Ok, hold on because I have no idea if I can explain this in an easy way!
I have a gallery space in Stockholm. When there is an exhibition running, I want to show the exhibition poster. When there is no exhibition, I want to show a slideshow of the space, along with an announcement of the next exhibition. Please see photos.
âHome - Present Exhibitionâ has a higher Z-value so it overrides âHome - Future Exhibition Announcementâ.
When âHome - Present Exhibitionâ is on, there is no problem. I see the poster, and I guess âHome - Future Exhibition Announcementâ is underneath, covered by the poster design.
BUT, when I turn off âHome - Present Exhibitionâ, so âHome - Future Exhibition Announcementâ becomes visible, I get the two messages that you can see. (Not sure why the two messages are alternating.)
When I press the Eye symbol to make âHome - Present Exhibitionâ go away, then the messages disappear as well.
No items found generally relates to a collection list which contains no results. You can edit and hide that state-specific message, but it sounds like you have some other complexities as well. Would be good to see the site itself.
That worked perfect! Thank you so much! Videos are the way to go; so easy to follow.
It unveiled another problem Even though âHome - Present Exhibitionâ is not active, and I see âHome - Future Exhibition Announcementâ, somehow âHome - Present Exhibitionâ is blocking âHome - Future Exhibition Announcementâ's menu and clickable logo. I know this because if I change âHome - Future Exhibition Announcementâ's Z-value to be the highest, then the menu and the logo are both clickable. Same goes if I activate the eye-symbol for âHome - Present Exhibitionâ.
Might you have the answer for that too?
(PS I tried to upload a film sequence but what format do you use? I saved in all formats I can come up with)
Canât guess enough about your site design or goals without really digging in, but both of your DIVs are set to position fixed, full screen.
Present Exhibition is on top ( z-index 20, v. 10 )
Even if the collection list is empty, the div encapsulates it, so it will still exist and still be on top.
You could put that div inside of the collection list possibly, so that itâs conditional with the content. If you do that, Iâd set the collection list to Limit items = 1 just be certain you never have a weird competition situation with multiple current exhibitions.
I ended up having to rebuild quite a lot. I think the approach to bulk a lot of functions into the same Collection Lists and Div Boxes was the problem, so I made a solution where they had as few functions as possible. It doesnât look as tidy but might be a bit more pedagogical, on top of actually working now
But I had good use of your âhiddenâ-advice. Thanks so much again!
