I was able to fix the Category Dropdown problem by altering the ai1ec CSS. I added a
z-index: 10to .ai1ec-filter-selector-container, and removed theoverflow: autofrom .ai1ic-filter-selector. That fixed the Category drop down, but I was still left with several other issues in IE that were fixed with the Meta tag and I undid the changes to the CSS.In case anyone else runs into this, I’ve found the cause of this issue and what seems to be a suitable workaround. My issue was that IE9 was loading my calendar in Compatibility Mode by default (I’m not really sure why, perhaps some code it found on the page). The solution was to add a meta tag to my theme’s header to tell IE to use 9,8, and 7 versions before compatibility mode as suggested in this article.
Here is the tag I used: <meta http-equiv=”X-UA-Compatible” content=”IE=9; IE=8; IE=7; IE=EDGE” />
All seems to be working now.
Hi Sauril,
Thanks for looking at this issue. I’ve actually got another thread going on with this issue here. I’ve put up details and screenshots there.Thanks,
TomitHi Richard,
Thanks for the response. As per your instructions, I deactivated all the other plugins and changed the theme to the stock 2011 theme, all to no avail. I failed to mention in my first post that I am using IE 9, but I’ve confirmed that the stacking issues are occurring on a different machine with IE8.Here are some screenshots of what is happening with all of the plugins disabled and the theme set to 2011. Notice how some of the popup is garbled with an adjacent calendar event. It might be helpful to note that this issue only seems to occur top down or left to right, by which I mean that if I hovered over the event on the Thursday, the popup would appear correctly to the left over the top of a Tuesday item. Hopefully that makes sense.

Thanks for your help. I’m hopeful that we can get this figured out because the plugin works so well and looks great in all the other browsers.
Thanks,
TomitFor me, this issue was caused by having /%category%/ in my permalink structure. Once I took it out, the problem was solved.
I was having the same issue. The problem is in Permalink settings. It seems that the plugin in question doesn’t play well with the category permalink tag (perhaps because dynamically created posts don’t have a category?). Try removing /%category%/ from your custom permalink structure or set it to one of the presets. This worked for me.
