    I tried updating a test copy to v2 and replaced all the depreciated helpers. But now none of the dropdowns work. All items are displayed all the time. I've copied the dropdown code from the copenhagen example but nothing works.

    Hey there Andy,

    I've created a ticket we can work together in, since I'll need to investigate your account. Normally, we do not assist with custom code within Support, but I would like to see if I can point you in the right direction. I hope members of our community can also jump in with advice here!

    @... can you please post what you find. You can see above from my colleague Chen we also ran into something similar - copied the copenhagen code, removed the depreciated helpers, but still ran into some of the same formatting issues as Andy.

    We ended up not upgrading to V2 and not purchasing the badging options because we couldn't figure it out.

    Thanks

    Kyle Jones any new leads on that? We faced the same problems and it seems like it's an Java Script issue. But couldn't figure out what exactly it might be.

    Hi, I was wondering if any of you have managed to solve this problem, as I have the same one and I can't get the dropdowns to work.

    Thanks.

    Hi Flywire ZD Admin,

    I went ahead & created a ticket on your behalf so we can work on the theme to see why the drop-down doesn't work. Please keep an eye out for our email!

    Hi there, for all that have "dropdown" issues:
    it can be fixed by adding whole dropdown section in script.js from original Copenhagen theme + adding a css rules to style dropdown and hide/show them based on aria-expanded attributes: 

    [aria-expanded=true] {
      display: block;
    }
    [aria-expanded=false] {
      display: none;
    }

    JS snippet:

      // Dropdowns
      
      function Dropdown(toggle, menu) {
        this.toggle = toggle;
        this.menu = menu;

        this.menuPlacement = {
          top: menu.classList.contains("dropdown-menu-top"),
          end: menu.classList.contains("dropdown-menu-end")
        };

        this.toggle.addEventListener("click", this.clickHandler.bind(this));
        this.toggle.addEventListener("keydown", this.toggleKeyHandler.bind(this));
        this.menu.addEventListener("keydown", this.menuKeyHandler.bind(this));
      }

      Dropdown.prototype = {

        get isExpanded() {
          return this.menu.getAttribute("aria-expanded") === "true";
        },

        get menuItems() {
          return Array.prototype.slice.call(this.menu.querySelectorAll("[role='menuitem']"));
        },

        dismiss: function() {
          if (!this.isExpanded) return;

          this.menu.setAttribute("aria-expanded", false);
          this.menu.classList.remove("dropdown-menu-end", "dropdown-menu-top");
        },

        open: function() {
          if (this.isExpanded) return;

          this.menu.setAttribute("aria-expanded", true);
          this.handleOverflow();
        },

        handleOverflow: function() {
          var rect = this.menu.getBoundingClientRect();

          var overflow = {
            right: rect.left < 0 || rect.left + rect.width > window.innerWidth,
            bottom: rect.top < 0 || rect.top + rect.height > window.innerHeight
          };

          if (overflow.right || this.menuPlacement.end) {
            this.menu.classList.add("dropdown-menu-end");
          }

          if (overflow.bottom || this.menuPlacement.top) {
            this.menu.classList.add("dropdown-menu-top");
          }

          if (this.menu.getBoundingClientRect().top < 0) {
            this.menu.classList.remove("dropdown-menu-top")
          }
        },

        focusNextMenuItem: function(currentItem) {
          if (!this.menuItems.length) return;

          var currentIndex = this.menuItems.indexOf(currentItem);
          var nextIndex = currentIndex === this.menuItems.length - 1 || currentIndex < 0 ? 0 : currentIndex + 1;

          this.menuItems[nextIndex].focus();
        },

        focusPreviousMenuItem: function(currentItem) {
          if (!this.menuItems.length) return;

          var currentIndex = this.menuItems.indexOf(currentItem);
          var previousIndex = currentIndex <= 0 ? this.menuItems.length - 1 : currentIndex - 1;

          this.menuItems[previousIndex].focus();
        },

        clickHandler: function() {
          if (this.isExpanded) {
            this.dismiss();
          } else {
            this.open();
          }
        },

        toggleKeyHandler: function(e) {

      }

      var dropdowns = [];
      var dropdownToggles = Array.prototype.slice.call(document.querySelectorAll(".dropdown-toggle"));

      dropdownToggles.forEach(function(toggle) {

    Thank you Michaela Vlckova! Just copy pasted the JS snippet and replaced it with the dropdown snippet from the template and it works perfectly fine! Awesome!

    I have the latest Copemhagen theme and the Dropdown snippet is already placed there. But even with replacing the snippet I still get no dropdown language menu. Also added the CSS rule, but still no result. Anyone has an idea ?
