Slider Revolution Post-based Slider hyperlink to latest post not working properly with Firefox

[jonecky816739]

Hi There.

I know this may not be the most X related issue but since Revolution Slider is theme bundled, I can’t send support ticket to Theme Punch either.

I’ve got a Slider Revolution slider on my landing page and now I’m trying to get my latest post as hyperlink inside the slider. Everything is otherwise ok but I’ve got some problems with Firefox (Chrome and Edge working like a charm). Link is active hyperlink for first 3-4s and then it gets unactive, only with Firefox. And, when inspecting the element and disabling “transform-style: preserve-3d;” the link gets back active.

You can see test here:

slidertesti - Old Illusions

If you move mouse pointer on top of “CLICK HERE”, it’s active link to my latest article but after few seconds gets unactive. I have no idea what to do here.

In case you need my admin details, let me know.

Hey @jonecky816739,

If you need a quick solution, you can override the transform-style property by adding this code in your slider’s custom CSS box.

.tp-parallax-wrap {
    transform-style: flat;
}

Your link layer however is invisibly covered by other layers because of the transform-style: preserve-3d. That is why you see the link working on first load but few moments later, other layers are loaded and covers the link.

This might be a bug in Slider Revolution. Would you mind exporting your slider and upload the zip file to a file sharing service like Dropbox so we could download, test and post to our issue tracker if we could replicate it. The person who is responsible for reporting issues to third party plugins will then forward this to ThemePunch.

Thanks.

Hi Christian.

Thanks for quick solution, I’ll give it a try. Also, I’ve added secure note with the exported slider as per your request.

Thanks!

Hello @jonecky816739,

I have tested the slider in my Firefox (64.0b6) and I could not replicate the issue. Could this be just a caching issue since you have installed LiteSpeed? Please temporarily deactivate caching, clear your Firefox browser cache or use private browsing mode and test your slider again.

Hope this helps. Kindly let us know.

Hi RueNel,

The answer for why you can’t replicate the issue anymore is because I made the quick solution provided by Christian above. If I take the Christian’s code away from slider’s CSS Box, issue comes back. If you want to, I can take it away so you can test it ?

And yes, I have tested all Lightsped cache clearing, even disabled the cache, cleared all browser caches, etc. Everything works like a charm in Chrome and Edge but Firefox works the way I described.

Hi @jonecky816739,

Looks like a glitch in Firefox and it doesn’t behave the same as on another device. I’ll see if I can reproduce this multiple times before adding as a bug.

Thanks!
