1083274 - Clicking on articles in sidebar does nothing

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Websites :: The Open Standard, defect)

Description

[Paul [:pmac] McLanahan]

STR:

1. Be on an article page.
2. Open sidebar by clicking hamburger menu in top left corner.
3. Click an article in the sidebar.

Expected: To go to clicked article.

Actual: Nothing happens.

I tested in Fx Nightly and latest Safari. It appears that the overlay is blocking access to the sidebar content on article pages. The sidebar works from the home page.

On Fx 33 when I click an article in the sidebar it collapses the sidebar.

Additional info.

This looks to be caused by the comments template

> single.php line 85: <?php comments_template(); ?>

Commenting that out and the nav works.

This looks to be fixed on many posts however I can still find a couple where this is occuring:

The odd thing is.. if i am logged in as an admin it works, log out does not work.

I think it has something to do with the LEFT arrow that appears on some posts.

Im gonna call this one resolved for now. I think this may have been a cache issue (Wordpress cache).

If it creeps up again I shall re-open.
