Avada Column Overlap Fails to Overlay

, , , ,

This article serves as a reminder-to-self regarding a recent display issue I had on one of my WordPress sites with the Avada child theme.

Within the Avada theme for WordPress you can set the padding to be a negative number so that two columns or containers overlap. This generates a nice effect.

However, after updating Avada to 7.15.3 I discovered a new option under the Performance menu (see screenshot) called: Optimize Offscreen Rendering

Turning the Optimize Offscreen Rendering on prevented the overlay from appearing despite my having adjusted the Z Index options.

No doubt they’ll have it fixed in an upcoming release, for now I’ll just leave it turned off.

I also received the following warning on the backend of WordPress.

Troubleshooting the issues revealed that it may have been attributed to the SVG upload feature within the Avada theme.

I managed to clear up the issues by simply disabling and enabling the SVG upload feature. See instructions below.
