• There are a couple of things going on with AADP’s website and I am not sure if it’s the server or the WP codes/widgets or whatever not. I did update everything (plug-ins and WP 3.3.1). I can’t seem to understand what’s wrong and i need someone to help me fix the problems (I am spending way too much time trying to figure out what went wrong):

    1) AADP’s website front page: the image slider is blocking (hiding) the drop menus. I tried removing the image and that did not work.

    2) Errors on AADP’s home kit requests page and descriptions are not complete. I tried fixing these too, nothing has changed.

    Thanks for helping.

  • If you’re just trying to remove the slider:

    .thethe_image_slider.white-rounded {
     display: none;
    }

    Otherwise we’d need to know more about it,
    Is the slider a plugin or part of the theme?
    what theme are you using?
    any custom codes used?
    What, if anything, has changed recently that could have caused it? or has it always been this way?

    Thank you so much for replying! Our webmaster is no longer working for us and i am left to pick up the pieces…i am not too WP savvy.

    I am not trying to remove the slider, rather, i am trying bring the slider “back” so that the drop down menu from the tabs at the top are not hidden and seen in front of the image.
    The slider is a plug-in, TheTheFly (ImageSlider), and it was working just fine until today.

    I updated all the plug-ins today, which may have caused the underlying problem?

    absolutely, it’s a new bug somewhere, I’d bet on it. What exactly did you update? and did you try disabling and or reverting? You may have to do something temporarily to deal with it untill the code
    authors figure it out.
    Also concider that some of the code may have been custom, as added by your original web master. updateing it may have over written essential custom code.

    I will try your advice and see if it helps.

    Thanks so much for your prompt replies! Greatly appreciated.

    One more thing…how to i revert?

    Find the previous versioons of what ever you updated. if not from back up then re download / re-install.

    First try de activating all plugins except the slider, follow standard process of elimination to root out the culprit.

    Go into your dashboard and on the left hand side open up Appearance and then click on Editor. On the right hand side of the screen, look for thethe-image-slider.css link and click that.

    Once that page loads with the code look for

    .thethe_image_slider {
    	position:relative;
    	clear: both;
    	overflow: hidden;
    	margin:0 auto;
    }

    and add in “z-index: -999;” so that the new block of code looks like

    .thethe_image_slider {
    	position:relative;
    	clear: both;
    	overflow: hidden;
    	margin:0 auto;
    	z-index: -999;
    }

    that should fix the slider blocking your menu dropdowns.

    NOTE It would be better to include the z-index fix in a different stylesheet as this will get overwritten when you upgrade the slider plugin again. Although looking at your code it doesn’t look like you are using a child theme which means when a Thematic update is released it could wipe out that code as well.

    Either way, when you do another upgrade you may have to reapply the z-index fix to get it working again.

    As far as the Home Kit page and missing descriptions I am not quite sure what you mean.
