The mobile menu has a 3-bar icon on the right which when clicked goes to a specific sidebar menu. Can this 3-bar icon navigate to other sidebar menus depending on specific page/post being viewed?

Hi Edward
Thanks for reaching out.
Unfortunately, this isn’t possible without a fair amount of custom coding. This is beyond the scope of what we can help you with on the forums, but you could hire a developer to implement this for you.
We highly recommend using https://codeable.io/.
Andrew,Thanks for the reply.
Thanks for your understanding. If anything else comes up, please, let me know.
All the best.
Andrew,Where can I find the 3 bar icon in mobile if I wish to change its function? Thanks.Ed
Hi :) It would be an intermediate PHP task to change the way the mobile menu functions. It’s unfortunately beyond the scope of small customizations we can help with here on the forums. In the Vantage theme folder, the mobile nav is setup in /premium/extras/mobilenav/mobilenav.php. All WordPress themes overwrite their own folder during theme updates so it isn’t update safe to change this file. Edits would need to be made via a child theme using the filters and actions available in the above-mentioned file.
Andrew,Thank you for the information and your prompt reply.
For sure :)
Andrew, Using the editor, and opening premium/extras/ I am unable to find either mobilenav or mobilenav.php. What am I doing wrong? I would like the mobile menu 3 bar icon to go to the bottom of the page instead of the about us sidebar menu. This would be helpful for long pages requiring scrolling to the bottom of the page to see the menu.
Unfortunately, it isn’t update safe to make changes to any files within the Vantage parent theme. All WordPress themes completely overwrite their own folder during theme updates. A child theme should be used when theme files need to be edited. However, when it comes to things like the mobile menu functions, it’s not as simple as copying files from the parent to the child theme, you’d need to use filters to change the functions. I realise this seems like a simple change, unfortunately, it isn’t. It’s beyond our support scope, a developer would need to assist. We recommend Codeable.
Edward, I might have a solution. One moment.
Apologies. I missed that you had added the Responsive Menu plugin. Right now it’s confusing with two different menus, we ideally need to clean this up and then as a second task we can find a way to link to content.
1. Insert the following at Appearance > Custom CSS:
2. Now for the skip to content link:
* Go to Appearance > Widgets and insert a Text widget into the Header widget area. Insert into that widget the following:
* At Appearance > Custom CSS, insert the following:
