The latest version (1.3) of the Twenty Eleven theme has changed the “z-index” of the header.
Edit the branding style in “style.css” as follows (can edit it via WordPress admin – “Appearance -> Editor”:
#branding {
border-top: 2px solid #bbb;
padding-bottom: 10px;
position: relative;
z-index: 9999;
}
to:
#branding {
border-top: 2px solid #bbb;
padding-bottom: 10px;
position: relative;
z-index: 999;
}
To get NextGen working again.
Note that this will be overridden if you upgrade the theme again so consider creating a child theme for this fix. Also I can’t guarantee this change won’t break something else, I’m no Twenty Eleven expert.
