Wordpress Themes - WP Forum at BFA
There will be no more development for Atahualpa (or any other theme), and no support. Also no new registrations. I turned off the donation system. I may turn the forum to read only if it gets abused for spam. Unfortunately I have no time for the forum or the themes. Thanks a lot to the people who helped in all these years, especially Larry and of course: Paul. Take care and stay healthy -- Flynn, Atahualpa developer, Sep 2021

Carousels breaking responsiveness - told it's theme's media query

I'm definitely an amateur developer - trying to maintain my own site. I've tried multiple carousel plugins and they all break responsiveness once I get to mobile size. I talked to the plug-in developers and they said the issue is with my theme media query. I was testing it out on our test site (the logos will eventually be MUCH smaller! And no, it won't auto-advance....) - http://test.thestrapsaver.com

Does anyone have any suggestions for me?

I have slick slider installed (https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-sli...mage-carousel/) but the same thing happened with:

https://wordpress.org/plugins/logo-carousel-slider/

and at least a few others.

Thoughts?

I use Meta Slider on my Montezuma sites and it's worked fine on mobile devices. Can even swipe across to change slides.

I just added a Slick Slider demo to my Montezuma test site and it seems to work fine at mobile widths:

hmm... I don't know if my developer modified the theme. I also have the problem that main images on my blog aren't responsive if I add a title. I wonder if somehow it relates, since everything is supposed to be fully responsive. I'll give meta slider a try.

Meta slider is definitely responsive, but the distance it scrolls is being calculated wrong - I'm losing logos off of the side. I think it's coming from here... (a developer friend found it) One step up, two steps back

You're welcome. The only other thing you should add is some CSS to remove those arrows. Montezuma has a CSS rule which adds the arrow icon to the beginning of list items, so add this to remove them from the slides:
Code:
.hentry .metaslider ul li i {
   background-image: none;
}

Yes, I have that fixed on my main site, not on my test site. Can I tell you how those arrows were the bane of my existence for months? I'm not a developer... so i tried everything that I could to dump them. I hired someone to do my new cart, and he fixed it.

I'm going to have the designer add the "space" between the logos in the images... so I'll post once it's up. It's lovely, really. And, as an amateur, I really appreciate the help!
