Hi jayg-7!

The main reason this isn’t working is because the left-bar div is not in the same stacking context as the bars.

To fix it, you’ll need to do two things…

  1. Add a `position:relative` to the `#text-3` section & a z-index of at least `31` (since the left-bar has a z-index of `30`).
  2. Move the `<div class=”left-bar mobile-hide”></div>` to inside of the `<div class=”flexible-widgets widget-area widget-full”>…</div>`, so it is in the same stacking context.
