[Resolved] Parallax Speed or whatever?

[Adrian Cojocariu]

I was wondering if this theme could get even more overpower.

Is there any way I could get the same results as on this site ?

I mean the background is there on a section, it has it’s parallax on, but is there any way I can change the direction and speed on which the background moves ?

As of right now, the parallax functionality is very simple.

I do however have plans to include a filter so the speed of the scroll can be adjusted – this will be in the next version 🙂

[Adrian Cojocariu]

Ok that is great 🙂 It’s gonna make it the one theme and only !

[Tom]

Thanks! I’ll update this thread once I’ve added the filter with the code that will work in the next version 🙂

I just managed to get some code out of CallMeNick’s website 😀

Works great.

Till you get the time to set it up, here’s the link:

Awesome! 🙂

Hi, any news about having options to the parallax effect?
I have a fullscreen page header and the height of the image is the same of the window browser, so if I activate the parallax effect with the actual setting the background scroll faster then the content resulting in a repeated bacground image. Not so good to look at. How can I set the background to scroll slower then the content?
Look here what I mean: http://alberoweb.it/

Thank you.

Well I added a speed filter to Sections, but looks like I neglected to add it to page header.

I’ve just done that for the next version.

This will work in 1.2.93:

add_filter( 'generate_page_header_parallax_speed','tu_page_header_parallax_speed' );
function tu_page_header_parallax_speed()
{
	return 6;
}

The lower the number, the faster it will scroll.

I am getting the same as Aldo with my full page image.

I put the above code in the child theme’s functions.php and tried changing the values for speed but it didn’t have an effect.

[Tom]

That function will only work when 1.2.93 is released.

I can email it to you if you contact me: https://generatepress.com/contact/

Or you can just use a taller image for now 🙂

[Bill]

Oops, I didn’t read the above right. No prob, I can wait. Thanks again!

[Tom]

No problem! 🙂

[Alexander]

Should the speed filter be working now?

[Tom]

Yep 🙂

[Alexander]

Strange. I tried return 1 to return 9; and did not get any difference…
