I have elements overlapping with the activity stream tour. I am including a screenshot. I don’t have a child theme on this site and css seems particularly difficult to make changes with.

I would also like to thank the team for making c-box! I have been using it since it launched and have built a successful community with my latest site – 523 active members. This particular community launched in January.

Hi James – Thanks for being a dedicated user of CBOX!  If you want us to showcase your site, let us know.

The particular issue you refer to is difficult for the dev team to address without a little more info.  Is it possible for you to share (either publicly or privately) a link that would actively display the issue.  Or conversely, maybe you can turn on a web debugger like Firebug (in Firefox) to see if you see what is overlaying the content of the activity stream.  Is it possible that you installed a new plugin that might account for this problem?  Did it occur recently (i.e. after updating to new version of CBOX) ?

Sorry for all the questions – but answers would help when I create a ticket for the dev team to investigate.

Hi Scott,

Thanks for the reply. You would have to join the site to see the problem. Here is the URL: https://earthcointalk.org/activity/

It occurred after the last cbox update. I updated WordPress at the same time. I also had to remove several sub-items from the menu as they were getting lost behind the slider and content body.

I have used firebug and changed the z-index on some elements, but it doesn’t work when adding it to the custom css box in the cbox dashboard. I like the stock cbox theme and wasn’t wanting to set up a child theme for this one problem unless it was absolutely necessary.

Thanks, adding my site to the showcase would be great. It is a mostly stock cbox theme with no child and very little custom CSS. https://earthcointalk.org

Hi James –

Thanks for reporting this and providing the necessary detail.  I have opened up a ticket on GitHub for the dev team to investigate.  You can track its progress here: https://github.com/cuny-academic-commons/cbox-theme/issues/210

I was able to join your site and see exactly what you are describing.  It does seem like some kind of z-index issue.

Again – thanks!

[James]

Thanks for looking into it.

Hi James – Looks like Christian Wach – @haystack – has posted a pull request on github to address this issue.  Thanks Christian!
