    Hello.

    I have a problem with the shortcode editor as of lately. It has been working great on my blog for years and I’m not quite sure when the glitch appeared (I hadn’t posted a recipe since March). When I hit the button to add a recipe to a regular post, if I chose “ordered by date added” or “ordered by title” it will not let me select an option. There seems to be no drop-down menu when I click the little arrow on the right side of the recipe or template box and it won’t let me type in the box to retrive a title or date either. It basically creates a generic shorcode, without the id number, which I currently input manually (to quickly troubleshoot). Any ideas as to what might be happening?

    Sounds like a CSS conflict. Probably with another plugin or your theme.

    Try disabling all other plugins for a second and see if it works then.
    If not, try switching to a default theme (like Twenty Seventeen) and check again.

    Yep, got it! It is indeed another plugin. So now that I know what it is–and excuse the stupid question–do I resolve this with you, or with them? Is there anything one can do in instances like this or do we have to “sacrifice” a plugin for another?

    What plugin is it? I can do some testing tomorrow.

    Thank you very much. It seems to be in the Content Aware Sidebars by intox studio.

    You could try adding the following CSS to the WordPress admin using custom code or a plugin like Add Admin CSS:

    .select2-container {
        z-index: 999999 !important;
        background: white;
        max-width: 300px;
        border: 1px solid #999;
    }

    This is definitely not perfect but should at least get the dropdown functional again.
