Bug - Sidebar - Hidden on smaller screens #12439
Description
Describe the problem
Sidebars will not be visible on the page when using a smaller screen and isManagedSidebar is false on the Page.
How do you reproduce the problem?
This can be seen on the PatternFly website: https://www.patternfly.org/components/page#vertical-navigation
- Reduce the size of the browser window until the sidebar automatically closes
- Click the hamburger button to try to open it again
- The sidebar does not open
Expected behavior
The sidebar should appear on the page as it does when using isManagedSidebar on a small screen.
Is this issue blocking you?
We cannot update our mobile app to the newest version of PatternFly due to this.

Sorry, by 'fixed' I meant that it works as a temporary workaround, not that the issue is resolved.
