1) Load any URL to the blog, e.g. https://blog.wikimedia.org/ 2) Press page down I. Observed: nothing happens. II. Expected: the page scrolls down. 3) Click some block of text (but not one covered by JavaScript slideshows), or on the white side. 4) Press page down III. Observed: works. Verified in Firefox and Chromium.
Thanks, looking into it. (For our internal reference: Filed as https://wordpressvip.zendesk.com/requests/33251 )
FYI, according to our support at Automattic, the problem appear to be caused by the CSS/layout of our theme, specifically the block from style.css (http://ur1.ca/i85b2 ) reproduced below. According to the, when one removes that block, scrolling works as expected, although of course the layout is broken. It's not yet clear how to fix it though, so this will need to be worked on later, unless someone can provide a solution here (Moiz, any immediate insights?). -- /* block */ .shell { width:942px; margin:0 auto; position:relative; } /* absolute wrapper required for panel behaviour on mobile devices */ .page-wrapper { position:absolute; left:0; top:0; width:100%; height:100%; overflow-x:hidden; overflow-y:scroll; z-index: 2; background-color:#fff; -webkit-overflow-scrolling: touch; } .page-sidebar { position:absolute; left:-250px; top:0; height:100%; width:250px; overflow-x:hidden; overflow-y:auto; -webkit-overflow-scrolling: touch; z-index: 1;} .page-header { position:relative; z-index: 5; } .page-main { padding:22px 0 30px; width:100%; position:relative; z-index: 1; } .page-footer { background:#3a3a3a url(images/page-footer.png) repeat-x; padding:75px 0 50px; color:#666; font-size:14px; line-height:22px; width:100%; } .content { float:left; width:570px; } .sidebar { float:right; width:340px; }
