    This is driving me crazy. I am trying to get a logo to stack over the menu. Link to site. I created two widget areas for the header. One is for the log and has a z-index of 9999. The navigation area (.nav-primary) has a z-index of 2 but the logo still stacks behind it. I've tried adding z-index to everything I could but nothing works

    Have you tried a negative margin?

    yes, I've tried everything that I can think of. For some reason, the blue background from the nav-primary will not go behind the logo no matter how I set the z-index.

    One thing to keep in mind when you're using z-index is that the element with z-index must have positioning to work. Most of the time you can just add position: relative to make it work.

    On your site, the stacking order looks correct now, but your .logo div needs background-color: #fff if you don't want the navigation bar to show through.

    You are a lifesaver. Thank you! I would have never figured that out. I knew I had the stacking order correct but couldn't determine why the logo was getting cut off. Thanks again.
