[EE4] Pop-up error messages displaying behind menu bar

Hi,

On my theme (Canvas from Woothemes), when there are pop-up messages warning or informing the user about something, they often appear behind the main menu for the screen.

Is there any way to reposition these or tune where they pop up? (I’d prefer the center of the window).

Here’s a screen shot to illustrate….

Hi Paul,

Your screenshot didn’t post.

I seem to have problems using the tags (above the edit window) when posting issues. Why don’t they work?

Anyway, here’s the link to the screen shot…

Hi Paul,

That’s from the menu having a higher z-index value than our error messages. This is usually set with CSS.

You can try copying this code into your child theme’s stylesheet and tweak away to change the defaults. If you increase the z-index value that will make it appear before the menu:

#content #espresso-notices,
#content #espresso-ajax-notices {
	position: absolute;
	min-width: 240px;
	width: 800px;
	max-width: 90%;
	text-align: center;
	left: 50%;
	margin-left:-320px;
	z-index: 5;
        top: 50%;

}
