Comment (by abcd95):
Hello!
Here are the places that I investigated and confirmed no fix needed:**
- `common.css` line 4244 — `.wp-filter .button.drawer-toggle { height:
28px }` in tablet media query: This is dead CSS. `min-height: 40px` from
`buttons.css` mobile base already wins, rendering the element at exactly
40px. No change required.
- `list-tables.css` line 1908 — `.view-switch a` at 36px: Parent is
`display: none` on mobile. Not visible to users.
- `customize-widgets.css` — `.widget-reorder-nav span`: This is in a
desktop compact media query (`min-width: 783px and max-width: 1100px`),
not the mobile breakpoint. Out of scope.
found soem dead CSS also -
- `edit.css:1883` — `.post-format-options a div`: No PHP/JS generates this
markup
- `edit.css:1976` — `.wp_themeSkin a.mceButton`: Legacy TinyMCE 3.x
selector; WordPress uses TinyMCE 4.x
I am not sure regarding this place -
https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/src/wp-admin/css/customize-
controls.css#L2890
Do we need to update this too?
