Mobile Hamburger Menu - Fixed

Issue Resolved

The hamburger icon (☰) on mobile wasn't working - it would toggle state but no menu appeared.

What Was Wrong

  • Hamburger button existed and changed state (mobileMenuOpen)
  • But: No mobile menu dropdown was actually rendered
  • The button was toggling a state that nothing was listening to

Fix Applied

1. Added Mobile Menu Dropdown

Created a full-featured mobile menu that appears when hamburger is clicked:

{mobileMenuOpen && (
  <>
    {/* Backdrop - dismisses menu when clicked */}
    <div onClick={() => setMobileMenuOpen(false)} />
    
    {/* Menu Content */}
    <div>
      {/* All navigation links */}
      {/* Mobile-specific actions */}
      {/* Logout button */}
    </div>
  </>
)}

2. Features Added

Navigation Links:

  • 🏠 Home
  • 👤 Profile
  • 🎵 Song Database
  • 🙏 Worship List
  • ⚙️ Settings

Mobile-Only Actions:

  • Profile Dropdown
  • Export Dropdown
  • 🔄 Sync Now button

Logout Button (prominent red button at bottom)

User Experience:

  • Smooth slide-down animation
  • Click backdrop to close
  • Auto-closes when selecting a link
  • Touch-friendly button sizes (44px minimum)
  • Scrollable if content is tall

3. Added CSS Animation

New slideDown keyframe animation for smooth menu appearance:

@keyframes slideDown {
  from {
    opacity: 0;
    transform: translateY(-20px);
  }
  to {
    opacity: 1;
    transform: translateY(0);
  }
}

How It Works Now

On Mobile

  1. Tap hamburger icon (☰) → Menu slides down
  2. Tap any link → Navigates and closes menu
  3. Tap backdrop → Closes menu
  4. Tap X icon → Closes menu

On Desktop

  • Menu doesn't appear (hidden with md:hidden class)
  • Original horizontal navigation works as before
