Does anyone else's pattern site have some of their items images show up blank until you mouse over the image area? My site has done this for quite a long time.. every time I check in on it.. 3-4 item images on my pages are blank.. I've been considering moving my website off Pattern because of this.. But thought maybe I'll ask.. maybe it's something I have set up wrong?
In case one needs to see the site.. hope this is allowed here.. but my site is KevsKrafts.com
Contemplating moving back to Indiemade..
Thanks for reading this and for any replies.. on this topic.
I'm looking on my Windows desktop. I tried Firefox, IE, and Chrome. All your photos seem fine to me. When I land on your main page, they show fine. And then if I click on a listing, I can scroll through them all without any issues. And my internet connection is not that fast!
A few questions and suggestions:
What system and browser are you using?
What anti-virus software do you have running? Maybe that is blocking things?
Have you tried different themes in Pattern? In your theme, the description kind of pops up over the image and I'm wondering if that is causing an issue?? Just a wild guess. Maybe try another theme just to see if you have the same issue?
Have you gone through the other Pattern sites to see if they also have issues? Like mine? funkydreams.com
I do know sometimes it takes a second or two for all of my photos to load, so perhaps you are seeing something similar on your site.
But you could go through the Post Your Pattern Website thread and see if you see anything hinky on any of those:
Let us know what you find out.
Oh, and maybe try clearing your cache. That can fix a whole number of issues, so worth a shot.
Thank you for the tips , I'll see what I can find out.. My system is Windows 10 and I've tried it on both Chrome and on Microsoft Edge.. both seem to do the same thing.. and this has been ongoing thing for me or a long time.. I've just been too busy to Really dig into it to see what's going on.. Maybe something just on my end..
I think I'll look into the other themes and see what they may do.. I think you're onto something with the mouse over description.. as it's been on other sites that have that.. Probably something in my computers settings somewhere.. who knows.. My biggest concern is if it's doing that for others.. as I don't want that happening to others..
Thanks again for the suggestions
I'm wondering if anyone knows how to adjust the photos on Pattern. Everything on Etsy.com looks exactly like I planned but when they transfer to pattern all the tops are cropped off. I have cleared my cache and tried to adjust the thumbnails on Etsy but it hasn't helped. Suggestions? Niki
@DelphisAttic Is there a particular photo that looks different in Etsy and Pattern? I'm not seeing much of a difference. Both Etsy and Pattern display photos that are landscape oriented better than letter oriented.
Also, what browser/device are you using to look at them? I looked in Chrome, FF, and ME and nothing seems much different.
On a side note, your Pattern site has "Dephis Attic" instead of "Delphis Attic" at the top.
I couldn't get the photos to show up properly using the Zephyr theme. The worst were the tall white Santa's where all that showed up were their stomachs so I changed the theme to brick and the pictures worked out. I tried going back to the zephyr theme but nothing I did would fix the photos. I am using Chrome on an HP desktop with Windows 10. I like the zepher theme better but If I can't get it to work I will be ok with the brick theme.
Thank you for catching the typo!
