    Hi guys,

    We’ve updated to the latest Yoast, after the issues with previous update (wrecking templates). While it works better there’s something odd that still happens, especially on links created within the pages, not so much in the main navigation, though that too is affected.

    When visiting some pages within the site a grey screen appears, just for a millisecond, before the page loads. Now, it’s not on all pages, and seems random. Once the page is cached it’s fine when you revisit the page, but on the initial load the grey flicker appears…

    I’ve compared it to another enfold site we did that still has a older version of yoast and there’s no such issue with grey screens. I suspect it’s a slight bug with the new Yoast, but thought you may be able to help?

    Thanks, the site is http://www.greenmarketing.com.au

    Actually this “effect” happens if the page content (images, stylesheets, scripts, etc.) is not fully loaded. Then the browser will just display the plain body element (including the body background color which seems to be grey in this case). You can try to change the body background color to white or install a cache plugin like w3tc: http://wordpress.org/plugins/w3-total-cache/ to improve the loading performance.

    Thanks for that. Is there a reason it would happen with one site created with Enfold, but not another site we created with Enfold? Could it be something we did in the set-up? Many thanks,

    Hi Marssolutions,

    If in one site you set a background color or style and not in the other that would explain it.

    It could also be that you’ve visited one more frequently so your browser has more of its data cached locally.

    Regards,

    Thanks Devin, Dude mentioned changing the background to white? (I thought Enfold was already white, but obviously not) and this would eliminate the grey, is there an easy way to do this safely?

    Thank you.

    Hey,

    You can add this on your custom.css or Quick CSS:

    html {
    background: white;
    }
