 * As previously discussed I’m having problems with the fade transition with version
   1.5.9
 * The effect looks like the text is being overtyped rather than a smooth fade in
   and out. You can see the problem at my test domain:
    dsmtestdomain.com/terraceelectric
 * Here is the short code I’m using [testimonials_cycle timer=”4000″]
 * Settings are all set to the default or blank.
 * The fade worked OK with these settings before I upgraded to 1.5.9

 * Hey John!
 * Thanks for posting here.
 * As mentioned before, there haven’t been any CSS changes (well, I think I mentioned
   that before.) This sounds like a CSS issue.
 * The library used is jQuery Cycle2, with the Fade transition. If you are googling,
   you want to look for CSS to help there. I’ll post back here, I don’t recall immediately
   what it is you need for this issue.
 * Thanks,
    Richard

 * Richard – the fade transition worked fine in the previous version. I made no 
   changes to the CSS then and it worked fine.
 * You can see the issue if you go to this page [http://www.dsmtestdomain.com/terraceelectric](http://www.dsmtestdomain.com/terraceelectric)
 * Are you saying that I now need to make changes to the CSS to make this work? 
   If so I’ll need some more precise instruction on what to change.

 * Hey John!
 * I do see your scroll effect looking strange – I thought you were talking about
   the fade effect!
 * If you switch to the fade effect, you should have no problems. You can see the
   fade effect on this page, with no additional CSS required to make it work:

 * That scroll effect I see on your page is weird though – stay tuned.
 * Thanks,

 * Hey JohnT –
 * Sorry for the delayed follow up. Anyways, you just need to include a background
   color on the blockquote and the sliding transition should work fine.
 * For example:
 *     ```
       blockquote.easy_testimonial{
       background-color: #fff;
       }
       ```
   
 * Thanks!

 * Richard – that didn’t work.
 * Now there’s a white box around the text and the slide transition is still jerky.
 * I have another site where its working perfectly, here I installed 1.5.9 directly
   rather than updated it from an earlier version. I think I should just deactivate,
   uninstall and re-install.

 * Hey John!
 * The color itself was just a recommendation – that’s why you see a white box.
 * I hate that you would need to deactivate, uninstall, and reinstall! However, 
   I’m glad it’s working for you on one site.
 * If you do get it figured out, please let me know. On my end, the CSS above works
   fine (granted, it’s on a site with a white background.) I have multiple examples
   here where it works fine:
    [http://goldplugins.com/documentation/easy-testimonials-documentation/easy-testimonials-examples/](http://goldplugins.com/documentation/easy-testimonials-documentation/easy-testimonials-examples/)
 * Maybe give them an inspection and see if you notice the missing ingredient?
 * Best,
    Richard

 * Hey John!
 * Best we can tell, this issue is resolved. Therefore, going to close this out.
 * Please let me know if you need anything else!
 * Thanks,
    Richard
