    Hello and again love, love, love Enfold.
    I have a new customer that wants us to rebuild his Square site on WordPress.
    I have got the new site started but on this page – https://www.zebgrantdesign.com/services there are 1/2 columns but they have staggering overlaps on each section where the column with the pic overlaps over into the other behind the other.
    Any ideas how to reproduce this effect.
    Thanks again for any help you can give us.
    Take care,
    Cheers
    Chris

    Hey Madison,

    Thank you for the inquiry.

    Using the Advanced Layout Builder (ALB), try inserting a 4/5 and 1/5 column element. Place an Image element inside the 4/5 column and the text in the 1/5 column. Edit the smaller 1/5 column, go to the Advanced > Developer Settings panel, and in the Custom CSS Class field, enter the name av-overlap-right-text. Then add the following code in the Quick CSS field:

    #top .av-overlap-right-text {
        width: 50%;
        position: absolute;
        right: 0;
        top: 30%;
        background: white;
        padding: 20px 40px;
    }
    

    The css code should adjust the width of the 1/5 column and its position so that it overlaps with the 4/5 column. To position the overlapping column on the left, reverse the order of the columns, replace the class name with av-overlap-left-text, and then add the following css code:

    #top .av-overlap-left-text {
        width: 50%;
        position: absolute;
        left: 0;
        top: 30%;
        background: white;
        padding: 20px 40px;
        z-index: 2;
    }
    
    #top .av-overlap-left-text + .flex_column {
        margin-left: 20%;
    }
    

    Best regards,
    Ismael

    Wow – thanks for the speedy response!! I followed the directions (as far as I know) set the columns to Equal Height and MIDDLE used the css you supplied. It looks real close on the top row – the second column is not as tall as the live website we are trying to recreate but the second row didn’t work – I am sure I did something wrong.

    https://zebgrant.mswebhosting.net/services/ is our new WordPress/Enfold
    https://www.zebgrantdesign.com/services is the live Square site

    can you tell what I did wrong? Sorry to have to ask for more help.
    Take care and thanks in advance,
    Chris

    I think I figured it out. I rebuilt instead of cloning the first row on the second and it got rid of the issue.
    thanks again!!
