Does this work on the dashboard?

Hi there,

I’m not sure if this would be useful, as the editor already has some sort of ‘sticky’ functionality (when you scroll down, the top buttons of the editing box stays in place). You can enable this by going to “Screen Options” (top right of the editing screen) and select “Enable full-height editor and distraction-free functionality.”

I’m working with a theme by elegant themes that wouldn’t be supported by the community, so I don’t want to get into specifics of the theme. However Their post editor is in a modal window so that solution wouldn’t work

I’m not sure how much of a generic situation this is to warrant an additional change in the plugin, and I don’t really know which theme you’re referring to so I can’t check it myself. The plugin is suited for all free/public themes, and supporting commercial themes is usually a bi tricky.

I’d be willing to give it a look though, but since the editor is in a modal window as you say, it may be difficult, if it’s very different from general WordPress standards.

Yeah I hear you loud and clear on that. It’s the Divi theme, and I could give you the latest theme files if you’d like to check it out. It is indeed premium, so it goes against everything that is “dot org”, but it’s one of the top themes so I’m sure there would be some crossover users.

Here’s a copy of the latest theme file. Someone please let me know if I need to delete this link. It’ll probably be out of my dropbox in a day or two anyway… [link removed by moderator]

Also, semi-related, I am using this modification to the modal window via functions.php to make the modal window bigger. Perhaps this would get you started in the right direction:

// ET-PAGEBUILDER CSS Changes
add_action( 'admin_head', 'admin_custom_css' );
function admin_custom_css() {
echo '<style type="text/css">
.et_pb_modal_settings_container { top: 4%!important; left: 37%!important; bottom: 15%!important; width: 75%!important; height: 95%!important; }
</style>';
}

Hi Mike,

Yeah, please delete the ZIP file linked above — it’s premium indeed so I don’t think it’s right to post it online for everyone to grab for free. ??

I have a licensed copy of the Divi theme myself, so I can use that to see if there’s a way of doing this.

The file is no longer available at that link. Strange, I thought we used to be able to edit comments on here, did they get rid of that?

Anyway, it’d be great if you can think of a solution for this but if not I understand why it wouldn’t be worth it to you.
