Studiofolio theme Embedded video inside an “inline-block” element not working

    I have a blog post on wordpress at https://streetlevelculture.com/2013/11/03/work-4/ (scroll down, ignore the weird layout, I’ve removed all custom CSS for troubleshooting).

    The blogpost has a custom made slider, very simple image gallery of few divs inside eachother with a scrollbar. At the bottom of the page, where the slider is, there’s supposed to be a vimeo video in the slider inside the “inner” div right after the gif, however it is invisible. The problem is that (at least what I was able to see) any video embedded inside the div with display:inline-block rule on it simply won’t display (applies both to iframe, plugins and shortcodes). Videos embedded outside of the inline-block element works as they should.

    This seems to be occurring only on this particular theme, but as theme authors don’t support any kind of custom modifications, and I failed to find anything on google, I’m asking for help here. Is there any kind of solution to this bug and where should I look, or alternatively a work-around, keeping the slider functionality/look but avoiding inline-block?

    Looks like the issue is down to the relative positioning on this:

    .fluid-width-video-wrapper

    And the absolute positioning on this:

    .fluid-width-video-wrapper iframe

    but as theme authors don’t support any kind of custom modifications

    It sucks that your theme’s authors won’t support this, but you’re still using their product. Have you considered ditching it? Your theme’s vendors have chosen not to distribute their theme on www.ads-software.com and it’s not our place to support it.

    www.ads-software.com’s support can’t live up to professional expectations, but we do try to provide support for all themes that are distributed on www.ads-software.com, even if someone wants to modify them. Here are www.ads-software.com’s supported themes https://www.ads-software.com/themes/

    Hi Andrew,

    Thank you for pointing me in the right direction, removing absolute positioning at least displays the video, even if it completely ignores the set iframe size. I have a feeling I’m gonna have quite a lot of troubles getting the size and placement fixed on this video, which will probably result in very ugly hacks :/

    I understand regarding www.ads-software.com support, and greatly appreciate any help. I’d love to ditch the theme, but it is one of the few that fitted my needs of a very simple theme with vertical menu. If you have any suggestions, I’d gladly consider switching!
