Editor Screen Toolbar inconsistent styling and toolbar floats over content area

Event Espresso Version: Version 5.0.3.p
PHP: 7.4
Hosting: WP Engine
Theme: Custom, verified on default Twenty Twenty-Three with all plugins disabled.

We are having issues with some of the styling in the latest version(s) of Event Espresso. A lot of the text is not formatted and the toolbar currently scrolls down in a fixed manner and covers the content area.

The Advanced Editor Tools buttons by Automatic are styled in a manner that is difficult to read.

With the additional toolbars this can cover a large majority of the content editor making it difficult to work in.

Thanks!
Jon

Us too. The whole thing is HUGE…VERY VERY frustrating. We can’t even see some of the tools because the styling is so crazy. Is there anything that can be done here? I have elderly clients using this took and changes in general freak them out – they are having a cow over the updates. Any chance we can get the css from an earlier version?

What browser and operating system(s) are you using? I’d recommend testing another browser such as Chrome or Firefox.

We are also working on a way for you to change the font size of the admin to your liking.

There’s several people on different machines/browsers… I’m on Edge. The other gal I spoke with today was on Chrome. I can send you a screenshot/video… but I need some time…

Sure, send us a video. If you can show us the videos on different browsers that’d be helpful. This is what it looks like for me using Chrome 112

@scaldwell What media folder organizer plugin are you using that you refer to in the video? What happens if you disable that media organizer plugin and try again?

This is what it looks like for me to add content to the event description from the media library (not media organizer): https://www.screencast.com/t/UOuKEbUsT

@orionweb In your first screenshot, the formatting buttons are following down the page until it gets toward the bottom of the content area. I think that’s by design so the buttons are easier to access while editing long posts when the buttons are way up the page when you’re at the bottom of the page. Maybe try not scrolling quite so far down.

The Advanced Editor Tools buttons that you are showing in your second screen shot: File, Edit, View, Insert, Format, Tools, Table, etc. I can reproduce that the buttons are not formatted well. We will file this with the developers to look into.
