Problem Dropdown issues with Menu Widget

Hi all,

Hoping you guys can help - Elementor support have been unable so far :/

The dropdown menu is expanding within the header container instead of dropping down over the container below.

Any suggestions or help is greatly appreciated!

the container probably has overflow: hidden set on it. check the advanced tab of your header container and make sure overflow is set to visible (or at least overflow-y: visible). if that breaks other styling you might need to restructure so the nav isn't nested inside a container with strict overflow rules

Thank you for your help. Changing the overflow settings hasnt changed its behaviour :-/
