Rev Slider loader not much use

Support
#1

Howdy, so, I have the preloader setup, but its loading with the rest of the content of the slider, which, makes it pretty useless, it should display as soon as the page does, I have a background gradient thatloads super fast, so the loader should display here…anyway I can make this happen? I saw this somewhere “x_before_site_begin”

Could that be applied to the script of the loader?

Thanks.

Hello @logoglo,

Thanks for writing in! How did you applied the script of the loader to your page? Did you use a custom php function or something? Would you mind sharing it with us so that we can modify it and see of we could make the action hook: x_before_site_begin . Normally, you can use this by having this:

add_action('x_before_site_begin', 'your_function_name_to_load_the_loader');
function your_function_name_to_load_the_loader(){
  // this displays the loader function
}

Please let us know how it goes.

its the loader within the rev slider plugin

Hello @logoglo,

The loader will only appear within the slider section because it for the slider only. You might need to use a page loader instead.

Hope this helps.

Hmm, thats what I thought, but then that loader is before the page loads, but the page loads really quickly, so it wont be seen, only the delay between the page load, and the slider load…

No way I can add that code to rev sliders code?

Hello @logoglo,

Regretfully there is no way that you can modify the loader of the slider. It could be possible with custom development, but this would be outside the scope of support we can offer. You may wish to consult a developer to assist you with this.

Thanks for understanding. Take care!
