Boardwalk: Action Bar does not show when Boardwalk theme is active #1886

Open lakellie opened 4 years ago

User reported in 2827205-zen. Replicated on my own test site where I confirmed the action bar was showing on my current theme (Twenty Twenty); then switched to Boardwalk theme and the action bar disappeared.

@lakellie This issue can be fixed by adding the following custom CSS to the site:

div#actionbar.actnbr-pub-boardwalk {
    display: initial;
    bottom: 60px;
}

As the Boardwalk is not part of this repository, it's not possible to address this issue directly within the theme.

Just as a note, I'm pretty sure the action bar was intentionally hidden on Boardwalk when it was first launched years ago because it covered up the social-media icons at the bottom right.

Correct

@kathrynwp I don't understand why the actionbar hasn't been moved up a bit up back then. Hiding the actionbar and removing useful functionality does not seem best practice to me here. 🤔

@nielslange It was a decision made by its developer at the time. The theme is old. :)
