How to get subpages to show on mobile version of Dusk 2 theme

Help! Apparently there's a long-standing bug in the Dusk 2 theme resulting in subpages not showing up on mobile. Has anyone written CSS to get around this? It's the perfect theme for my use in every other way, but this is a deal-breaker. Help!

Update:

The down arrows are actually there functionally, but aren't visible. If you tap to the far right of the top-level page, the subpages will show up. There's just no way to know there are subpages.

Website is www.kgftest.weebly.com. Am using it as a prototype to convert fully from another platform to Weebly. Help!

Hi Bernadette:

I have resolved this problem on my own. Turns out the CSS was pointing to an svg file and, for some reason, that file wasn't being rendered properly. I tried replacing it with other svg images and had the same problem. I finally replaced it with a .png image and everything now works perflectly. 

Please ask whoever is responsible for maintaining Dusk 2 to make the change within the theme. I can send you the image I used if needed. The location of the code calling the image is on navigation.less, line #243.

There's one other weird thing it would be great to get fixed while they're at it... when a link is added to text, the letter spacing on the text becomes weird. That can be fixed by changing line #59 of mixins.less to this:

letter-spacing: 0.01em.

Please let me know when those simple changes get made. I need to build this site on our domain and would appreciate having a clean and functional theme to do it with.

Thanks,

...Lola

Hi there. I'm not aware of an open bug with this particular theme. It looks like the site in your account is using a custom theme, though. Did you edit it after posting this question? You would need to revert back to a Weebly standard theme in order for us to troubleshoot.

Hi Bernadette. I have been playing around with the CSS trying to fix the problem. I believe it's now reverted to the standard theme. According to Weebly Support this has been an outstanding bug for several years. I'm looking for a workaround and would be grateful for any updated guidance.

Here's the email from Support:

I’m very sorry for that experience. What you’re describing has been identified as a bug, and is being investigated by our engineering team.

At the moment, I don’t have a timeframe for when we’ll have this fixed, but someone will follow up with you as soon as we have a resolution. Just know if you haven’t heard from us after some time, that simply means we don’t have it resolved just yet. Nevertheless, thank you so much for your patience while we work on it, and I assure you we’ll do so as diligently as possible.

Thanks for the clarification. I was able to confirm the information you received is correct. Unfortunately, we are not able to provide an eta for a fix. I know there are some users on here that are able to help with custom code, and it's best to provide a link to your site in case someone comes across this thread and is able to assist.
