Plots2: Improper css formatting of 'Ask a question' suggestions

Created on 14 Dec 2018  路  6Comments  路  Source: publiclab/plots2

Problem: The suggestions appear to be out of the parent element. I think this is a responsiveness issue, because on adjusting the width of the viewport, the issue ceases to exist.

Fix: I think removing the 'width' attribute entirely from the #questions_searchform .dropdown-menu would fix this.

Also, I think maybe we should mark this as a first-timers-only issue.

@rexagod you can proceed and yes, you can use the suggestion given by @sashadev-sky about limiting the char length. Thanks @sashadev-sky !

@publiclab/reviewers Please review this.

@rexagod good find! That idea does fix the issue of the text going outside of the dropdown, but it creates a new one where the dropdown stretches as far as the text goes:

Maybe we could impose a maximum number of characters on the question preview and add a "..." at the end? Let me know what you think!

Hey I think I can fix this. Can I work on it?

Yeah sure

@rexagod you can proceed and yes, you can use the suggestion given by @sashadev-sky about limiting the char length. Thanks @sashadev-sky !
