If you are experiencing issues where links in the menu are not landing on the correct section for some customers in Webflow, there are a few potential solutions you can try:

Check anchor link settings: Make sure that the anchor links in your menu are correctly set up to point to the appropriate sections on your page. Anchor links are used to navigate within a single page, by linking to a specific section with an ID. Double-check that the anchor links have the correct target section ID assigned to them.
Verify section IDs: Ensure that the section IDs you have assigned to the target sections match the anchor link URLs. The IDs are case-sensitive, so make sure they are entered exactly as they appear in the anchor links.
Check conflicting elements: Sometimes, conflicting elements on your page can interfere with the scrolling behavior. Check for any overlapping elements, divs, or containers that might be affecting the scroll position. Adjust the layout or positioning of these elements to ensure that the target sections are visible when the anchor links are clicked.
Test in different browsers: It's possible that the issue is browser-specific. Test the links in various browsers to identify if the problem is isolated to a particular browser. If the issue only occurs in one browser, it could be related to browser-specific rendering or compatibility issues.
Check custom code or interactions: If you have custom code or interactions on your website, they could potentially interfere with the scrolling behavior. Review your custom code and interactions to ensure they are not conflicting with the anchor links. Temporarily disable any custom code or interactions to see if the issue is resolved.
Republish and clear cache: After making any changes or adjustments, republish your website in Webflow. Additionally, ensure that you clear the cache on your browser to ensure you are testing the latest version of your website.

By following these steps, you should be able to troubleshoot and resolve issues where links in the menu are not landing on the correct section for some customers in Webflow.
