Support Forum
I know this is an issue that pops up (yah) frequently in conjunction with other plugins and themes. I've searched the forums but couldn't find a solution for my particular case.
I've recently installed a new theme. It's highly configurable and I've already invested lots of hours into setting it up the way I need it hence simply finding a new theme is rather out of the question. However, all forum pop-ups ceased working. I know this must be a JS conflict. I checked the code and the theme does not appear to load any external jquery, all links are internal. Firebug shows no errors when I click on on a forum tool, so have no debug info to post. The forum itself is members only thus I would need to provide credentials to have someone take a look, which I am happy to do. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Hey Thorsten B,
It looks like some elements of your WP theme have some pretty aggressive z-indexes!
First of all, if you haven't already you will want to make a child theme, if for nothing else just to preserve the new z-index value you'll need to add.
So, you only need to edit the main stylesheet in your child theme (defualt-child.css) and you will want to add the rule:
.ui-dialog { z-index: 99999; }
Normally you wouldn't need this high a value, but 9999 still left your admin toolbar above the popup - so may as well put the max on.
Hope that helps!
