Hi Guys,
I’m working on my site for quite some time now and have to say, that X is really great.
But for a few days I have a problem with Revolution Slider. Whatever I do the slide won’t fade out. It fades in as it should but stays visible no matter what.
This feature worked fine until a few days ago.

Help is really appreciated.

Thanks Benny

Hi There,

Thanks for writing in! Since you already using the latest version of Cornerstone, please update the X|Theme to latest version as well (4.1.0. as of this writing) to make sure that this is not an compatibility issue.

You also need to update the Revolution Slider to the latest version (5.0.6). Keep in mind that this is an major update of Revolution Slider, if something about revslider is not working after the update please follow this post.

Hope it helps, Cheers!

Thanks for the quick reply.
If I update X-Theme I’m concerned that I will lose all my customizations. I did a few html and php changes and honestly I do not recognize where and what I changed.
Is there any possibility to keep everything working after the update?
Thanks again

Hi there,

Did you modify files inside child theme? If so they are safe in there, but if you’ve modified X’s core files you should know updating overwrites core files and you need to find and save modified files before updating X and upload them to your child theme.

Thanks.

The update solved the problem!
Thanks again!

Now I have another question I hope you can help me with. I’m almost happy with the looks of my navbar.
But if you re size the screen or look at it from a tablet in landscape mode the menu buttons go right under the logo if they touch it instead of collapsing to the mobile menu.
I added custom CSS that should do the trick but nothing changed.

Can you help me to force the navbar stay in one line and if the screen is too small collapse to the mobile menu.
Thank you! Your support is awesome!

Hi There,

Reducing just the padding is not enough to fit the menu bar and logo on the tablet screen width, so we need to adjust the menu text size instead on those specific width.

You can add this under Custom > CSS in the Customizer.

@media (min-width:  980px) and (max-width: 1050px) {
	.x-navbar .desktop .x-nav > li > a > span {font-size: 90%;}
}

Hope it helps, Cheers!

Hey Guys,
sorry to bother you again but I’ve two problems left.
1. I’ve added a video layer to my slider and it works perfectly in chrome and safari. In Firefox I can’t get the video to load. Every time I try, Firefox is showing the background image.
Internet Explorer or Microsoft Edge is playing the video but won’t play It in full screen. Is there a way to fix this?

2. The Video is set to loop but there is always a little pause when the browser is repeating the video. Is there a way to get a smooth loop?

Thanks for your great support.

Hi there,

1. About the video on firefox, it plays well on my end. What version and OS you’re currently testing it on?

2. It’s normal for a video layer, instead of a video background. What you could do is add your video as a background with poster image like from here https://theme.co/x/member/forums/topic/integrity-09-demo-home-page-appears-to-not-have-loaded-properly/#post-173779 (Next we need to Setup the Video Background on the page).

Thanks!

Hi,
The Firefox Bug is weird. My System is Windows 10 and Firefox 40.0.3
On my Windows 7 system Firefox 40.0.3 everything works fine.

2. I tried your solution and set the video as a background video but nothing changed. Internet Explorer or Edge has still the black bars and the video stops for a short time when it’s starting again.

Hi Benjamin,

Upon checking, I’m still seeing that you are using a slider layer. By setting video as background, we meant to select it under Slider Settings: Above Masthead > Optional Background Video in the Cornerstone (see: http://prntscr.com/8ho3t4).

Let us know how it goes. Thanks!

[Benjamin1983Participant]

I would do that but then there are two other problems on my list 😉

1. I need sound. In a background video I wasn’t able to turn on the audio.
2. On the final website I have two videos, which should random appear on the top of the page. In Revolution slider I can create two sliders and have them loaded randomly. Set as bg video I’m missing that option.

Thanks a lot!

Hi Benjamin,

If you want your video to expand 100% of the screen, the only option would be to use background video. As Revolution Slider is a 3rd party plugin, regretfully, we have limited support for it that only covers its compatibility issues with X. So any question related to videos, animations or how the certain feature of the slider works, would be getting outside the support we can offer. You may refer to Revolution Slider online documentation: http://revolution.themepunch.com/documentation/

You can review our Kb article on Revolution Slider for more information.

Thank you for understanding. Take care!
