Debug changing page colours (Safari)

[joeclarkx]

Hi, I'm using a script to give randomised page colours.

I have a problem with safari specifically- and only on one page

http://corneliabaltes.com/
The 'News' page takes maybe a minute to return a coloured background. This is a problem as all text elements and menus on the page are white.

The script is:

<script>
const colors = ["#FF7575", "#D69D00", "#FF5347", "#1BDA91", "#00ABF5", "#F38816"];

window.onload = () => {
  const colorToSet = colors[Math.floor(Math.random() * colors.length)];
  document.querySelector("body").style.backgroundColor = colorToSet;
};

I don't have the technical chops to even begin troubleshooting this. Any ideas?

I have already purged cache and also tried installing jetpack CDN...

Thanks!

Dear @joeclarkx

Great Website! 🌝

This CSS is responsible i believe:

#grid, .cover-region-desktop .cover-inner {
    /* background-color: #ffffff; */
}

Could you please try changing the Gridder's background colour to 'Clear'

Gridder > Set Background Color > Clear

Hey

Thanks so much for the reply.

Actually the home page is intentionally set to white as an overlay.

The problem I have is the that only the News page is loading slowly. Very Slowly. I have started wondering if the problem might be the instagram embed. Thats the only thing that makes it different to any of the other pages...

Hey Richard

Thats a great resource. I have already had a look at it and implemented what I could.

As its one particular page that I'm struggling with I'm inclined to think its some code that needs troubleshooting. I parked it for a bit, but I'll have another look. I'm guessing it may be the instagram embebd.

Best
Joe
