 * Hi there, there’s seem to be an issue with metaslider on ios devices using safari
   browser. This issue randomly happens, but when you visit the website, the slider
   does not work. but when you refresh the website it will work as usual. I’ve tested
   this with other browsers and android phones but only iphones running safari suffers
   this problem.
 * here is a screenshot of the issue

 * Hi [@markhamwalrus](https://wordpress.org/support/users/markhamwalrus/)
 * Could you put the slideshow on its own test page by itself and see if the problem
   still persists?

 * My colleagues did some digging and it might be related to the 3rd party lazyload
   feature you are using. Can you try to disable that and see if it works? if so,
   let me know what plugin you are using for lazyloading and I’ll see if I can figure
   something out.
 * Also, can you state what iPhone and iOS version you are using?

 * Hi [@kbat82](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kbat82/) thank you for your 
   prompt reply, I was using autoptimize plugin to do my lazyload, but even it’s
   deactivated, the problem still appears randomly. I’m using ios 12 on iphone 7
   and iphone 8

 * Hi [@markhamwalrus](https://wordpress.org/support/users/markhamwalrus/)
 * Sorry for the late reply. I was hoping to secure an iPhone to test on but no 
   avail. I should be able to next week though. In the meantime, can you test it
   against the slideshow on metaslider.com? Does it load there?
 * Have you tested it while disabling all other plugins? If we can narrow down which
   has a conflict I can set something up locally to address it.

 * Hi [@kbat82](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kbat82/),
 * I’ve disabled all my plugins and reactivated it one by one but still, the issue
   persists.

 * Hi [@markhamwalrus](https://wordpress.org/support/users/markhamwalrus/)
 * It’s just difficult to reproduce on other pages that use MetaSlider. If it’s 
   not a conflict with plugins then it could very likely be a theme conflict. Can
   you try switching to a default theme for a moment?
 * Alternatively, since you seems to have some coding experience, could you set 
   up another WP instance with a default theme and nothing else? If we can get it
   to break with no plugins, default WP theme and your specific slideshow images,
   settings, etc then that will help me replicate the issue myself.
 * If the theme itself causes the issue, then the next step would be to try disabling
   the header, footer, etc until the cause is found.

 * hi [@kbat82](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kbat82/) ,
 * I think it has something to do with my jquery, whenever the slide does not load
   I get this error:
 * [https://snipboard.io/6iSPBT.jpg](https://snipboard.io/6iSPBT.jpg)
 * I hope this helps.
 * I also tried renaming my jquery alias from
 *     ```
       wp_deregister_script('jquery');
       wp_enqueue_script('jquery', 'https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.4.1/jquery.min.js', '', '3.4.1', false);
       ```
   
 * to
 *     ```
       wp_deregister_script('jquery');
       wp_enqueue_script('jquery-new', 'https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.4.1/jquery.min.js', '', '3.4.1', false);
       ```
   
 * and the image always show but it doesn’t show the arrows and it doesn’t slide
   because the dependency befor was (jquery) instead of (jquery-new)
 * I also tried to disable the enqueued javascript one by one, and the problem became
   more prevalent. As soon as I enable it again then the problem becomes random 
   again.

 * Hi [@markhamwalrus](https://wordpress.org/support/users/markhamwalrus/),
 * I’m not sure FlexSlider is compatible with jQuery 3. Does everything work if 
   you just use the jQuery version that comes with WordPress?

 * Hi [@kbat82](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kbat82/),
 * sorry for the delayed reply. Upon checking, it seems like the flex slider isn’t
   compatible with jquery 3, I tried the jquery that comes with wordpress but no
   luck… what version of jquery do I have to use? and would that pose any risks?

 * Hi [@markhamwalrus](https://wordpress.org/support/users/markhamwalrus/)
 * The plugin should work with the default jQuery that ships with WordPress. That’s
   the only version we test with. We don’t develop FlexSlider first hand (although
   we use a fork of it), so it’s not likely there will be jQuery 3 support ever.
