 * Hi I can’t seem to get the page to scroll once the edit button is pressed. The
   backend iframe scrolls fine but the frontend area being edited doesn’t scroll
   down at all so you cant see what you are editing making it impossible to see 
   your edits unless you close the toggled backend.
 * The issues is caused by the plugin css disabling scroll on the frontend I’m not
   exactly sure what the reason for this is. But for anyone else frustrated with
   this issue here’s what I did if you don’t want to edit the main plugin:
 *     ```
       function fix_live_edit_overflow_hidden() {
       ?>
       <style type="text/css">
       html.live-edit-active {
           overflow: scroll!important;
       }
       </style>
       <?php
       }
       add_action('wp_head', 'fix_live_edit_overflow_hidden');
       ```
   
 * Would be cool if were responsive. Maybe that’s what’s suppose to happen, not 
   sure exactly…
 * Anyone else have issues with this?
