Compatibility issue with another plugin

    Hello, and thanks for a great plugin! ?? I have one issue though. Your plugin seems to be in conflict with another plugin I use, Menu Icons: https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/menu-icons/. I really like both of these plugins, and can’t find a good replacement for either, so it would be great if the issue could be solved. So, here’s a description of the problem. When either Menu Icons or Better Admin Help Tabs are activated alone, there is no problem. But when both are activated together the problem appears. Then, go to Appearence > Menus and expand any menu item. The link “add icon” belonging to Menu Icons has grown in height and is now about 20 cm tall creating a huge amount of white space beneath the link text. At first i thought the rest of the options for the menu item was completely gone, but they are not… they’re just located about a pages height down. This would probably be some CSS-conflict, dont you think?
    I’ve already posted about this issue in the support section of the other plugin also.

    Well, I am very sorry, but I can’t reproduce it on any of my setups. I have tried in several browsers and in both Mac and PC. There must be something unique to your setup. I would recommend trying on another computer and browser just to see if it is happening there.

    No problems.. I am not pro or against anything.. I just know my boss.. And he uses IE because that is what’s pre-installed on his system. ?? Anyway I just tried in Chrome and the problem is the same.

    … or maybe not. If that’s awkward. And I can understand why. Anyway.. The problem persists. I will report if I can find out why.

    at this point, I would recommend logging in from a completely separate computer and seeing if the problem still exists. If it does, it is definitely something in your particular WP config.

    Ok, I am not sure if this is a problem with the CSS in admin.min.css of Menu Icons, or if there are other CSS rules, that are particular to my setup, that also compounds into creating this weird behaviour.

    But, anyway.. here is what I found. This rule in admin.min.css of Menu Icons:

    .menu-icons-wrap .easy p > * {
    display: inline-block;
    height: 100%;
    vertical-align: middle;
    }

    … creates the problem for me. If I remove either display: inline-block or height: 100%, it works. But these two settings together creates the problem.

    … but why Better Admin Help Tabs is involved in this (for me that is), I have not a clue..

    Anyway, I dont want to create a lot of fuzz about something that seems to only be a problem for me! I will just override this rule with my own CSS and be gone with the problem. ?? Thank you both for your time!

    You are very welcome. Glad you figured out a workaround.
