Overlapping Text in navigation menu error

Hi, I still haven't got this resolved...

In the primary navigation menu, when I click on the first drop down option, the text at the bottom of the list crowds over the other drop down menu headings.

I have attached a pics for reference - is there anyway I can increase the length of the dropdown box for these items only (it's a long list!) 

Is it a limitation of the amount of links you can have in a menu?

The website is: https://www.marisagarnerassociates.com/

 

Many thanks!!

Hi Marisa. There's a limitation set on the maximum amount of space assigned to the items in the nav folder, so this effectively limits the number of items before you see this overflow. By default, the maximum height of the folder is set to 1000px. I think the best option is to override this height limitation with some CSS. For example, add this to Design > Custom CSS:

.cs-menu-submenu-open ul {
  max-height: 1218px;
}

Alternatively, you could reduce the spacing between the items in the nav folder so they take up less space but this could impact usability on touch devices:

.cs-menu a {
  padding: 11px 30px;
}

Let me know how you get on.

I've posted in your original question @MarisaGarner as it's better to keep everything together.
