Removing language menu from header results in visual glitch

Opened this issue · 2 comments

I'm having an issue when I'm trying to remove other languages (non- EN) from a website. I'm using the WPML multi-lingual plugin, and I have followed the guide posted here: https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/language-setup/deleting-languages-and-plugin-data-by-doing-a-wpml-reset-on-your-site/

The issue I’m having occurs when I try to remove the language menu from the sites theme. When un-checking Language Menu 2 from the Theme > Customize menu, I get repeating dots scrolling in the header. I think it’s more of an issue with the sites theme, Understrap Child, rather than the WPML plugin as I've followed the WPML language removal steps.

Any thoughts on why this is happening?

@BritChild - your first step should probably be to "inspect" those "dots" (likely a <ul> element) within your browser console to establish what Classes or ID might be associated with them. Then search for that Class or ID within your build to establish where they are coming from.

Thanks for the suggestion @dekkydog, I hadn't thought of that. That should give me a clue on where to start investigating. I'm a graphic designer with a little Wordpress knowledge, so this isn't my forte.
