Widget Hero Image Covers Drop Down Menu

Hi!

When I added the SiteOrigin Hero Header, it covers the drop down menu.

I tried adjusting the widget class
.author { z-index: -999999999999999; }

but nothing

website here:

25th Anniversary Campaign

When you scroll over ‘Our work’, it gets buried beneath the Hero

    Hi Michael

    Do you have a public URL where we can take a look at what’s going on? If you need to keep this URL private from other users, just select “Private Reply” on the bottom right of the comment box.

    Hi Andrew, I am sitting with the same problem. I can only think that it has something to do with the z-index or possibly position: absolute? The URL in question is http://seventhstar.co.za/services/ but I am hoping to implement it site wide. If you could provide any guidance that would be great! Thank you so much.

    Hi Andrew (and everyone else),

    I went into the code and played around – found the solution. It isn’t the z-index of the Hero Header that is the problem, it is the z-index of the Nav-Bar. My advice is to go to appearance > custom CSS (Assuming you have Site Origin’s custom CSS plugin) and look for the outer most Nav div.

    Once selected, give the z-index property a high positive value. For example, my code looks like this:

    .tempo-header {
      z-index: 10000000 !important;
    }

    Please keep in mind that each theme is going to be different so you will need to play around and find the id selector for your Nav-Bar.

    Andrew, I have attempted to explain this as best I can – I know I understand it as I have a good understanding of CSS and HTML however if you could find an easier way to explain it to less code knowledgable people and post it here I believe you could close this thread. Hope this helps.

    Happy developing!

    Hey Joshua, thanks so much for sharing. The nature of z-index means that this will, unfortunately, differ from theme to theme. Your explanation is spot on. All the best, appreciate the effort. Cheers :)
