Revolution Slider – Transparent BG & Loop

Hi Ben,

I’ve been having a lot of problems with Revolution Slider. I set up a simple banner one slide with five layers (and two static layers) and have been trying to do two things with them.

1) Get them to loop and not stop at the fifth layer – General settings ‘Loop & Progress’ is set to loop, but it never does. Also set to Shuffle mode, but never does.
2) Establish a transparent background behind the slides, for when they are loading – I can never get rid of a colour in the General Settings ‘Appearance’ no matter what I do. I even tried using a transparent (blank) png file as the bg and that didn’t work – it always defaults to the colour chosen. I’ve tried every imaginable combination of settings and options both within the Slider settings and the Slide settings.

I’ve spent hours online searching through Theme Punch support and other forums and all I seem to be getting is that it’s a plugin or theme conflict. However, I tried it with a fresh install of both Virtue and Rev Slider on a test site (with no other plugins) and still I am presented with the same issues. I also did a bunch of searches through the Virtue forum to look for answers, but nothing. Has anyone else had these issues? Very frustrating…
