I can’t find any information on the web about this and am at a loss.

The theme developer said I could try removing the esc_url() function from the clients_block.php file so that just $url is added to the page, which would remove an abstraction layer that may help here, but that this would open you up to data injection should your site ever be compromised. So that’s not a good solution.

Any suggestions please?

I’ve converted the URL’s to shortcodes for the moment but it’s obviously not a good solution.

I’ve left the fifth one along on the page which still demonstrates the problem.

Thanks for replying but in the end I decided to abandon the idea and use a workaround.
Thank you.

Thanks for your reply!!

I don’t have access to my files via FTP (long story) but I’ve asked my host to check. Hope it’s something that simple!!

Thank you!

I’m wondering if the code I copied and pasted it into functions.php to make the slider progress automatically might be causing the problem. It works… but now I’m thinking it’s missing a ?> tag after the last </script>. Am I right? As I’ve broken my site before by making mistakes in functions.php, and I don’t have direct access to the server files, I’m nervous to make changes. I’d be very grateful if someone would have a look at the following code and advise:

<?php
if ( ! isset( $content_width ) ) {
	$content_width = 474;
}
/**
 *DD MAKE FEATURED IMAGES SLIDE
 */
function add_script_in_footer(){
?>
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
    jQuery(document).ready(function(){
        var change_every = 3; // The number of seconds that the slider will auto-advance in
        var current = 1;
        function auto_advance(){
            if(current == -1) return false;
            jQuery('#featured-content .slider-next').eq(current % jQuery('#featured-content .slider-next').length).trigger('click', [true]);
            current++;
        };
        setInterval(function(){auto_advance()}, change_every * 1000);
    });
</script>

<?php

I haven’t found a solution to this. Any suggestions – Please?

Would I have more chance of this being replied to if I posted in the general Themes and Templates forum? Is there a paid support option for Twenty Fourteen?

I’ve paid for a workaround to stop the slider displaying on mobile devices, but I would really like to address the problem.

Please, could someone suggest why the slider causes display problems on mobile devices?

Failing an answer to that, could anyone suggest some code which would stop the slider displaying on mobile devices?

Thank you.

I’ve got it working. It was evidently a clash with my child theme.css.

But I can’t get the Post title to display on top of the slider pics as it does in this demo:

PLEASE could someone advise:

Thank you for your reply.

That is what I did….. Except that the modification already existed in the parent header.php and I made an exact copy of the modified header.php and put it in the child folder. Could the duplication of the modification be the problem?

This is the site:

https://www.photomobil.co.il/

Currently using the child theme but the parent header.

When the site is not likely to be busy I’ll try again with a clean file in the parent folder.

Thank you.

On further investigation – the copy of the footer.php in the child theme is fine. It’s just the copy of header.php which messes up the theme. All I am wanting to do is add google analytics to the header so I could just upgrade and add it to the new header. But I would very much like to know the proper way of adding a modified header.php file to a child theme.

I don’t know if this is what caused your problem but it’s worth looking into. I found a small boutique server here in Israel who promised me he would not block the site when the spikes occurred but would help me get to the bottom of it. An angel indeed. It turned out the spikes occurred when brute attacks were made to log in from China. He installed a plugin called iQ Block Country and blocked logins from China as I have no business with China, and this solved the problem. Hope you can get to the bottom of it. I had spent weeks taking down plugins, and doing all sorts of stuff that it turned out were unrelated.

I still haven’t been able to resolve this and would really appreciate some help.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Yikes! I think it would be easier to close the site!!!
