Reactions Display Conflict

This plugin worked well when I was running the standard embed friendly skin. My developer integrated Vanilla into my site using a variation of the embed friendly skin. Now there's some conflict with the reactions. If you try to click one of the reactions, you get other parts of my site overlaid all over the place. See attachment.

My developer is working on solving it and thinks it has something to do with a missing function. Any clues what may be wrong?

I'm running Vanilla 2.12b: http://www.djangobooks.com/forum/

Thanks!

    post a zip of your entire variation of the theme. and i could look, otherwise I'm just guessing.

    when creating plugin,I basically tested with a number of popular themes and fefault themes and it worked. so, I am not sure where your issue is.

    Reactions are pretty tightly integrated with html elements if you try to move them or change the elements within the reaction bar, you are kind of on your own.

    I may not provide the completed solution you might desire, but I do try to provide honest suggestions to help you solve your issue.

  • I attached the theme....

    it's close to the embed theme in many ways, but I'm not sure what sort of things my developed did to make it work on my site. Any clues as to what is wrong are much appreciated....

  • I need a zip please.

  • here it is

  • fairly difficult to test your theme it has lots of other stuff - e.g. remote skin retrieval via curl, as well as other things. I am limited to testing locally.

    after clicking a reaction

    when you have the kryptonic theme enabled and reactions not enabled
    does layout look ok

    when you have the default embed theme enabled and reactions enabled
    does layout look ok.

    when you have the kryptonic theme enabled and reactions enabled
    does layout look ok.

    how about after you disable the other plugins (e.g. tagging) and leave reactions plugins enabled - do you still have a problem?

    There are no other display problems. It's only when I click a reaction that this happens.

    when you have the default embed theme enabled and reactions enabled
    does layout look ok.

    No problems using the default theme with the reactions.

    when you have the kryptonic theme enabled and reactions enabled
    does layout look ok.

    There are no other display issues regardless of the the reactions status.

    how about after you disable the other plugins (e.g. tagging) and leave reactions plugins enabled - do you still have a problem?

    I haven't gone through all of them....I'll do some experimenting. I know tagging isn't a problem, but may some other plugin is causing a problem.

    for what its worth.

    I removed the kryptonic smarttags and it worked fine. So something in the what it loads is creating the conflict if you tested your kryptonic theme with the only plugin enabled in the dashboard was peregrine reactions and still have a problem with clicking. The way the theme is created is not the conventional way I've ever seen themes done. And it is pretty difficult to test on a local machine with the curl calls. He also created some smarty functions. So the problem lies there or the load of extra stuff that conflicts with js of the reactions or the element tags.

    attached is a file with what i did, but it removes probably everything you wanted.

    So, in summary, not much help I can provide sorry.

  • @peregrine thanks so much for looking at it. I'll see if we can make it all work.

  • My developer got it working...it had something to do with href being used in the theme.

  • glad you were able to adjust your theme to work with the plugin.
