The .ui-dialog class in your SP theme css file (default.php) requires a z-index of at least 1.

This is actually the opposite of all other sites we have encountered since WordPress 3.9 where we have had to recommend people remove the z-index completely. I have to admit I am stumped as to why your WP/WP theme/SP should be different. But hey - that is one of the things we all love about WordPress... every site is unique!

So - it depends which theme you prefer to customise. You could probably put this in your WordPres theme:

.ui-dialog { z-index: 1; }

or just add the z-index to the SP theme where you will find an entry already in place for this class.

The good news is that 5.5 of SP will introduce child themes making customisation a lot safer from updates.

The mobile sliding panel (#spMainContainer #spMobilePanel) already has a z-index of 99999 which is huge so I am surprised that anything can show up over the top of that!

Try adding a couple of extra 9's...

where would I find that? or is that something I can just add to my wp-theme custom css?

Well... if you change the SP theme then you are using 'Unified' for mobiles so it is the same as 'default' except in the Unified folder and named unified.php.

If you change it in your WP theme styles.css file then as before - just add it and see.

is this the correct way I would add it to my custom css?

#spMainContainer #spMobilePanel { z-index: 10000000000 !important; }

Yes - give that a try.

To be honest I am not sure what the maximum z-index value can be but I believe you have gone way beyond it there so interested to hear if that solves it.
