Wordpress Website not (re-)loading in Firefox

admin340 replied

Hi @ all,

our website https://ana-dismissed.de/ is not loading in Firefox, or to be more precise it is loading often but on occasionally not reloading when refreshed. This only happens in Firefox, Safari and other Chrome-based Browsers don't show this, perfectly working there (as far as I could check).

I already checked Firefox developer tools, like console or resource loadings etc. There is no issue I can find. I'm completely lost, no hint at all, why this happens in Firefox only.

Please find a short video here: https://imgur.com/a/31XyiMi

I'm thankful for every hint into the right direction.

Best regards!

If you keep the Page Inspector open while reloading and watch the attributes on the

<div id="wrapper" class="thb-page-transition-on">

you should see some animation stuff getting manipulated by the script which fades it in. Mine isn't getting stuck/stopping, but perhaps yours is. The rule that makes the div invisible is this one (100% invisibility):

  .thb-page-transition-on {
    opacity: 0;
    -moz-animation-fill-mode: both;
    -webkit-animation-fill-mode: both;
    animation-fill-mode: both
  }

To override that (and bypass fading), your custom CSS would be:

  .thb-page-transition-on {
    opacity: 1;
  }

Looks like the same issue as reported in this thread where a loader overlay (.thb-page-preloader) isn't removed when the page has finished loading.

Thanks for the hint! @cor-el

I deactivated pre-loading overlayer in the theme options: https://imgur.com/UiZp0Ps

Now background image is loading, but anything else (maybe JS related) is not working any more: - Headline text animation not loading - Burger Menu does not open the menu anymore - no content below the fold

Thanks @cor-el for the hint!

This lead to loading of the above the fold / viewport website but other issues occured:

on reload: - headline text animations wont work (maybe a JS related issue?) - click on burger menu does not open actual menu - no content is loaded below the fold

I just also added the custom CSS of jscher2000's answer in other thread (https://support.mozilla.org/de/questions/1320526#answer-1381723):

.loaderWrap { display: none !important; }

@jscher2000 Thanks for your answer!

The reason for the problem seems to have been a bug in the WP Theme itself, at least thats how I interpret the changelog of the last update to the seem:

UPDATE 2.4.0.3 – 01.2021 - Fixes an issue with preloading and page transition effects

I double checked the thb-page-transition-on div in page inspector, it transitions from value 0 to 1, like it should.

Thanks a lot at this point, although the actual issue was solved by the theme author, I did learn a lot and assume to be able to fix this issue by myself in future.

Best wishes!
