Hi,
I’m using easy digital downloads, and I always have a weird flickering on my purchase buttons which are created from a shortcode.
You can see it at the attached url for instance: on page load, the button is like doubled for a short moment.
And when I edit the page, the button is also “doubled” in the preview area! cf screenshot here : https://ibb.co/HrG1kp7
I contacted easyDigitalDownload about it, and here is their answer :I see what you’re describing and it’s not anything specific to EDD, it’s just the way your theme/coding is handling the “button” element. More than likely there is a default “button” style and then when it loads, another style is being called in so you see the “flicker”.
I would recommend talking to your theme developer about this if you’d likeSo what’s your view on that? Is that an Enfold bug? Do you have any pointers about how I can fix that?
Thanks,
CharlesHey goch,
As a precaution, can you try disabling all active plugins to see if the issue resolves?
Best regards,
Jordan ShannonI still have the issue with all the plugins disabled (I just let the EasyDigitalDownload plugin activated, otherwise the shortcode isn’t translated to a button)
Hi,
I see that it’s surely a delay in the style being applied. Are you running any site optimization plugins at the moment?
Best regards,
Jordan ShannonHi,
I would recommend installing an optimization plugin. This should help speed things up a bit and avoid this current issue. If it doesn’t work we can try other solutions. Here are some optimization plugins to consider:

Best regards,
Jordan ShannonI already have optimizations plugins and I have the same issue with my optimization plugins.
I can desactivate all the plugins, or activate them, I always have the same issue..So yes, we can start to try other solutions..
Where could be the issue? where should I start looking? what can I test?Hi,
Please provide admin info so we can log in and look into this issue further.
Best regards,
Jordan ShannonI’m affraid this isn’t possible, but I’m happy to look into this myself.
Can’t you just give me just a tiny pointer about what could potentially be going on?Hi,
We would need to div into the code if the optimization plugin is not working. However, here are some suggested tips:
Remove any jquery from header and place it to the bottom of the page . Remove excess white space from your coding. Reduce the size of your images files. Try to combine many scripts into one if possible. Remove any unnecessary elements . Combine all style sheets into one - lesser files , lesser response time and faster loading time. Optimize your background image or any image you are using on the page for faster loading. In the end use Gzip to minify JS , CSS and HTML . Never use it on images,videos,pdf's - wont do any additional compression ,but might increase the size .Best regards,
Jordan ShannonCan you explain/have an idea why I see 2 buttons side by side in the preview window?(cf the screenshot I posted in my first post)
that surely not something that can be related to performance/loading speed and to what you are pointing, don’t you think?Hi,
It looks to be the button showing before styling is loaded. This is why I’m pointing towards a sped issue because there is a load delay.
Best regards,
Jordan ShannonI found out an acceptable workaround for me : I’ve put the buttons within columns, and gave them a 10ms fade-in animation.
I don’t have the flickering anymore that way. You can close the thread. thanks for you time.
