Blue links showing behind each page when I click on pages in nav bar

  • Although I find Twenty Twelve easy to use I don’t find it very responsive. Every time I click on a new page in my navigation bar blue links very briefly show behind each page which is not good. My site is at https://www.fatlossfactorreviews.co.uk and you can see what I mean when you click on each page link in the nav bar. It seems to be a problem with the theme as it tends to show the background of links etc for a fraction of a second when anyone clicks on a new page in the nav bar. Anyone know how I can fix this?

  • Do not edit the Twenty Twelve theme itself. First create a child theme for your changes. Or install a custom CSS plugin.

    And please don’t bump your topics. That’s not allowed here.

    Sorry, I don’t know what you mean by bumping my topics. I think I have been editing my main them – I thought that’s what you did? The theme doesnt say anywhere about creating a child theme? Thanks

    Please see the second link I posted above.

    You should never edit a theme downloaded from WPORG but create a child theme instead. These forums are full of such warnings.

    Thanks but how do I move over all my content to a new child theme? Thanks again

    Your site’s content is stored in your database – not in your current theme.

    I have updated my site and now use a child theme but the blue links are still briefly showing when you click on each page for a brief second. Who do I contact to get this sorted? I know i’m not allowed to bump my thread but there doesn’t seem to be much support here? Thanks

    You just did – posting in this thread is the way to continue with this issue.

    Looks like your child theme is set up correctly – so that’s good. But I don’t see the issue you are talking about – what browser are you using?

    Great thanks. I am using Mozilla. You have to click through all the pages as it does’nt happen all time. It’s so annoying!

    I saw something like what you describe once – looked like the CSS didn’t load instantly. Not sure you can do anything about that, but have you tried deactivating your plugins to see if that does anything.

    Hi thanks sorry I was away. I need those plugins activated – is there anyone from WordPress twenty twelve who can advise as to why the CSS isn’t loading instantly – there must be a cure somewhere!! ??

    These forums are the only support offered here. Have you identified which plugin (if any) is causing it?
