Modal only displays correctly when the plugin is loaded in a certain order.

Whenever the loading order changes, like when there is an update the display of the modal breaks until I move the loading order....this is not a viable solution.

Check out this Loom video to see the problem in action:

The ordering of the plugins (once set) should not change when updating extensions.
Looks like you have issues on you site.
This has nothing to do with Modals itself.

Sorry, but it does change. I just updated YOOtheme Pro (as there was no update for Modals right now) and the order changed and the modal no longer displays correctly. I did NOTHING but click update in the back end.

So either Yootheme is changing orderings on update, or - like I mentioned - something is wrong with your setup.

Turns out the solution appears to be easy...I set the ordering of the Modals system plugin to -First- and that seems to solve it.

Either way, IMO the order that plugins load should not have such a negative effect on the site regardless who wrote them.
