AI-generated summary
Users reported that the ‘Powered by Discourse’ footer overlaps dropdown menus on the /review/settings page when using the Horizon theme typed-sigterm. The issue was confirmed to be theme-related, as it does not occur in safe mode typed-sigterm. The root cause was traced to the footer’s high z-index (400), which was originally set to override the experimental-screen element (z-index 399) chapoi. Lowering the experimental element’s z-index to 1 and the footer’s to 2 was tested and resolved the overlap jordan.vidrine. The fix has been merged via GitHub PR #36692 chapoi.

Could you try it in safe mode to see if it’s limited to the horizon theme?
And could you be more specific about which page this is on. I can’t quite work out what it is from the screenshot.
Ah, I think it might be the settings in the review queue.

@jordan.vidrine The powered-by was given a z-index of 400, which is too high and interfering as you can see, but it was needed to be that high to top the experimental-screen styling, which had a z-index of 399…
Without it, you get this effect:
Can you take a look at possible solutions?
Is it an option to lower the experimental element to 1, and the powered-by to 2?

Where are you seeing this @chapoi? On meta this is not happening.
Hmm, that was locally. What is your screenshot showing exactly?
Meta, I’ll have to take a look at a couple other situations
I tried this locally this morning and it does seem to address the issue you show here.
This should be fixed now – thanks.
