JavaScript issue: If the dropdown menu is powered by JavaScript or interactions, there may be a bug in the scripting code causing the links to disappear. Double-check the code for any errors or conflicts that could be triggering this issue.

To troubleshoot and resolve this issue, consider the following steps:

  • Inspect the dropdown menu and text links in your browser's developer tools to identify any styling conflicts or errors in the CSS code.
  • Review the z-index values for the dropdown menu and the text links to ensure they are properly set.
  • Verify the JavaScript or interaction code associated with the dropdown menu for any bugs or conflicts.
  • If you're using custom code or third-party plugins, check if there are any known issues or conflicts with the dropdown menu functionality.

By following these troubleshooting steps, you should be able to identify and resolve the issue causing the text links to disappear in your animated dropdown menu on your Webflow website.
