Text Overlapping Profile in Messages

[itsdreamy]

I only have this issue in the inbox messages: the text/message its overlapping on top of the user's profile. Everywhere else it looks correct. I have reset the layout templates for conversations and and posting page (as that's the only spot I can figure is where I messed up) but even after resetting the layout the issue is still present, only in messages. Please help, I've been struggling for a while now. This issue is on a buddy's test site, so I'm not sure if I'll be able to share the link.

I am using Google Chrome.

Unfortunately, a picture can only serve to convey the issue but can contribute nothing to diagnosing it.

The underlying coding (not just the templates but all the stylesheets rules) would be where to look. Most browsers nowadays come equipped with built-in developer tools so you could right-click the overlapping message area then inspect it in order to examine the rules that apply to it or its immediate ancestors looking specifically for anything that may inadvertently be taking it out of the normal flow and creating a separate stacking context.

Is it just that specific message from Proboards you are having the issue with or is it all PMs? That particular PM from Proboards dated February 2021 employs some nested divs with an invisible 1X1 beacon in the content that might be triggering a match to some unrelated CSS rule on the forum.
