If you are experiencing the issue of nothing changing in your navigation, even after unchecking all options, there are a few steps you can take in Webflow to fix this problem:

  1. Check for interactions:
  • Sometimes, the lack of changes on the navigation menu is due to interactions applied to the element. Interactions can override the settings you have made in the navigator. To check if there are any interactions affecting your navigation, you can go to the Interactions panel located on the right-hand side of the Webflow designer. Here, you can remove or edit any interactions that may be interfering with your desired changes.
  1. Verify the correct breakpoints:
  • Webflow allows you to design responsive websites, and changes made within specific breakpoints can differ. Ensure that you are editing the correct breakpoints for your navigation. You can switch between breakpoints in the top bar of the Webflow designer.
  1. Review your CSS styles and classes:
  • If you have custom CSS styles or classes applied to your navigation, they might be overriding the changes made in the navigator. Double-check the styles and classes to ensure they are not conflicting with your desired changes. You can access the CSS styles and classes in the Styles panel on the right side of the Webflow designer.
  1. Clear cache and refresh:
  • Sometimes, caching issues can prevent your changes from being visible in the browser. Clear your browser cache and refresh the page to ensure you are viewing the most recent version of your website.
  1. Publish the changes:
  • After making any changes to your navigation, make sure to publish your site for the changes to take effect. Click on the "Publish" button in the top-right corner of the Webflow designer to push the latest changes live.

By following these steps, you should be able to troubleshoot and fix the issue of nothing changing despite unchecking everything in the navigation.
