You can see what I mean here. The top field is invisible except for the button. You have to highlight the area with the mouse to see that there is anything there.

I guess this should be “resolved” now.

Solved like this…

<?php
/*

Template Name: Testimonials

*/

$catquery = new WP_Query( 'cat=113&posts_per_page=30' );
while($catquery->have_posts()) : $catquery->the_post();
?>

<?php get_header(); ?>

<ul>

<?php the_content(); ?>
</ul>

</ul>

<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>

No. When I disabled Jetpack, the site loaded noticeably faster with no old background image “flicker” at all. You cannot even tell the original template background image is there.

If you would like, I can enable Jatpack when you are available to see the site. Once you confirm, I will disable it so you can see the difference. Just let me know.

UPDATE: Just noticed that the Javascript to Footer plugin also brought my image slider to a screeching halt. Deleted it…

NOPE. The footerscripts did not help. I enabled them first and everything was fine. Then I reactivated Jetpack and the problem was back. Jetpack is again disabled.

Thanks Andrew, that helps me understand.

I had not tried it because I did not know what it did. I do not like loading too many plugins without understanding what they do as it means more potential to give me problems with each update.

I will try it so we can add this as a possible solution as well, but I am not sure about the benefit of the Jetpack plugin as it seems more like a potential problem than anything else.

I was using Jetpack to add custom CSS, but found a field in my site theme that does the same thing, so I do not need Jetpack and then problem went away.

UPDATE: I guess I should say “almost beautifully.”

It turns out that when I enabled Jetpack, I started experiencing wonky page loads and flickering of old/new background images on refreshing. I had to disable Jetpack, but the style had an INTEGRATION tab that allowed me to enter the code.

I really appreciate the help wpcanyon. Even though I cannot use Jetpack, I learned that I can override the CSS thanks to you and the quotes look great now.

UPDATE: I have disabled my plugins and it appears to be the Jetpack installation that is causing this. Once I disable that one, all is fine. When I re-enable it, things go awry again.

My site does the same thing. I have a custom background and each time I change pages, the original background shows for a second before the custom background takes over. It was not like this until recently and I believe it may be caused by a plugin.

jameskelly – I checked your page out and it did not seem to flicker. Have you fixed the problem since? If so, what do I need to do?

FWIW, my site is https://www.filmjackets.com/current/

You can see the black and white striped background first, then the leather texture takes over.

Is this correct?

I am not clear on the plugin… what does it do (in laymans terms?)

Thank you for your quick response.

That worked beautifully! Thank you.

I think that may be beyond my capability.

I found it easier to just make the PMP pages full width for now. That seems to work fine, so do no sweat the bullet-proof-ness. Thanks!

From what I can see, it is only the one page so far. The others seem to fit within the column. I think my column in question is 460px wide. Hopefully, you can see it here:

Thanks so much.
