got it thank you Sean, checking on the document



Hi,

You will need to reinitialize the KT components when you deal with dynamically populated elements. You can refer to the Bootstrap KTMenu component API documentation here.

Regards.



data-kt-menu-trigger when clicked does not open the menu? do i need to reinitialise the menu?
