Parallax in Cornerstone doesn't work

[macvink]

Hi there,

I’m building a website, and I want the background image on a section to be a parallax. However, it doesn’t seem to work. I’ve updated the theme and the plugins to the most recent version, and I’ve tried deactivating all plugins (except Cornerstone) but the parallax still didn’t work.

Can you take a look and help me out? The parallax is on the homepage.

Hi,

Looks like I broke the login page when I disabled some plugins. Oops! Can you login with

Hey @macvink,

I see that the parallax function isn’t working in your site. The parallax controls itself does not take effect or update when you change options.

I see you’re using PHP 5.5. Would you mind updating it to 5.6 or higher?

Also, would you mind deactivating all your third party plugins while we’re troubleshooting this to ensure there’s no conflict? If this could not be done, you can copy your site to a staging server so we could find what’s causing this without affecting your live site.

If you’re comfortable with CSS, you can try adding this to your Content CSS

.x-bg-layer-lower {
  background-attachment:fixed;
}

Thanks.

Hi,

I will ask our hosting server if they can update the PHP-version, but I don’t think that will be the solution as I have another website on the same server with a working parallax: http://startblokachterveld.nl

I’ve now deactivated all plugins except Cornerstone, Slider Revolution and Under Construction. That’s what you meant, right? As long as Under Construction stays active, because the public shouldn’t see the website yet.

The CSS code worked. I could keep this as a solution, but it’s still weird that the normal way doesn’t work?

Hi @macvink

On that other website, the sections used are classic sections, on the new website you are using new sections, which I believe updating the PHP version should resolve this issue with parallax backgrounds.

Thanks.
