Menu button not working for mobile?

[sslou]

Hi,

I recently built my website with the b811f9a version of the starter-academic theme using Hugo 0.80 with R blogdown. When hugo serves the development version of my website, the menu button displayed for small window sizes works fine. But when I push the public folder to github pages, the menu button no longer works. When I inspect the page, I get this uncaught error:

Uncaught TypeError: $(...).tooltip is not a function
    at wowchemy.min.982af1f55a074589bec34f6089331b4b.js:64
    at dispatch (jquery.min.js:2)
    at v.handle (jquery.min.js:2)

I've updated my theme files to the latest release of starter-academic 05c772f but this still doesn't seem to be working for me. Any thoughts on why this is happening?

Thanks!

I notice that you have not followed the official installation guide at https://wowchemy.com/docs/getting-started/install/ . Do you experience this issue when publishing a site with the official guide?

Also, your site doesn't appear to have any URL specified. Have you tried defining the URL of the site? See https://github.com/sslou/personal_website/blob/279f7cde37e719997312b782a897c0a53069a690/config.yaml#L3

Update: I configured netlify hosting for my website and the menu button works fine when netlify builds the site from the raw content files. I would prefer to use github sites hosting though.

This suggests to me that the issue is either 1) the way my local hugo installation is building the html files (although it is still strange that the menu button works when I locally serve the development version of the site) or 2) the way github serves the public/ folder html. I would appreciate any insight into which of these is more likely, and if there are potential fixes for me to explore. Thanks!
