Dear Bogdan, it seems that you too, although responding in a way that is not off topic, have not read the request.
Access to the backend of the site is used to resolve specific issues affecting a specific site.
In this case, however, I have asked you, and I invite you to reread the request, for changes to improve the functioning of a part (the Marquee block) of your theme, which you could experiment with on any site that uses your Woodmart theme.
To make your task easier, I will list again here the requests (points 1 and 2):
1 – First of all, since the Marquee block, inserted into the Header Banner via Html Blocks, contains useful promotional information, we would like to make it Sticky.
2 – then the question of scrolling speed. Practically speaking, given that by inserting the same content (in our case text, and always used in the Header Banner) in the block, and applying the same speed, since Desktop and Mobile screens have very different widths, the same block will scroll very quickly on the smaller device (Mobile) or very slowly on the larger device (Desktop). So we wonder if you now have the possibility of entering only one scrolling speed for both devices, you will get that unpleasant effect, i.e. scrolling that is too slow on one device and/or too fast on the other. We partially remedied this by using media queries, (creating two different Rows with two different Marquee Blocks, with the same contents but two different scrolling speeds, which with media queries we made visible only one from Desktop and one only from Mobile), but it doesn’t seem like an optimal solution to us.
Do you plan to set different speeds for different screens width/devices, as is now planned for other parameters as design options?
Or is there a snippet that can be added to the theme to make up for it temporarily?
About point 1, making part of a Theme “Sticky” should be as simple as applying CSS to selectors
position: sticky;
top: 0;
It would only be necessary to understand which selector to apply this rule to.
It seems strange that this isn’t possible with your theme, or that you have to log in to our site to specify the selector.
Furthermore, still using the Marquee block, we noticed that:
3- by inserting only Images into the scrolling content (without text and without links), from Mobile if you click on the image, the (horizontal) scrolling stops and there is no way to restart it. I think this case needs to be resolved too, right?
I hope that this time the request is clearer and is treated appropriately with valid indications with a view to a solution (at least to the first two requests).
Thanks again.
