 * after updating the sparkling theme to the latest version I have problems with
   bootstrap modals. It will show a black screen on opening the modal. The modal-
   open class is not attached to the body tag and maybe there is an issue with z-
   index.
 * Before it worked fine with sparkling-theme.

 * Hi [@guidonhcolcombr](https://wordpress.org/support/users/guidonhcolcombr/),
 * Sorry to hear of the problem you are having.
 * Are you using any plugin to display the Bootstrap modal?
 * Could you please share me the page URL from your site where it is not displaying
   correctly so that i can troubleshoot it?

 * I am not using any plugin but the standard bootstrap js built in Bootstrap3.
 * To exclude any css or js error I made a fresh clean WP installation with the 
   SparklingTheme and added the standard bootstrap modal html markup from here [https://www.w3schools.com/bootstrap/bootstrap_modal.asp](https://www.w3schools.com/bootstrap/bootstrap_modal.asp)
 * The WP Test site: [http://sparklingtest.dev2.space/modal-test/](http://sparklingtest.dev2.space/modal-test/)
 * You can see that the modal is disappearing behind a black screen. An error which
   not occurred which Sparkling version 2.3.2.

 * I could confirm the issue on my test site therefore notified the theme developer
   about this here [https://github.com/puikinsh/Sparkling/issues/207](https://github.com/puikinsh/Sparkling/issues/207)
   so that it will be fixed.
 * The issue will be fixed ASAP.

 * I have the same symptoms on Sparkling 2.3.5 – the modal appears over a black 
   screen and cannot be dismissed. FYI, it works fine with the Dazzling theme.
 * I see this may be addressed in 2.4.0. Any ETA for that release?
 * Thanks!
