There are several potential reasons why the hamburger menu on your mobile site might stop working after the first click on a section in Webflow. Here are some possible causes and solutions:

Interactions conflict: If you have interactions or animations applied to your sections, they might conflict with the hamburger menu functionality. One common issue is having a "Hide Navbar" interaction triggered on the first click of a section, which may prevent subsequent clicks on the hamburger menu. To fix this, check your interactions panel and ensure there are no conflicting triggers or animations.
Z-index issue: The hamburger menu might be hidden behind other elements on the page due to a z-index conflict. Make sure your hamburger menu has a higher z-index value than other elements to ensure it remains visible and clickable. You can adjust the z-index value in the styles panel, or by using custom CSS code.
Scroll interactions: If you have scroll interactions enabled, they might interfere with the hamburger menu functionality. For instance, if you have a scroll animation that triggers a certain section to be visible, it may affect the behavior of the hamburger menu. Review your scroll interactions and ensure they don't interfere with the menu's functionality.
Custom code conflict: If you have custom code or third-party scripts added to your site, they might be causing the issue with the hamburger menu. Disable any custom code temporarily and see if the problem persists. If it resolves the issue, you can narrow down the conflicting code and find a solution or alternative.
Webflow bugs or limitations: Occasionally, a glitch or limitation in Webflow's platform might cause issues with the hamburger menu functionality. In such cases, it is recommended to reach out to Webflow support or check their community forums to see if others have reported similar issues and if any workarounds or fixes are available.

Remember to preview your website on actual mobile devices or using browser dev tools to ensure the problem is not specific to certain devices or screen sizes. By troubleshooting these potential causes, you should be able to identify and resolve the issue with your hamburger menu in Webflow.
