 * Some more errors: Submitted message notices options above or below don’t work(
   always below), and also bad positioning (out of the screen), with or without 
   fixed navbar.
 * (Using GeneratePress theme and latest versions of the plugin and WP).

 * Hey there, [@promostudio](https://wordpress.org/support/users/promostudio/) 👋
 * Oh no, sorry to hear that! We tried this using GeneratePress theme just now and
   notices position setting works fine on our end.
 * Just a little heads-up — this setting only changes the position of general notice,
   i.e. the one that appears above after submitting the form. It doesn’t change 
   position of error notices related to each part if that’s what you’re after. Could
   that be the case?
 * Would you mind uploading the screenshot of wrong notice positioning somewhere
   or email us at [support@thethemefoundry.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/message-notice-errors/support@thethemefoundry.com?output_format=md)?
   We’d love to take a closer look!
 * Have a great weekend! 🙂

 * Hello!
 * No, I refer to the submitted ok message (the general notice), this container:.
   happyforms-message-notices.
 * I am testing about 100 submissions ;-), and the “screenshot” is:
 * – When option above: it scrolls to top but partially out of view if we have the
   WP admin bar (not very important), or totally out of view if we have a fixed 
   top navbar (very important). (I know the difficult is calculate this heights 
   with javascript).
 * – When option below: also scrolls to top and leaves notice totally out of view.
 * —–
    Other bug: Chrome browser (not tested in others) does not autocomplete email
   field (I think this is important).
 * Thank you!

 * Thanks for the details, [@promostudio](https://wordpress.org/support/users/promostudio/)!
 * After poking around a bit, we can replicate odd behavior with scrolling on form
   submission. We’ll be sure to fix that up in a future release. Thanks for reporting
   that! 👍
 * As it turns out, autocompletion of email address behaves like that by design.
   Since all inputs have unique names for increased reliability and avoiding conflicts,
   browsers can’t autocomplete value previously submitted through other forms most
   of the time.
 * Let us know if we can help with anything else! 🙂

 * I think autocomplete is important, it’s a pity, other plugins do it.

 * Hello! Testing again latest version, the below message notice continues in bad
   position when there are fixed elements at the top (the wpadmin navbar or a theme
   fixed navbar). In javascript scroll you need to give more margin at top!

 * Hey again, [@promostudio](https://wordpress.org/support/users/promostudio/)!
 * There’s no way for HappyForms to precisely detect your message notice position
   when fixed elements are in place (it will always be slightly off, depending on
   your fixed elements layout). But we added a filter to let you manually tweak 
   that! Try popping this in your `functions.php`:
 *     ```
       function make_child_form_attributes( $attrs ) {
       	$attrs['data-happyforms-scroll-offset'] = -100;
   
       	return $attrs;
       }
   
       add_filter( 'happyforms_get_form_attributes', 'make_child_form_attributes' );
       ```
   
 * You’ll want to play with the -100 value so it matches your layout.
 * Let us know how that goes!
