My admin menu keeps randomly showing up at the bottom of the page. Any ideas why?

enter image description here

EDIT: I've continued to pay attention to the behavior.. and it appears to only happen when there is a "message" displayed at the top (in the green box).

  • Super weird... does it only happen when you are in the admin section? Commented Aug 10, 2012 at 21:02
  • I think so.. it's intermittent so it is difficult to test. Commented Aug 10, 2012 at 21:34
  • I have seen similar weirdness, but haven't come to any conclusions. I am fairly convinced it is a race condition in the admin menu JS.

  • What is the frequency of this phenomenon considering average usage? I'm curious what happens if you utilize the overlay instead. Commented Aug 11, 2012 at 15:50

Drupal core 7.16 with Omgea 7x-3.1 theme and loads of modules. Just experienced the similar behavior where admin menu was locked at bottom of the page. Read through this, decided to not touch Skinr and instead:

Home » Administration » Configuration » Administration

Turn of the "Adjust top margin", save, clear cache, turn on "Adjust top margin" AND "Keep menu at top of page" - this solved the problem in my case.

I think this CSS might take care of the problem:

/* to fix admin menu at bottom of page - http://drupal.org/node/1588158 */

body.contextual-links-region { position:static; }

It seems to be caused by CSS position set to relative for the body element. See http://drupal.org/node/1588158#comment-6180760

I had this problem myself, and notice that also, disabling the Skinr UI module - not Skinr itself - fixes the problem.

the quickest and cleaner way to fix this is to edit the views page and set HIDE CONTEXTUAL LINKS to YES.
