How can I prevent the menu dropdown from disappearing under the hero slider when the link background is set to clear in Webflow?
To prevent the menu dropdown from disappearing under the hero slider when the link background is set to clear in Webflow, you can use the CSS z-index
property to create a stacking order for the elements on your page. Here's how you can achieve this:
- Select the hero slider element on your page. This could be a div block with an image or a slider component within Webflow.
- In the Style panel, navigate to the Positioning section. Set the
position
property to eitherrelative
orabsolute
. Userelative
if you want the element to flow within the normal page layout, orabsolute
if you want to position it precisely on the page. - Next, set the
z-index
property to a value higher than the z-index of the dropdown menu element. For example, if your dropdown menu element has a z-index of 1, set the hero slider's z-index to a value greater than 1, like 2. This will ensure that the hero slider appears on top of the dropdown menu.
.hero-slider { position: relative; z-index: 2;}
Note: Make sure that the parent element of the dropdown menu, which is usually a navbar or a dropdown wrapper, has a higher z-index than the hero slider. This way, the dropdown menu will be positioned on top of the hero slider, but below any other elements with a higher z-index.
By adjusting the z-index
values of your elements, you can control their stacking order and ensure that the menu dropdown does not disappear under the hero slider when the link background is set to clear in Webflow.
