Using CSS Sprites for flag images?

Hello Paul,

Why should there be a future release for a feature that is already there?

Hello Ofer,

Thanks for the quick response.

Maybe I’m missing something here, is there a setting I need to activate to enable the CSS sprites?

If you check my site at https://www.livefreedietravelling.com at the top of the right hand sidebar I’ve got your widget, if I do an inspect element on the flags they are all coming up as different URL’s.

The additional HTTP requests are also shown on https://www.webpagetest.org/pagespeed.php?test=130123_7T_WWJ&run=1&cached=0

Thanks again for any help you can offer,
Regards,
Paul

Hi Paul,

You can choose a widget appearance with the css, it is one of the options, you are welcomed to look at the widget on transposh.org and see

Good luck ??

Hi Ofer,

Thanks for the quick response! Wow, completely didn’t know that…

Perfect, take care,

Paul

Hi Ofer:

I am missing something I think. I have enabled flags (with CSS) and have run speed tests at https://www.webpagetest.org/ and I do not see one sprite but each individual flag which requires a lot if http requests. Other than enabling the widget (which I have in the footer of my wordpress site) is there something more I need to do?

each flag presently is loading a unique png file like this: https://iaddicshelters.net/wp-content/plugins/transposh-translation-filter-for-wordpress/img/flags/la.png

Hi @iaddic,

First note – would appreciate if people will not respond to two month old closed topics, but rather create new ones.

But to your point, I have checked your site, and the .css version seems fine, maybe the testing page uses a cached copy of your site, which is not .css enabled. I advise that you retest this.

Good luck
