Hello.

Some plugins which use a menu icon that is too large are breaking the admin side menu.

Please add overflow:hidden to...

#adminmenu div.wp-menu-image {

float: left;
width: 36px;
height: 34px;
margin: 0;
text-align: center;

}

See attachments.

Shows the fixed code.

Or restrict image size to show the image.

Before...

#adminmenu .wp-menu-image img {

padding: 9px 0 0;
opacity: .6;

}

After...

#adminmenu .wp-menu-image img {

padding: 9px 0 0;
opacity: .6;
max-width: 20px;

}

Can you share what plugin is generating this problem? It seems very plausible that this is something that can be dealt with in core, but we would benefit a lot from being able to test the example case that creates the problem.

Hi.

It's "WooCommerce AJAX Products Filter" by BeRocket.

In the past, all my tickets/issues which try to get images in this place fixed or regulated in some way, are either ignored or closed immediately.
​https://github.com/WordPress/wporg-plugin-guidelines/issues/71
​https://github.com/WordPress/plugin-check/issues/788

To paraphrase the outcome of the discussion:
If a plugin dev wants to shoot in their foot, it is their decision. We are not here to fix this.

Therefore, I recommend closing this ticket as wontfix.

@damndealdone I know you just want to help fix an issue and I don't want to be unwelcoming (the opposite would be true!), but my experience of the past discussion leads me to this conclusion ...
