Off Canvas flashing with Meta Slider / Flex Slider

[jhodgski]

When I visit my FoundationPress site on a mobile phone and open the main nav menu, the menu displays but it flashes each time the Meta Slider (in Flex Slider mode) slide changes. See http://www.chaletdulys.it/ for an example.

Hi. Works fine on my iPhone 5 with iOS7. No flashing carousel when the nav menu is open. Which phone / os / browser gives you problems? Meta-slider is nevertheless not part of Foundation. I can not vouch for any third-party plugins. That said, there is something strange with the aspect ratio of the images in the carousel when it is scaled down. Have you tried using Orbit? Alternatively, check out Slick: https://github.com/olefredrik/slick

Hiya Ole,

Thanks for your reply.

The issue I was having was on a Samsung Galaxy S4.

Slick looks great. Is there a WordPress plugin for it? And would you recommend it above Orbit?

Cheers,
James

Dunno if there's a WP plugin for Slick. I'd suggest loading the scripts needed and use it in combination with Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) http://www.advancedcustomfields.com/

Have no experience with Slick myself, but Zurb did recently endorse it on Twitter: https://twitter.com/ZURBfoundation/status/460894129010917376 , so I guess it's pretty.. umm.. slick? :)

Cheers and good luck!

I just noticed that Orbit has a deprecation notice on it; so looks like Slick is the way to go.

Owl carousel 2 is great! I was able to do everything I need until now with it
