Can't click elements in designer

I have a section on my home page — it used to be clickable, both in designer and on the final website. But now, I can’t edit it unless using the nav on the left to rifle through layers, nor can the user click on the buttons. Instead, when you click on the section, you click on the ‘body’. I don’t understand why — it is almost like the the body is on top of this section.

Here is my site Read-Only: LINK

@Amber_Johanna I found the issue — one of the sections had a negative z-index value, which was pushing it behind the rest of the page and making it unclickable.

The reason your content isn’t clickable is because the section (or element) has a z-index of -3.

In Webflow (and on the web in general), a negative z-index places an element behind the page’s other layers — including the main “body” layer. That means your content is technically “under” everything else, so it can’t receive any clicks or interactions.
