The Old Man Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 When I click on the Theme menu, it often opens below the footer/page as opposed to above itself. It does it with the default theme as well as custom themes. Is it a bug or determined in some way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teraßyte Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 It opens above for me, and there's also a rule to make it open above in the default template: <a href='#elNavTheme_menu' id='elNavTheme' data-ipsMenu data-ipsMenu-above>{lang='skin'} <i class='fa fa-caret-down'></i></a> As you can see it uses the attribute data-ipsMenu-above. Are you missing that attribute, or maybe you have it set to below instead? The Old Man 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Stridgen Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 It opens above for me also. What browser are you using? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Old Man Posted September 13, 2023 Author Share Posted September 13, 2023 Thanks TB, the attributes are there alright. I just compared and its fine on a desktop, the screenshots I took were on an iPad Just now, Marc Stridgen said: It opens above for me also. What browser are you using? Thanks, it was Safari on the latest ipadOS. On my iPad, it is fine with Firefox app too. Weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solution Ehren Posted September 14, 2023 Solution Share Posted September 14, 2023 I believe this happens when the dropdown menu is taller than your viewport (browser window). I imagine this is done intentionally because browsers can't scroll "above the viewport", they can only scroll below the viewport. Imagine if your theme menu was only 900px from the top of your screen (which could happen on certain pages), but the dropdown menu was 1200px in height. If it opened upwards, the top of the menu wouldn't be clickable since it would go above your screen. Not really a bug, but this will only happen in situations when your theme menu is really tall, so this is technically working as intended 🙂 The Old Man 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
