Posted in: Newspaper

Hello,

I tried increasing this value: http://screencast.com/t/ICqerlRpPx from default 3000 milliseconds (3 seconds) to 6000 for the trending now post rotation timer, with no luck!

Please help!

Thanks!

Hello,

I tested this at my end and it changes from 3 seconds to 6 seconds. Try to input a bigger value to see if the ticker gets affected at all. Try something like 30 to make it real fast or 30000 to make it really slow and see if anything changes at all. If not, try to clear your cache or try it without plugins at all (except visual composer).
Let us know how it goes.

Thank you!

Hello,

Set it to 30000 and deactivated plugins one at the time. Noticed that the “tagDiv Speed Booster” plugin is the issue. When I deactivate that plugin, the rotation works fine. When I reactivate the plugin, issue comes back again. What to do next please?

Thanks again!

Hello,

Using Speedbooster, the theme switches to the theme_min_js version. So any change in the primary JS file will be ignored. You will have to make the change in the min js version. This is a bit different because the delay time here is not 3000 but rather ‘3e3’. (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19335472/3e3-3000-javascript-query)
You can find this value here: http://screencast.com/t/ojT6GQ6i You have to change these values (4 of them in total) to ‘6e3’ if you want to have a 6 seconds delay to your trending now element.

Thanks.

Is there a “update-safe” solution to this? Wouldn’t it be overwritten with future theme updates?

Unfortunately there is no update proof solution for any at all customization made to the theme code. No custom code is update proof. Even the child theme is not update proof.
Thank you!
