Description

When a user clicks on the website logo located in the header, it is expected to redirect to the homepage. However, clicking the logo does nothing — the page does not reload or navigate anywhere.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
-Open the website in a browser (Chrome v124).
-Navigate to any page.
-Click on the logo in the top-left header area.
-Observe the behavior.

Expected behavior
User should be redirected to the homepage (/) when clicking on the site logo — a common and standard UX pattern.

Actual Behavior
Nothing happens when clicking the logo. No redirection occurs, and the user stays on the current page.

Severity
Medium – This affects user navigation and violates common UX expectations.

Environment
-Website: Opencut.app
-Browser: Chrome v124
-OS: Windows 10
-Screen Size: 1280x720

Additional context
This may be due to the logo tag missing an href="/", or it might be blocked by a JavaScript issue.
The logo element might be wrapped in a div instead of an anchor tag.
