    Hi there,
    I’ve successfully setup a custom spinner for loading pages. On Desktop though before the spinner loads there is some text appearing for a second or less .. “Lade” .. which is German .. so I guess for english language site it would be “loading” ..
    Any way to avoid this text from showing ?
    Any hints would be appreciated as usual
    Cheers
    Axel
    p.s. just checked source code .. this is caused by the alt text of av-preloading-logo

    Hi Axel,

    What happens if you remove the alt text from the image?

    Hi there,
    the image itself has no alt text .. it apparently comes from functions-enfold.php

    $class .= ” av-transition-with-logo”;
    $logo = “{$label}“;
    }
    so I’ve changed this to
    $class .= ” av-transition-with-logo”;
    $logo = ““;
    }

    put the functions-enfold.php in my child theme folder .. but the alt text still shows ..

    Any idea ?

    sorry .. I’ve changed this

    			$class .= " av-transition-with-logo";
			$logo = "<img class='av-preloading-logo' src='{$logo}' alt='{$label}' title='{$label}' />";
		}

    to this

    		if($logo)
		{
			$class .= " av-transition-with-logo";
			$logo = "<img class='av-preloading-logo' src='{$logo}' />";
		}

    Hi,

    We can’t reproduce the issue on our end and the theme’s preloader should not be displaying any text by default. We do see the “Lade” text when we put the mouse pointer over the image. Is that what you’re referring to? If so, then removing the title attribute should remove the title tooltip, which is a default browser feature.

    Best regards,

    Hi Ismael,

    well.. I’ve just been at this issue again .. and as a matter of fact just seemed to have solved it ..

    As mentioned in previous post .. the alt / title generates from functions-enfold.php as stated above. I’ve now deleted the code in the enfold root in adition to the file in the child theme and now it works. The alt/title is gone.

    I’ve changed this

    				if($logo) 
		{
			$class .= " av-transition-with-logo";
			$logo = "<img class='av-preloading-logo' src='{$logo}' alt='{$label}' title='{$label}' />";
		}

    to this

    		if($logo) 
		{
			$class .= " av-transition-with-logo";
			$logo = "<img class='av-preloading-logo' src='{$logo}' />";
		}

    The only question remaining here is why it would not recognize the change in the child theme. Maybe I am getting something wrong with child themes… my understanding of it is that if I want to change whatever file of the theme I put a copy of it in the child theme folder so that it’ll overwrite the same file in the main enfold folder.. but in this case this didn’t work..

    Hi,

    You can only override template files in the child theme, the functions-enfold.php file is not one of them. You have to copy the “avia_preload_screen” function inside the child theme’s functions.php file in order to override the default one.

    Best regards,

    Aah .. ok .. got it … so whatever is in the child theme’s functions.php overwrites everything .. even if it’s in the parents theme’s functions-enfold.php .. thx a lot Ismael ..
    Feel free to close this topic ;)
