Arrow Pointing Wrong Way

    The issue can be found here: https://wordstreamcopy.com/
    The preview works: Yes – the arrow looks right in the preview
    It works with other themes: I tried with Vantage Premium and the arrow is still pointing the wrong way. I tried with the 2017 theme, and the slider doesn’t show up at all.
    It works when I disable all other plugins: Haven’t Tried
    Meta Slider version: 3.6.8

    ——–

    I just updated the MetaSlider plugin to v3.6.8, and noticed that the arrow on the right side of the slider is pointing left rather than right.

    We’ve been using the plugin for years. As far as I know, the arrow was pointing the correct direction before I updated the plugin.

    My theme is a child version of Vantage Premium.

    I reviewed my CSS, and I don’t see anything that would have changed how those arrows appear.

    I noticed the problem in Chrome on my desktop. (Version 64.0.3282.119 (Official Build) (64-bit)) I’m on a Mac running OS10.13.3.

    I have viewed it on my iPhone 6 (Safari), in Safari (11.0.3) on my desktop, and in Firefox (41.0.1) on my desktop. In each case, the arrow points in the wrong direction.

  • Hey @doug45208,

    I believe Vantage released an theme update to fix this. I’ll find the code to fix it though, one second.

    I did try disabling all other plugins, with no effect. The right arrow was still pointing the wrong way.

    It’s an issue where Vantage theme overrides our slideshow styles. I wrote the fix in another thread, just looking. Do you see an update to the Vantage theme?

    This should work. Let me know if not.

    .metaslider .flexslider .flex-direction-nav li a.flex-next {
    background: url(https://wordstreamcopy.com/wp-content/plugins/ml-slider/assets/sliders/flexslider/bg_direction_nav.png) no-repeat right;
}

    I don’t have a Vantage update. I’m on version 2.5.4. I’ll try the code.

    Appreciate the quick response!

    Okay… I added your code to my child style.css, and …

    I wonder if my Chrome cache is not clearing appropriately. (Tried it twice.) There is no change on Chrome.

    However…

    In both Safari and Firefox, both arrows are now pointing right. Which, of course, is still a problem.

    Did I miss something?

    No, I missed something. Apologies. I edited the code above which should work now for the right arrow. I added the .flex-next.

    Chrome is caching. You can open dev tools then hard reload.

    Hi forgot to mark this as resolved last time so I’ll do that now. Have a great weekend!

    Hello, I am experiencing the same issue and want to fix it using the code @kbat82 listed above. But as I am not a developer I do not know in what file I have to place the code. Can you help me out with that? I have access to all the directories and files.

    Thanks in advance!

    I tried some things out and managed to put the code in the right place.
    For other users that experience the same problem (the right arrow pointing to the left) with the Vantage theme, put the code above in: ‘assets/metaslider/public.css’.
