Issue with Menus (top level)

[RSDancey]

I have installed BlueSpice Free 4.4.1 (build:20240209132702)
This was installed on top of an existing MediaWiki installation (1.39.6)

We are using the BlueSpice Discovery 4.4.1 skin

I am viewing the Wiki with a variety of browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari) on MacOS Sonoma 14.3.1; all browsers exhibit the same issue.

The issues are related to the menus displayed when clicking the gear icon or the personal icon.

The menus items are arranged horizontally, not vertically, meaning that they scroll off the right side of the browser window instead of being stacked on top of each other.

Hi!

A few questions:

• What screen resolution do you use?
• Do you maybe have a zoom factor enabled in the browser?
• Are there maybe CSS formatting rules on the page “MedaWiki:Common.css” that may collide with the skin? See also Manual:Interface/Stylesheets - MediaWiki

[RSDancey]

I have two monitors. One is 1080x1920 the other is 3440x1440

No zoom on any browser

The the best of my knowledge we have never touched the Common.css file. Is there anything in particular in that file that relates to how the menus are formatted I should double-check?

[RSDancey]

In a possibly related note, the Login link seems really really small. Can anyone confirm if this is displaying correctly or if it is also misformatted?

[rvogel]

No, it should look like this:

You say

This was installed on top of an existing MediaWiki installation (1.39.6)

Maybe there is some other extension interfering with the styles. Can you please share the list of extensions/skins from Special:Version?

[RSDancey]

Yes, I have a massive number of things installed

I have no manually activated Extensions; all of this is turned on by either BlueSpice or some other configuration setting outside of LocalSettings.php

Still trying to fix this issue. I upgraded to BlueSpice free 4.4.2; issue unresolved

When I tail error_log, I see these entries:

It appears that some of the PHP being called in bluespicediscovery was deprecated in MediaWiki 1.39. Could this be causing this problem?
