Hello Team,

I really want to update Elements to V3 but if I do so, my whole website layout jumped out.. I am on version 2.4.1 atm..

Thanks for helping!

Kind regards,

Mike

Elements was upgraded from Tailwind 3 to Tailwind 4, so you might have some outdated code that needs fixing up. Should be easy to fix though.

Are you using a custom theme or custom code?

Ohhh ok, I’ll fix this tomorrow then, hmm I have some custom code like a cookie/privacy consent for my visitors and a ‘‘call me’’ button. But I will check this . Ohhh btw! You should give @differentdan a raise! He is always kind and very helpful.

I’m guessing something is squiffy with your custom code.

Try removing your custom code and see if that fixes the issue… let me know how you get on.

Squiffy eh? I just learned a new word!

If you have applied ‘absolute’ positioning to some elements in your layout, you will now need to apply ‘relative’ positioning to their parent element. This should resolve that type of issue.

Hi @dan,

Deleting my custom code isn’t helping

Can I send you my project for feedback?

Is the mess created by pictures which doesn‘t respect the size? If yes then select a picture and assign the size to it again - even it already has a size assigned.

Maybe it would help to show some screenshots.
