New Slider Issue on iOS

Hi folks,

Love the new Slider element—can’t wait to use some loopers!

But I’m having some very specific issues on iOS here: https://metroconnections.com/

Using Browserstack, I can see that the issues appear to be on iPhone 10 and below. Two issues:

  1. The slider doesn’t get fully loaded, so opacity: 0 remains. I was able to get around this by overriding the !important (lol):

.x-slide-container-viewport:not(.is-ready) .x-slide {
opacity: unset !important;
}

  1. Slide navigation doesn’t work! Console doesn’t throw off errors either. I’m wondering if there’s some JS hanging around that says :not(.is-ready) don’t allow the navigation?

Thanks!

Luke

Hi @ruenel,

Thanks, but I don’t think this is a plugin conflict—I’m 99% sure!

The new Slider elements works great on Chrome, Chrome iOS, FireFox, Android, Safari, etc.

Only Safari iOS 10 and below appears to have an issue—Safari iOS is going to be receiving the same cached stylesheet and JS that the other browsers receive (and process correctly). My guess is that it’s some dumb Safari iOS bug (but I couldn’t ferret out what was going on—I think there’s some on-fully-loaded triggers?).

I can live with the issue (probably), but being that this is a new element that’ll likely get a lot of attention, I thought you might want to nip it in the bud.

If you think it’d be helpful to get credentials to the site, let me know and I can do the secure note (but the slider is as vanilla as it gets so…).

Thanks! Luke
