Flickering Sidebar
-
We have an annoying problem with an online shop. The site has been stable for a long time. We are adding more products (about 4,500 so far). I’ve noticed that the Shop sidebar is flickering on the Woocommerce product and catalogue pages. The flickering starts when the page loads. If you scroll down it stops. I’ve never encountered this issue before. Is this a memory issue?
Wordpress: 6.0.2
Theme: Flatsome
WooCommerce: 6.9.3

Hi there,
Thanks for getting back to us.
This kind of problem is usually caused by a conflict with your theme or with another plugin.
?
The best way to determine this is to:- Temporarily switch your theme to Storefront
- Disable all plugins except for WooCommerce
- Repeat the action that is causing the problem
If you’re not seeing the same problem after completing the conflict test, then you know the problem was with the plugins and/or theme you deactivated. To figure out which plugin is causing the problem, reactivate your other plugins one by one, testing after each, until you find the one causing conflict. You can find a more detailed explanation on how to do a conflict test here.
Best,
Ok thank you
Hi @jen000
Ok thank you
Can you please confirm if performing the conflict test helped you find and solve the issue?
I just wanted to add a reply to thank everyone who tried to help. In case this helps anyone else, I ended up asking on the Flatsome FB group. They advised me to switch off the “sticky” feature which is set automatically on the sidebar and it sorted it.
Hi @jen000
I’m glad you were able to find a solution to your inquiry here and thanks for sharing it with the community too! ??
Cheers!
