sorry, what are you doing??  the post preview doesnt show in a popup, so not sure how you are getting that…

do you have the post preview plugin?

I click on the button to the right of the box in the graphic you see saying ‘topics with unread posts’

regards

Paul

oh, lol… that’s not post preview in our terminology… post preview is when you write a new post and then preview it to see what it looks like before publishing the post…   you mean the unread posts..

so could perhaps be a z-index issue with the popup dialog… do you have a link to an example so we can check the css on your site?

OK,

I didn’t know that sorry. It was working fine for many months. www.howtonetwork.com but it’s members only.

yeah, cant tell much with no access…  what version did you upgrade from?

worth checking these:  https://simple-press.com/documentation/codex/installation/changes/

I can get access for you if you have details.

I didn’t change anything and I haven’t upgraded recently, one day it worked and the next it didn’t.

I looked at the links but not being a coder I’ve no clue.

just started happening?  something had to change… wp theme? wp plugins?  sp theme or plugins?

anyways, yes, access would be nice to inspect the css…  please pm some temp credentials to Ike, yellow swordfish and myself…  one of us will take a look… and please link back to this topic so we know what its about…

I PM’d the logins yesterday.

Your site is throwing multiple errors per page… seems to have some mixed http and https content…  so you are throwing multiple errors of the form:

Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource at xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx. This can be fixed by moving the resource to the same domain or enabling CORS.

I changed the actual url to a bunch of xxxx…

So are you trying to do something with SSL? or were  you at some point?  mixed content on a page causes problems… In this case, the link on your site to the unread popup stuff is https, but the main page is http…

you also have other things (like Facebook) throwing errors for mixed content…

I’m not a programmer. I don’t understand a single word you wrote there so can you tell me in non-technical terms. I can then get a programmer to check into it.

To be totally honest with you if you gave any decent web programmer the post Steve made above then they should be able to follow it OK. That’s about as close to plain English, without losing sight of the issues, that it can be!

And tell them that if in doubt – load up pages and popups using the web and script console which will show them the details they need to check up on.

I fixed it by adding the forum to be served as HTTPS but this wasn’t an issue beforehand so don’t know why it appeared.

Paul

that should prevent the mixed content   glad its resolved… thanks for the update!
