zp drop down covers gallery link on Bootstrap

The Zp menu (which provides quick access for admin and logout) covers up the gallery link on Bootstrap.Is there a plugin that is enabling this feature. It seems like it should be disabled for mobile themes as it often covers up features at the top right of mobile pages.

    The zp menu which is called admin toolbox btw is added automatically if you are loggedin. So no normal visitor will never see it.

    It is added to the "'theme_body_close'" filter automatically. It formerly was a function to add manually but was changed some time ago since it is part of the backend actually. It cannot directly be disabled but you can use the function `zp_remove_filter()` to disable it if you want. Might be possible to hide it via theme css as well.
  • That is what I would expect, but I still get the zp"username" overlay (upper right) when I am logged in as user, also. So it is covering up an important link to the 'Gallery' when using Bootstrap theme, when using mobile, as a user.

    In /css/bootstrap.css you can add
    `
    #zp__admin_module {
    display:none;
    }
    `
    You can also enable the `show_not_logged-in` plugin

    Both options will however hide the admin-toolbox permanently.
  • I have tried using not logged in plug-in, but then I am unable to log in as a user.

    I will try the CSS solution. I would call this a bug. That overlay in the upper right corner overrides all themes and when using any mobile theme potentially covers up part of the user interface.

    I am developing a website for a small charity and trying to eliminate as much admin responsibility as possible for them in the future. Having to alter CSS and HTML on every upgrade of ZP makes it less user friendly for admin that has few coding skills.
  • Thanks, the CSS solution works.

    It also can interfere with the close button on Colorbox fullscreen image, on a PC or laptop, especially if the user happens to resize the browser window. I think an option to remove this from the UI should be available.

    It's really not a bug as it is meant to be outside of themes. Hiding by default on smaller screens IMHO is not an option.

    Updates of Zenphoto have nothing to do with this actually. If any update will cause the need of redoing this it is the theme update. A custom theme needs manual maintainance anyway. There are ways to solve this:
    • The theme can still override the placement or hide it via CSS, even on certain screen sizes/breakpoints. It would be the task of a theme author to add that if his theme conflicts with this.
    • You can create a plugin to do this theme independent
    It is surely not possible to solve this for all possible theme ways but we may have an idea so this works better for all. Keep an eye on the support build or wait for the next release.
