I’m coding an interactive grid effect background based on this link: https:\/\/codepen.io\/Hyperplexed\/pen\/RwzGKwy<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The plane rotation skews all the elements on my website so I made changes to the code provided.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I added this HTML to an HTML block in Elementor:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<div id=\"container\">
  <div class=\"tile\"><\/div>

<\/div><\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
I added this CSS to Additional CSS (Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS):<\/p>\n\n\n\n

}<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
I installed WPCode and created a new snippet (it is Active, code type: JavaScript Snippet, Insert Method: Auto Insert, Device Type: Any Device):<\/p>\n\n\n\n
const container = document.querySelector(\"#container\"),  
    tile = document.querySelector(\".tile\");
for(let i = 0; i < 1599; i++) {
  container.appendChild(tile.cloneNode());
}<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
With this code setup above, I can get the page to blink one color but it’s not functioning as expected. How can I fix this?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-17986082","topic","type-topic","status-publish","hentry","topic-tag-javascript"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/17986082","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/17986082\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17986082"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
