Thanks Devin,
The major problem is the slider being responsive regardless of anything else. The fact that it s responsive when “fixed width”is selected was only intended as a clue to where the problem may lie.
My site is being changed to often at the moment but your “demo” site has the same problem so I would think that if you solved that you solve it all.Regards Paul
Hi again.
Following on – FYI…
I think it is all a little worse. The problem (or related) also shows itself with safari (and I would suspect any browser) if the Enfold theme options “responsive layout” is set to “fixed layout”.In this case, if the window size is reduced, the content remains as expected (with a scroll bar) but the slider still performs as a responsive object – if you scroll to view the far right of content, the slider info moves away to the left out of sight.
I notice that the “cart” symbol also moves into the window background and out of the menu area but this may be another issue.
This of course is not acceptable to any client and must surely be a “bug” in the slider code. For what looks like a great template, this oversight is surprising.
I would appreciate a fix for this – it surely must be possible for the javascript code to check both this responsive layout setting and for IE8 and not make the slider responsive when not required – to be consistent with what the content does. The absence of the scroll bar with IE8 related to the content being fixed because of IE8 but the “responsive layout” setting set to “responsive layout…” would also seem to be a “bug”.
If this cannot be addressed, I would appreciate a heads up as I will have to look at other templates.
Regards Paul
Thanks for the response.
That all makes sense and explains why this is happening.
However, as users of this template will most likely want “responsive”operation for whatever, it is not really practical to turn it off just to suit IE8 viewers, even though there may be a lot of them.I would think (based on no design knowledge of course) it would be a relatively small modification to automatically turn off the “responsive” setting for IE8 users as you say. It would be appreciated by me and I would say others if this small thing could be fixed. I have had no other problems with the template but being “responsive” is a big plus for the template so it ought to behave.
I will plough on and hope the client does not complain or get complaints – if the IE8 window is large enough it will not be noticed of course, but….
regards Paul
