When you go into an article to edit it, the menu overlaps into the editor.

Please go into an article (edit mode) and see what I mean. The problem will appear when the Left and Right module areas are used.

Thank you

Is this problem happening to anyone else? Please note that the problem happens in both IE and Firefox.

I’d imagine the solution might involve manipulating the Z-index of the editing window to a lower value than the z-index used in the col1 col2 elements.

I haven’t had a chance to play around with this template yet – so that’s just a guess. 😉

Thanks for responding, other templates automatically shift the modules further to the right when editing or adding an article.

Hopefully this problem will be addressed.

Try editing in the admin, or installing another editor, or use Firefox. If it is indeed a z-index problem you will never get it to work in IE. Sorry didn’t see that it also hapens in FF. Try the other suggestions.

I sort of wish it worked right out of the box like other template do. But I do appreciate your suggestions though.

Best Regards,

Jeff

Hi,
You could try editing the z-index in the css for the editor to 999 or 1000. But if the containing css (the container that holds the content) is positioned relativley it will not work (in IE anyway). It will probably work on FF though if you do that. I have struggled with this template for a couple of weeks and I am not a noob. I had problems with the z-index myself. It’s not really JAs fault though. It’s Micro$oft’s fault.
If you visit my site (the photoshop one) in IE you will see that I had to shrink the logo to fit in the header, but if you visit my site in FF you will see the correct way it should display with the camera over the slideshow. But beyond that, there are issues with sef urls, and the list goes on and on. If I was you, I would just move on to one of the other templates that are not so difficult to modify.
Whatever you choose to do, good luck.

Hi. Yes, I’ve had exactly the same problem when using the default editor TinyMCE 2.0. I did not want to change editors (with all the downloading and testing that is involved). By trial and error I found this rather quirky work-around:

1. It would help to reduce the width of the front-end editor window, however TinyMCE ignores your parameter setting to change the width of the display
2. You can get TinyMCE to obey your width settings IF you move the toolbar display to the bottom of the text area. A bit annoying but it works.:
– go to the plugin manager and edit the TinyMCE editor settings. Click on Advanced Parameters and change Toolbar to “Bottom” and change HTML width to 450.

Hope this gets you out of trouble!
