    The slider in BizWay takes several seconds to load when someone comes to the site's home page. Any way I can improve that? my site is http://superbcommunication.com

    Hello,

    You are using old version of theme. Please download theme from your members area and upload it.
    It will resolve multiple loading errors on your site.
    Also you can use any cache plugin.

    I have updated my theme to 2.0.6 and the slider load time did not improve. Other ideas?

    Hello,

    Paste this code in Custom CSS
    Appearance > Theme Option > Styling Option > Custom CSS

    Code:
    .flexslider .slides > li {
    display: list-item;
    }
    

    This will solve your issue.

    Mmm. Anything missing from the code? When I add it as you gave it to me, it displays above the logo and does not affect slider improvement.

    Hello,

    We have checked your website and it seems that by mistake you have forgotten to close the curly braces in your css code, please close curly braces in that code in your custom css, After that add the code provided above, It will work fine.

    Thank you so much for going out of your way to help out! Please forgive my ignorance, but I'm still not able to make it work. Notice how the code appears at the top of my logo, even when I close the curly braces.

    Here's all the code I have inserted to date in the custom css field (with your help). Did I place the brackets in the right place?

    <script type="text/javascript">

    var _gaq = _gaq || [];
    _gaq.push(['_setAccount', 'UA-38426706-1']);
    _gaq.push(['_trackPageview']);

    (function() {
    var ga = document.createElement('script'); ga.type = 'text/javascript'; ga.async = true;
    ga.src = ('https:' == document.location.protocol ? 'https://ssl' : 'http://www') + '.google-analytics.com/ga.js';
    var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(ga, s);
    })();

    </script>}

    .flexslider .slides > li {
    display: list-item;

    Hello,

    Do not paste the above code given by Gourav in Google Tracking Code section.
    Paste that code in the Custom CSS (Appearance > Theme Option > Styling Option > Custom CSS)
    in your dashboard.

    Follow the instruction shown in the image given below.
    1. First image

    [​IMG]




    2. Second image,
    Go to the Custom CSS section in your dashboard and close the code with the close curly braces ("}") as shown in the image given below

    [​IMG]


    And then paste the code given below in Custom CSS (Appearance > Theme Option > Styling Option > Custom CSS)
    in your dashboard.

    Code:
    .flexslider .slides > li {
    display: list-item;
    }
    This will solve your issue.
