Describe the issue

The modal dialog when you Search for and find a podcast on a PC browser is normally too big to fit in a window, at least for everything except my biggest monitor, and lacks scrollbars, and cannot be mouse-scrolled. The only way to subscribe is to tab through the entries until the dialog scrolls on its own, or according to #494 by shrinking the text size to reach the button.

Suggest adding a scrollbar? Or being a bit more responsive to the actual display size?

The fix in the above-mentioned issue seems to have worked for it, but doesn't seem to be a general fix.

I also checked on a mobile browser, and the UI elements seem to be rearranged to all fit on screen, so you clearly have some responsive-design code in there.

Steps to reproduce the issue

  1. Begin on a laptop PC or some other not-absolutely-huge screen that's not a mobile browser.
  2. Search for a podcast. Select it so that the subscription modal pops up.
  3. Confirm that if you cannot see the green button, it is not possible to scroll the dialogue to see it -- you have to tab until the dialogue scrolls.

Audiobookshelf version

2.1.5

How are you running audiobookshelf?

Docker
