Search bar drop down menu to overlay on top of section below.

[rugousa]

Hello Fellow Shopify neighbors, I encountered a problem but I can not seem to find helpful resources.

One problem with my page is that drop down menu for search bar is obscured by a section layer below. I tried many different method such as editing z-values but failed.

Could you help me ?

My website is rugousa.com and you will see the search bar at the main page.

Hi @rugousa

Please add this code to Custom CSS of that slideshow section to solve your issue.

.overflow-hidden {
  overflow: visible;
}

I have few css files that might be related to the search bar. I have assets/predictive-search.css which has about 200 lines. I added the custom css snippet you provided to me and want to apply to the running website. I am very new to Shopify and its .liquid files so I have no idea where to test the setting. would you help me?

I will give you the assets/predictive-search.css:

predictive-search[open] .overlay {
  z-index: 30;

}
predictive-search[open] .search__form {
  z-index: 32;
}
predictive-search[open] .search__input {
  background-color: rgba(var(--bg-color));
  box-shadow: inset 0 0 0 1px rgb(var(--text-color));
}
.header predictive-search[open] .search__input {

Hi @rugousa

Please go to your store admin > Sale channels > Online Store > Themes > Customize, select Slideshow, and add code to Custom CSS. Do not add code to that file because it will affect other sections.

[rugousa]

I added the custom CSS as you told me to but still would not solve the issue.

From what I know, I need to apply

.overflow-hidden {
  overflow: visible;
}

this to

...

by adding class name to this div. But I am not sure where to perform modifying code.

Because I am not a web design/css/html expert, I might me wrong but correct me if I am.
