FIle list display issue with v. 3.9.9?

Hi, this effect happened when I update my theme to the latest version (Nexus themes). Rolling back to the previous version fixed this.

Sorry for the ticket, it’s not your plugin’s fault!

Thanks.
Peter

nope problem ??

Hi, to follow-up on this I have contacted the Nexus Themes support and they directed me back to you saying:
“It would not be very practical for us to have to update the manual CSS each time we update the theme or when the plugin is updated. The proper way would be if the plugin would control their own styling. I would like to ask you to contact the plugin author to think of a solution since they control the output of their plugin.”

Do you have any suggestions as to custom CSS to make this work? Right now I have this code in there to prevent the sub-menus from being hidden by the file name containers. Changing the overflow parameters did not help, except for “scroll” which was not practical due to the small size of the windows:

.mdocs-container td
{
overflow: inherit !important;
}

Any help would be welcome.

the problem is both mine and their but I won’t pass the buck like the theme author did to you. My guess is that we are both using the same class called “btn-group” which has its own rules for each plugin and theme.

there “btn-group” class must display everything by default where as mine hides everything by default.

Unfortunately there is not much I can do other than stop using the call btn-group but that is tied to bootstrap and without that class name the dropdown menus won’t work.

I would role back to the old version of Nexus for now and have a look at that class. See if we are both using that class.

Thanks I’ll give them this info, see what happens…

Hi, they suggested that I remove all custom CSS code from the site. I did that and now I’m back to the original issue of the drop down menus hiding behind the file names:

I did not find any references to btn-groups in any CSS files on the theme.

Help?
Peter

your screen cap didn’t work can you take it again so I can see what the issue is.

Still sounds like a css conflict.

is your site public?

Hi, here it is again – https://prntscr.com/laduf1

What happens is that the all files list has all the submenus open, but the overflow is hidden behind the file names. Just a thin white edge shows.

The page is private but let me see if I can create a page on the dev site to let you access it. I’ll send you the link shortly.

Okay i’ve found the 2 issue, and just for the record it is your theme that is causing the problems. They are using global setting for certain html components the first one is one tables which is causing the dropdown to hide:

#nxs-container table th,
#nxs-container table td,
.nxs-datepicker th 											

{ color: #333333; text-shadow: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.8) 0 1px 0; /* overflow: hidden; */ text-align: left; line-height: 36px; font-size: 15px; }

the key in that line is overflow: hidden

the second is the ul component:

.nxs-text ul, 
.nxs-text ol 												

{ margin: 0 0 16px 25px; /* display: inline-block; */ }

the key in this style is the display: inline-block

removing those to elements from the style sheet made everything work fine.
