Recent Cards - fix for slider on mobile not working

[phenomlab]

Small caveat here in the sense that links in the slider no longer work. The bug is reported here
https://github.com/stevenwanderski/bxslider-4/issues/1246#issuecomment

The suggested “fix” is to use touchEnabled: false in the config, but that kind of defeats the purpose of the slider in my view on a mobile device.

And so, it appears that the bug only impacts Google Chrome, so we’ll have to test the browser first to ensure that if it is indeed Chrome, we will need to disable the touchEnabled setting. This code below will do exactly that. If anything other than Chrome is detected, we set touchEnabled: true (which is actually the default anyway)

window.addEventListener("load", () => {
    // CHROME
    if (navigator.userAgent.indexOf("Chrome") != -1) {
        console.log("Google Chrome");
        $(window).on('action:ajaxify.end', function(data) {
            $('.carousel-mode').bxSlider({
                auto: true,
                autoControls: true,
                stopAutoOnClick: true,
                pager: false,
                keyboardEnabled: true,
                touchEnabled: false
            });
        });
    } else {
        console.log("Others");
        $(window).on('action:ajaxify.end', function(data) {
            $('.carousel-mode').bxSlider({
                auto: true,
                autoControls: true,
                stopAutoOnClick: true,
                pager: false,
                keyboardEnabled: true,
                touchEnabled: true
            });
        });
    }
});

@phenomlab when I use the codes in the top two black boxes, in firefox it gives this:

one card is taking the whole space of 4 cards…

[phenomlab]

@crazycells Yes, because you have hard coded relative widths set - did you modify anything ?

The default width from the plugin is around 290px

[crazycells]

@phenomlab let me check the settings…

[phenomlab]

@crazycells If you can’t find it, this will resolve it

li.col-md-3.col-sm-6.col-xs-12.recent-card-container {
    width: 290px !important;
}

I could not find any CSS codes related to the width of these cards, but this code solved the problem. Thanks.

Additionally, why the pages are shown as points under these cards? We do not normally have that setting on, I checked the settings and restarted the forum, but they did not go away.

[phenomlab]

@crazycells Because you are overriding the plugin bxslider library with one from an external source - see below

$(window).on('action:ajaxify.end', function(data) {
    $('.carousel-mode').bxSlider({
        auto: true,
        autoControls: true,
        stopAutoOnClick: true,
        pager: false
    });
});

Essentially, you’ll need to use pager: false as shown above to disable it

[crazycells]

@phenomlab to stop automatic movement, I should do:

auto: false,

right?

[phenomlab]

@crazycells Yes, or just remove it

[crazycells]

@phenomlab yeap, I see it now. Thank you very much.

In Firefox (desktop), and in safari (mobile) I do not have any problem and it works beautifully.

[phenomlab]

@crazycells Great !!

[crazycells]

Previously, baris said: “For me ajaxifying between pages was breaking when I activated touchEnabled.”

Is this change causing the same problem?

PS. I do not know what ajaxifying is, I checked the definition but I did not really understand it.

[phenomlab]

@crazycells No, because we call the function again using

$(window).on('action:ajaxify.end', function(data) {

[crazycells]

@phenomlab great! Good to hear that (although I do not understand fully)…

Thanks a lot

Are you using the code block from here ?

AJAX is “Asynchronous Javascript And XML (Extensible Markup Language)” and means that requests for data can be sent and received without having to reload the entire page. This strategy is commonplace in today’s internet world - particularly for Single Page Applications (known as SPA’s)

@phenomlab no, I made these changes:

@phenomlab I changed the code to this:

    // CHROME
    if (navigator.userAgent.indexOf("Chrome") != -1) {
        console.log("Google Chrome");
        $(window).on('action:ajaxify.end', function(data) {
            $('.carousel-mode').bxSlider({
                auto: true,
                autoControls: true,
                stopAutoOnClick: true,
                pager: false,
                keyboardEnabled: true,
                touchEnabled: false
            });
        });
    } else {
        console.log("Others");
        $(window).on('action:ajaxify.end', function(data) {
            $('.carousel-mode').bxSlider({
                auto: true,
                autoControls: true,
                stopAutoOnClick: true,
                pager: false,
                keyboardEnabled: true,
                touchEnabled: true
            });
        });
    }
});

with “auto: false” edit…

and it is still working with firefox and safari; but not with google chrome.

[phenomlab]

@crazycells That’s correct. Because of the bug in Chrome, we have to disable touchEnabled
