Turning off "plg.effect" has unintended consequences

cemsdb

Following up on this recent post "How to turn off loading animation" (https://www.joomlart.com/forums/d/45194-how-to-turn-off-loading-animation) which suggested to turn off the "plg.effect" feature in the template settings, I eventually (after hours of trying to understand root of problems) discovered some very unfortunate consequences for doing so, specifically:

1) The main menu no longer works when it has submenus attached. The submenus don't appear and even the mainmenu item stops working.

2) In the contact page the box labels (Name, Email, Subject, etc) has dissappeared.

Both items start working normally again once the "plg.effect" is reactivated. How does one prevent these unintented results?

cemsdb HI

Somehow, it doesn't work in Joomla 3 specific, it works well with Joomla 4. I've reported to our team for further checking.

But I recommend you to migrate your site to Joomla 4 if possible.

UPDATE:

Disable the effect addon and comment the JS code line 31-56 in this file: /templates/ja_seven/js/template.js

// DrawSVG
var t4SVG = jQuery('.t4-svg-effect svg').drawsvg({
    duration: 2000
});

var t4AosSVG = jQuery('.t4-svg-aos-effect svg').drawsvg({
    duration: 2000
});

jQuery('.t4-svg-effect svg').drawsvg('animate');


// AOS Effect
jQuery('.t4-section,.sticky-content > div').attr('data-aos','');
AOS.init({
    duration: 1500,
    once: true,
    disable: function() {
        var maxWidth = 992;
        return window.innerWidth < maxWidth;
    } 
});

document.addEventListener('aos:in', ({ detail }) => {
    t4AosSVG.drawsvg('animate');
});

I updated for your site and it's working now.
