SharePoint 2013 Enterprise Wiki Bugs

Trying to use the SharePoint 2013 Enterprise wiki's and I've encountered a couple of bugs. 

1.  The Page Rating and Categories right column will display over the top of page content if the window isn't wide enough to accomodate both.  This happens in all browsers when there is an image in the wiki page like the screenshot below illustrates. 


2. When you click on a Category you are brought to the System Category page (_layouts/15/Categories.aspx), this page displays all pages which have that tag.  The problem is the list of pages start displaying underneath the left nav.  This can become especially problematic if you are using metadata navigation in your wiki:

Hi,

According to your post, my understanding is that you tried to use the SharePoint 2013 Enterprise wiki's and you had encountered a couple of abnormal phenomena.

This can be worked around by using CSS code to resize the window and change the page layout.

We will help to submit the issue to proper pipeline for you, and keep you updated with the issue.

Again, thank you for your report which will definitely make SharePoint a better products. There might be some time delay.  Appreciate your time and patience. Thank you for your understanding and support.

Best Regards, 

Linda Li

For #1, I don't believe the issue can be fixed through css.  If you change the right nav display property so it won't display on top of the content, it just gets pushed to the bottom of the page below the content.  I believe the issue might have to do with SharePoint just sizing the display based on the window porportions instead of also looking at the min-width of the content as well. 

For #2, I get a little nervous about fixing this display with css since this is a _layouts page which means that I can't modify the page to create page specific classes or id's, nor can I just add the css fix just to this page only (it can't be edited).  So instead I have to do a global css fix using the existing div id's in the page, which might break a different pages display that uses the same div id. 

I'm going to test a global css change and see if that will work though, I'm hoping the following div id is unique to this page:
 
#ctl00_PlaceHolderMain_pagesPanel {
float: right; padding-bottom: 20px; width: 100%;
}

I'll update this post to reflect if we find that this css change breaks any other page display. 

Thanks.

#2  :  I'd really like an answer to this bug as well.  We actually thought the category display was broken because it never returned any results, then we realised that our left-hand navigation was long enough to force the results off the bottom of the page.

It's incredible that issue #2 still hasn't been resolved by now!
