Description
First i would like to say this module seems just awsome, if we could rate modules id give thisone a 10+ :)
Truly useful for community sites!
I tested the latest dev version with genesis based them and the feedback form is always expanded covering half the screen. Does anyone have an idea of a solution!
If not then would it be possible to ad an option to display a link to the feedback form instead of the expandable box?

Confirmed that this is an issue.

Sorry, there are too many themes in the wild. Feedback supports all stock themes in Drupal core. Any other theme, custom or not, might need further tweaks to work as expected. I have lost too much time with similar issues regarding Zen* themes already.

Feedback js relies on the .content class being added to the div wrapper around the $block->content, so supporting this is just a matter of copy/pasting the default block.tpl.php template that comes with your theme and adding content class to that wrapper.
Call the new template suggestion "block-feedback.tpl.php", then add the "content" class as shown below, upload and clear the cache in performance settings.
<div class="block-content content"><?php print $block->content ?></div>Genesis and a few other themes use the class "block-content" rather than just content, so this will be a fix for a number of themes.
@sun, dont be shy to shift issues over to my queue for theme specific questions, its no problem;)

I have a patch for this somewhere laying around...

Using a custom theme and my feedback is displayed as a standard text area field at the bottom of the page, somehow it isnt finding the css or javascript properly I think (with my limited knowledge).
As suggested I created a new block-feedback.tpl.php with the
<div class="block-content content"><?php print $block->content ?></div>code added, but assume I need to call this new file into action but I dont know how.
I also modified the block.tpl.php with
<div class="block-content content"><?php print $block->content ?></div>but that didnt fix it for me.
Did anyone have any suggestions please? It is a great module for less experienced site users to be easily able to feedback about a page and I would love to use it.
Cheers.

Clear cache data on the performance settings page, then Drupal will pick up the new template.
#7
Yes I did that and could see my menu alignment altered slightly so I assumed it had taken effect. I have caching mode disabled while I am developing the site.
Thanks for the suggestion, did you have any more for me to try please?

Just to clarify, don't add a
contentclass to the outerdivin the fileblock-feedback.tpl.php. Instead, wrap$block->contentin an entirely newdiv.My
block-feedback.tpl.phpfile started out looking something like this:<div id="block-<?php print $block->module .'-'. $block->delta; ?>" class="widget block block-<?php print $block->module ?>"><?php if ($block->subject): ?>
<h3><?php print $block->subject ?></h3>
<?php endif;?>
<?php print $block->content ?>
<div class="widgetbottom"></div>
</div><!-- /widget -->
Ended up like this:
<div id="block-<?php print $block->module .'-'. $block->delta; ?>" class="widget block block-<?php print $block->module ?>"><?php if ($block->subject): ?>
<h3><?php print $block->subject ?></h3>
<?php endif;?>
<div class="content"> <!-- New line -->
<?php print $block->content ?>
</div> <!-- New line -->
<div class="widgetbottom"></div>
</div><!-- /widget -->
The additions are marked
<!-- New line -->.Hope this helps.
