GreenTreeLabs on "[Plugin: Gallery Final Tiles Grid] Buggy - Captions, caption icon and Background not showing"

The Captions and background was working, but once I activated the social sharing links, the links were working without the caption and background. I then tried deactivating the social links again and nothing worked (the captions w/fade background didn't reappear).

I tried deactivating the few plugins I'm using, but it behaved the same.
I'm using a blank, from scatch, theme.

your Smart grid gallery demo works fine when I view it, but mine is not functioning the same. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks

currently, when I hover over the images only the white social links appear without captions and background (opacity #000 8).

i uncheck 'caption frame' and the captions show up now with the background the exact size of caption on the bottom of the image. (not covering full picture thumbnail)
the caption icon still not showing up.

Hi I really should see the site to understand what's going on, can you write the URL?

I'm viewing it in firefox.

ok i think the css is all screwy.

I changed 'top' from 'auto' to '0' and the whole background shows up, but still no icon.

.final-tiles-gallery.caption-auto-height .caption { bottom: 0; height: auto !important; top: auto !important;
}

do you think your css is messed up? or is it just interfering with something on my end?

Ok I see you have disabled the "full height" caption, so the captions take the minimum height needed to show the inner text.
So just enable the "Full height" option, it should solve the issue.
