Forms with dropdown selection formatting not working correctly

zentoolsIf you use Zentools please post a review at the Joomla! Extensions Directory.

Hello,

I've been using Ascent 2 for my theme but can't use it until I figure out why when using a form the drop down menu is hidden behind the existing framework. Using protostar and everything works again.

In particular I'm using Easy Profile to enter user profile information with dropdown selection items.

Thanks for any tips on how to get this resolved.

Hi MC,

Do you have a link for the site?

Yes but it's currently in protostar and you need to be registered user to get to the section. How can I get you a user name to log in? In the meantime I'll move it back to Ascent2.

Thanks,

MC

Edit: It has been switched back to Ascent2. demo.wgsoccer.com

If you need the site to stay secure and not viewable on a public forum you would need to create a ticket for the site

No problem. I've created a temp user name and pwd for login:

username: paulus03
pwd: joomla

Please login and go to the Club Member Menu (sidebar 2) and User Profile.

Then try and select a User Type. Hopefully you will see my issue.

Thank you!

Hi MC,

Try adding

#member-profile .control-group {z-index: auto;}

hmmm this doesn't work on the basic settings

Does that look alright in protostar as well?

Paul,

Everything works fine in protostar which leads me to something with Ascent.

I can add that code -- I'm assuming it goes into the template's custom css file?

Please advise.

Thanks,

MC

Edit: Looks like I have a custom.css file already. I don't recall adding anything to it but it's there. Here are the contents:

table {
border-collapse: collapse;
border-spacing: 0;
border: 1px solid #bbb;
}
td,th {
border-top: 1px solid #ddd;
padding: 4px 8px;
}

tbody tr:nth-child(even) td { background-color: #eee; }

@media screen and (max-width: 640px) {
table {
overflow-x: auto;
display: block;
}
}

/* Gradient color1 - color2 - color1 */

hr {
border: 0;
height: 1px;
background: #333;
background-image: linear-gradient(to right, #ccc, #333, #ccc);
}

Paul,

I added your recommended line of code in the custom.css file and it seems to have worked!

I'll leave the demo user up so that you can verify it (if you are interested.)

Thank you for the help. That was going to be an issue as mundane as it was.

Thanks!
