Loading slides

  • Hi,

    first of all, great plugin, the Meta Slider.

    One thing is disturbing: I have a slide show in the header of my blog. I enter the URL of my blog in the browser window and the blog will be loaded. But first of all some slides are being loaded in stacked order for a fraction of a second and shown on the screen. Then the blog will be shown.

    How can I avoid this issue?

    Have a nice evening.

    Regards

    Thobie

    Hi, Matcha Labs,

    https://www.nudelheissundhos.de.

    Perhaps it is a bug only in Firefox on a mac desktop computer. The foodblog is correctly loaded in Safari on the mac desktop computer and in Safari on an iPad.

    I wish you a nice day.

    Hi Thobie,

    On most page loads the images are displayed without stacking, though I did see it once.

    Does the same thing happen if you use another slider type i.e. Flex Slider? Also it might be worth reducing the number of slides if possible to speed up the load time?

    Thanks,
    Dave

    Hi Dave,

    I now can reproduce the issue in Safari on the iPad. It doesn’t depends on the device or the browser.

    Reducing the number of slides is not possible. In the future there still will be added more slides.

    I now have choosen the flex slider instead of the nivo slider. It works fine. But in my opinion the animation for the fading in nivo slider is a bit “finer”.

    I wish you a nice day.

    Regards

    Hey I’m having a similar issue, it’s like a FOUC, there are no images at start and then the images flash stacked, mostly when you use hyperlink to the main page from another.

    I was successful to cover up this issue with a page loader plugin, but it still renders a problem with animation, as the elements of it appear in the viewport and then are moved away. I’d love to see how this issue can be removed.

    The preview works: Yes
    It works with other themes: Haven’t Tried (Vantage supports and advertises Meta Slider tho)
    It works when I disable all other plugins: No
    Meta Slider version: 2.1.1

    @themire Per the forum welcome can you please start your own topic?

    It’s considered to be impolite taking over someone else’s problem that way.

    Sorry, if that’s considered impolite, but as the forum suggests searching for the topic with the problem before posting own one, I thought that joining in a dead for 6 days thread would spark some progress. It’s the same issue after all and people searching for it could participate as well.

    General rule is contain-one-thread-per-issue instead of generating numerous threads that need same care, thus making tech support do the unnecessary work.
    However, it’s your call, you can delete my messages as I will go on with my own thread.
